Amelia pics

So, I've been very delinquent in posting pictures of the girls, particularly of Amelia. So, below is a download of pictures I've taken these past few weeks. Amelia is in PT once per week with Children's Rehab for her torticollis. We've been seeing progress every week, which has been such a relief. She'll still have facial assemetry until she's a year old (and potentially a little after that) and we need to keep a close eye on any flat spots (very common for tort kids). In the next month or so we'll work with her therapist to determine if she needs to be reevaluated by the craniofacial team at Children's and potentially get fitted for a cranial cap. She doesn't have any significant flat spots yet, so that's a relief. We're happy that her range of motion is significantly improved, and she's slowly gaining strength in her right neck muscles. Amelia is a polar opposite of Camila - she is such an easy going baby! We can just look at her and she gives us a big grin and squirms around. Below I've tried to capture the many different faces she gives us. She's also obsessed with her hands at the moment, and is constantly with one if not both hands in her mouth. She's also quite the drooler, which gets a little messy at times! :)

Camila pics

Just a few pictures of Camila from these past few weeks. She continues to adore her little sister, loves for us to read books to her, is getting very good with her alphabet and is getting better with numbers. A couple of months ago bath time was always a huge fight with her, but since I bought her some foam letters & numbers for the tub, she loves "playing in the water". (I think I wrote about this earlier.) She's still not the best sleeper, but naps are getting a little better on the weekends (for a while there she wasn't napping at all.) She's a great eater, which has been such a relief since she was super picky there for a while. She doesn't like a lot of meat, but we're getting there!

A couple of weeks ago Camila fell off her stepstool and hit her head on the bathroom counter. Fabricio and I were initially more scared than Camila. She was fine, but got a nice bruise!

Poor, tired Camila

Camila went on a nap strike a few weeks ago, and this is what she looked like. Fortunately she's started napping again. Poor, tired girl!

Cutie Camila

I couldn't resist posting this - Camila in Dec 2008 and then in Dec 2009.
