11 Months Old

Lynnea is now eleven months old. She still refuses to roll over, but she continues to make strides in her motor skills in general. This week she's been doing this cute little "butt bounce" -- she lays on the floor on her back, puts her feet on the floor and pushes her butt up in the air repeatedly. She thinks it's really funny. We're waiting for this to become more of a "scoot" than just a "bounce." She also still refuses to let food, or anything that she thinks might be food, anywhere near her mouth most of the time, though today she was willing to gnaw on an apple and on a carrot stick for awhile. She's teething, so I'm sure the apple and carrot felt pretty good against her tender gums. As far as her health goes, her sat's have been staying up in her normal range again, but we'll see if they stay that way now that we're back to only giving her nebulizer treatments when she sounds wheezy (we'd been doing it three times a day since Friday because that's what her pediatrician told us to do to help clear out her lungs), and now that her five day course of steroids are done (also to help clear her lungs). The combination of teething and being on the steroid has made sleeping difficult for her (and everyone else in the house...). Hopefully, she will find a way to sleep peacefully again sometime soon.
