Therapy

Once again Jackson has decided to surprise us and has started to lift his head on his own. Eric and I were hoping that he would be able to do this by his first birthday and so we are very excited that he has reached this goal. He still can only keep it up for a short time before getting tired, but he has held it for up to two minutes. Jackson is also rolling all over the floor and no longer stays on the blanket that I lay him on. This fall we continue to be very busy with therapy 7 times a week. At home we receive physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and teacher services. Then we also go outpatient for physical, occupational, and speech therapy. Some weeks I feel overwhelmed by all of it, but then I see how it has already helped Jackson and know that this is something that we need to continue.
