Maggie turned a year old this month! She is really doing amazing and she brings is so much joy. For the most part she is very healthy. There are no major medical issues at this time. She is still very petite, about 15.5 lbs (7kg). Although she LOVES to eat and will eat anything and everything, she just doesnt eat a lot of it. It was the same when she was taking a bottle she never drank more than 4 oz at a time.
We are in occupational, physical and speech therapy. She is moving around really well. She is able to army crawl and sit up without assistance. We deal with low muscle tone but we work everyday on strengthening her muscles.
She doesn't talk much so we will be getting a formal audiology exam on her soon to make sure her hearing is good.
For the most part she is a very happy child, very curious, loves to play and has a great personality.
