Yesterday she held my fingers and walked 10 steps, all on her tip toes. It seemed to wear her out, she does not have a lot of stamina for walking, and her legs are so thin, I know she needs to develop more muscle. Her ankles and especially Achilles tendons are very rigid, not the loose joints I am used to with Meghan and Kara. We definitely need to get Amanda seen by an orthopedic doctor as well. She also desperately needs a PT.
I just loved her holding my fingers and walking, it was the first time she has for me, I think she has done it previously with her caregivers. Yesterday she climbed off the sofa on her own twice. She knows how, but does not attempt it very often. I am happy to see that progress.

Hoorraayyy for Amanda!!!
Yeah, Amanda! Those mosquito bites look so miserable!! Poor baby.
She looks so happy with her new family ! Wish I was that flexible, lol !
Charlotte and crew
She certainly has a way with those toes. Good thing she doesn't like to chew on them since she is so flexible!
I know you don't want to put anything toxic on your children but those mosquito bites look horrible. Have you ever tried Skin-so-Soft from Avon? Obviously it's made for skin and it's a great mosquito repellant. Give it a try!
I love the new header up there!
How cute, where is the video to go with this new thing??
