Recovering (all of us!)

We are finally headed down the long road of recovery. Callista from her illness of course, but her daddy and I from sleeping on a hospital couch, cafeteria food, and little to no rest. They released her Monday (20 minutes after the snow started, thanks again) with oxygen for at night if she drops her saturation. They didn't send us home with a weaning plan, but thank goodness for our wonderful pediatrician. We couldn't ask for anyone better to be on her side! He gave us the go ahead to wean, suggested we stop the antibiotics, and said that if he didn't know what Callie had just been through he never would have guessed because she looked so good. Now if we could just get our one year wellness visit it! Apparently you are required to be WELL for that.

It seems as though our little one has started growing and developing like a weed just within the last two weeks. She is now expanding her babbling sounds and I swear we are thiiiiiiiiiis close to saying mama. She talks non stop at this point and is becoming such a big girl! Her head control is developing nicely and she is starting to get some strength in her core. She has started reaching for things and touching things. Her whole body movements have increased by a lot as well. Miss Callista has had a long break from therapy after being sick, but next week she is back to working her little baby butt off. Her grandpa made her a therapy bench so she will not get lazy at home either!
