Boot Camp Lives On

Well...Ana had her first PT (physical therapy) appointment and baby boot camp must continue AND increase in intensity (as if it wasn't enough already). The good news is Ana hit it off wonderfully with her therapist, Lisa. She worked with her for an hour and will see her one hour each week for now. We also have to CONSTANTLY be working her neck and trunk muscles. It seems that her entire body is beginning to tighten up and she needs to be worked with to not only straighten the neck out, but to open her fingers, reach for objects, roll/rock her trunk, etc.... Basically all range of motion actions with her limbs, neck and tummy. YIKES. We have this fun therapy ball now and a packet full of stretches, strengthing exercises and special holds.....don't be offended if I tweak her position while you play with/hold her. I'm told to be obsessive- one of my best traits!

Other than that we're having a great summer! We're really getting around, as you can see by the pictures and Ana enjoys every minute of it.
