Mommy is feeling some better. Her voice is coming back and her sore throat and congestion are gone. She has had a bad headache today though. She got some emails from people saying they found it really enjoyable to hear the updates from me, so you may hear more from me around here. :o) I'm getting big enough to type! I'm almost 5 months old now! *grins!*

I have been feeling a little under the weather too. I guess Mommy and I are kind of sharing our cold/RSV symptoms. Daddy has been giving me my breathing treatments again and Mommy and I slept almost all day today. I had lost my appetite for formula for awhile, but now it's getting a little better. I've survived the past 2 days on Pedialyte and baby food.

Tomorrow I start Occupational Therapy (OT). My OT is named Nicole and I'm really excited about meeting her, especially since she's going to make the splint for my knee. Mommy and Daddy still think it's been causing me pain because I scream when I hyperextend it.

I will also be starting Speech Therapy (ST) soon. Speech Therapy for a girl who can't talk yet, you say? Well, STs do more than help you talk. I have a tendency to want to hold my tongue up like I'm waiting for Mommy to put something under it. I hear that's not the correct way to hold your mouth (I don't see a problem with it!), so the ST is going to teach me the "proper" way to hold my mouth. (Sheesh! I'm just a baby, gimme a break!!)

I will start Physical Therapy (PT) soon too. I'm sure I'll have lots of stories to tell you about OT, ST, and PT.

I would like to send HUGE HUGS to my Godparents (Ruben and Debbie) and my Godsister (Sienna). Debbie is starting her new job tomorrow and I don't want her to be sad. It is the first time she has been to work since Sienna was born three years ago. It is a big adjustment for all of them, so I just want to let them know I love them. :o)
