Ellie Update Feb. 2009


Sorry for the delayed update!
* The results of Ellie's blood tests in Nov. (which we learned in late January)showed no problems to worry about
* Her head size seems to be within the range of "normal" on the Asian charts
* We are currently taking her to a Christian reflexologist who has helped several of our friends, and is teaching us how to do the therapy ourselves at home

* Between physical therapy, occupational therapy, and reflexology therapy we are currently taking her to 6 therapy sessions a week (outside the home)

* Everyone comments these days on how much she is growing

* Her sleep habits are goofy again. Some of these pictures show her falling asleep while eating or watching videos.
* We also continue to do therapy in the home, scheduled and spontaneous. The last photo here shows her in part of her exerise routine on the gym ball, resting her head on the dog who loves to be nearby at exercise time. I hope in the near future to post photos/video of parts of her exercise routine.
