p. t.

jacob had his evaluation today for physical therapy. at six months, our pediatrician had a slight concern about his motor skills. he had no interest in rolling over or sitting...funny thing is, a few days later he turned into a rolly polly!! SO...i delayed my phone call to the pt but finally bit the bullet and went for the eval. it went well!! we got more confirmation that our little guy is a thinker - he likes to know what he's getting into rather than jumping right in. he's a thinker like dad and a bit more cautious like his mama.

the outcome is that we're going to be working on some stuff {ie...sitting, rolling...}and go back in a few weeks...i love how our pt really evaluated and sought out jacob's personality rather than generalizing who he was. we found out that because he was premature that his "corrected" age is seven-month-ish. meaning he should be doing what a seven month old would be doing rather than an eight month old.

jacob gave lot's of smiles to the pt AFTER a while. he's observant and knew that we trusted her and so by the end, they were buddies. i'm falling more and more in love with his little personality...i see God's thumbprint in him each day and thank Him for who He will mold jacob to be...and on those "off" days, i find peace knowing that God doesn't make mistakes.









{we're practicing!!}










fact: jacob likes small intimate settings
fact: HATES crowds...too overwhelming
fact: he loves his auntie änna...thank you for loving on me yesterday...
