Her daddy is always sucking on her sweet little earsProgress! Little miss found her hands lately and has been sucking on them like crazy. Maybe not a big deal for other people's kids but this has been so exciting for us! She also has started to coo. Last night she was cooing and doing half smiles for 45 minutes. This is the most interaction we have had from her so we are thrilled!
Quinn also had a great experience with a patient this week that has given me a lot of hope. This lady has been coming to them for a few years and her daughter had bilateral Cataracts as well as a child so Quinn has been chatting with her about her experience. On Friday she came in and asked how Lila was doing and Quinn told her they thought she may have Cerebral Palsy, she told Quinn that they told her the same thing about her daughter. Quinn started to explain Lila's behavior to her and she said her daughter acted the exact same way and doctors were diagnosing her with all sorts of things. She just had to go to the school for the deaf and the blind till 2nd grade then she transitioned into public school. She is 19 now and is an honor student at BYU and the only limitation she has is she can't drive. I was thrilled! What if that's our Lila?! Another one of our friends met someone whose daughter had cataracts as well and they said the exact same thing, the doctors told them that their daughter had cerebral palsy, which she doesn't. I am so hopeful!

Oh this is AWESOME-I know I am not a doctor, although I'd like to think so, but this is really the kind of path I feel Lila will have, if not easier. That is so great to hear a story like this!!! And I'm glad she found her hands and is cooing-oh Lila!! AND I love that she already knows how to party hardy!! She's ready to take on 2011-go Lila! :)
