We are slowly getting back into the sleep routine and Molly seems to be back in the groove. My Mom arrived on Wednesday morning to give us a break and help give me some time to make all of the insurance/medical phone calls that seem to arise and pile up. My brother, Tripp, arrived on Friday night for his first glimpse at his niece.
We had a PT visit on Friday and she was impressed with her progress. It is always fun to show off Molly's newest "tricks"/accomplishments. She has a new "trick" that she did tonight for the first time that made us all cringe. People with OI have very loose joints, which allows them to contort their bodies in ways that only a contortionist can. She was able to bring her foot up to her mouth and even managed to get her toe INTO her mouth - it looked so odd, but she seemed quite happy with the accomplishment!
We ventured out for burritos for lunch and Molly was a trooper :). Tripp got to feed Molly her dinner tonight, which they both seemed to enjoy. We enjoyed dinner out on the deck this evening and had a nice BBQ.
We are beginning to evaluate if this house is going to stay our home, or whether we are going to need to build a handicap accessible home. It is an overwhelming prospect, but I'm sure some good things will come out of this process. We are just in the beginning stages, so we have a lot of research left to do to make this big decision.
My Mom leaves tomorrow (6:30 am). We're planning on taking Tripp to see Jordan Lake in the morning and possibly go for a quick swim. Life continues to be happy here in Mollyland... Yippee-Kai-Yay! Hope life is as good for all of you and your weekend was full of sunshine.
