New Toys

Hadassah has been doing okay the past few months. She got over her UTI and was starting to get back to crawling when a cold set in...and stayed around for about 3 weeks. We gave her nebulizer treatments and just waited for her to get better. It seems to take Haddie twice as long as everyone else to kick the ailments she gets.

But she's doing better now! It's tough because during those times she loses some of what she has gained in the areas of crawling and head control. But we have bought a few things that we think will help her out:

1. A Cute Pink Helmet. Many kids have these because of seizures that cause them to collapse. Some kids have them because they hit themselves. Haddie has it simply because she gets rug burn when she crawls! The therapist had never seen anyone get a helmet for that reason but they said it makes sense. We just got it two days ago and you can tell by the picture that Haddie isn't used to it just yet.



2. The Firefly Upsee

 My dad saw this on Facebook and so we looked into it. Basically this will help Haddie experience what walking feels like. It will also put some weight on her legs which is also good for her. We don't know how well it will work but we are willing to give it a try. It's in the mail and we are super excited to try it out!







3. Curly Hair. She has so much hair! And it's very curly. So last night we decided for fun we would straighten it. We made the mistake of posting it on Facebook. The outcry against us was great! Apparently, you all like her curls...and so do we...so we gave her a bath and they came right back this morning!


Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. Haddie continues to impress us and melt our hearts. God is good.
