Day 609 - EI Therapy 🧸 & Package from Juju 📦
Wednesday, August 31st, 2022
James had EI therapy (early intervention) today and Dad observed while Mom was at a Doctor's appointment. James is going to get the most out of therapy when we set specific goals we need to accomplish for cognitive, social, expressive and receptive communication, and his fine motor skills. A few of those are: pointing 👉, using gestures to communicate like signing 🤲, stacking objects 🧱, fitting shapes into a shape sorter or puzzle 🧩, participating in “nursery games” 🎶, displaying affection 🤗, pretend play 🧸, and of course drinking, eating, and speaking. So we have a lot we can focus on moving forward!
We received a box from Juju with some new shorts and a bunch of Mom's old schoolwork and artwork. James was fascinated with the tag on his new shorts and spent a lot of time looking it over. Last photo.
In the evening we did another flawless trach change. Everything has become second nature. Guess it is true what they say, once you do something 21 days in a row that it becomes a habit. We've done over 70 trach changes and over 440 trach tie changes. We feel pretty good about it! James has also gotten used to it as well and is such a good boy!
