She says they don't count the time they spend in the hospital because they are not getting to work on developing these skills. So she has always taken 2 months off of what she looks for Jake to be doing. So your right! Bodie is a rockstar!

I too also did not stress over the milestones. I just celebrated them as they happened!

I have learned to take everything one day at a time and realize that Hope has spent a lot of time in the hospital and does get tired a lot faster. It definitely makes a difference. We have also noticed that where her gross motor skills are very behind...her fine motor skills are advanced...it is something her PT has shared with us when I broke down and cried because I felt like such a crappy parent because she is so far behind.Wodzisz Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03402962907991995167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411742878167645288.post-2928849715854059562011-03-14T04:02:05.754-07:002011-03-14T04:02:05.754-07:00Great post!!

It's funny, with my first son (heart healthy) I obsessed over milestones and had all the "charts" memorized. <br /><br />However, with Mason, I've done like you and just rejoiced in his life and am letting him show us when he wants to do things!<br /><br />Four blocks is amazing!!!BlessedMommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538746701334793519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411742878167645288.post-30521442648631482011-03-14T01:39:35.033-07:002011-03-14T01:39:35.033-07:00I love your attitude, I have heard and or gave tha...I love your attitude, I have heard and or gave that little blurb about mile stones many times and I am realizing that IT DOESN"T matter as long as they reach them at some point. I can't wait to chart JJ's milestones as I did my Emily's but I will try hard not to look in her book to see how he's doing compared to her. I'm so glad that Bodie is doing great you guys are an inspiration <3Kathy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16352340489358512265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411742878167645288.post-72222153246829769372011-03-13T23:18:01.352-07:002011-03-13T23:18:01.352-07:00You know, we never really thought Travis was "...You know, we never really thought Travis was "behind" at all. We had nothing to compare him too. With Addie now we are thinking she is either super advanced or we just didn't realize how much his health effected his development. Addie can hold herself up by holding onto my two fingers. She is so strong. The difference is so strange!Nicole DiCarlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13803487497260845001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3411742878167645288.post-47979413331389985622011-03-13T22:34:10.909-07:002011-03-13T22:34:10.909-07:00Stacking blocks?

Someday, he'll be running there, with you trying to catch up to him.Staceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236715948080857359noreply@blogger.com
