happy with progress

The Minister's visit went well and agreed on the last weekend of May for Maisie's baptism.

The physio also visited Maisie on Thursday and is extremely happy with her progress. There is still work to be done to help Maisie reach out. Maisie can pull her arms towards her but isn't pushing them out.

In the last couple of days Maisie has taken more interest in sitting up and with a little help from Daddy to hold her she is happy to sit and play.

The physio is going to bring a ring for Maisie to sit in. The ring is to be filled with toys to support Maisie in a sitting position and will encourage her to use her arms.

Rolling over onto the tummy or back is still not quite there. Maisie is very close to being able to roll over and if she can manage to learn to reach and take her toys then the rolling over will become easier.

As well as the physio there were other visitors this week;

Maisie always gives Jim a smile - he's very funny

Tanya (Nanny T),Mindy and Joshua popped over for a cuppa with Joshua demanding ginger biscuits and his usual cheese sandwich

Mummy and Daddy will hopefully have a nice and quiet weekend. Zach is busy working away saving money towards getting his car looking and sounding the way he wants it. Meghan is in Edinburgh at a Model United Nations Conference where she will be participating in mock UN committees. Meghan's school is representing Palestine.
