Jailyn had her first evaluation with Early Childhood Intervention. Of course the two ladies who were at our home testing her fell in love with her! Jailyn was all personality and having a lot of fun having all of our attention. To say the least she exhausted when they left and slept for 3 1/2 hours. :) Through the evaluation of social skills and cognitive(thinking and reasoning) testing Jailyn rated 16 and 17 months - right on schedule! (She is 17 months now) Speech testing was not as positive, of course we weren't surprised - she tested to have the speech of a 3 month old. We still have Motor testing on Friday. Since she is not walking on her own we suspect that she will be behind there too. Nothing we can't work with!
Jailyn is still a perfect fit into our family! She loves her siblings and all of their activities. Today we walked to school with Kenzie and Conner - Jailyn was a little cranky in the stroller until we entered the school. She looked around and had this look like - "Hey I know this place! This is where everyone oohs and aahs over me!" :)
So far Jailyn likes to eat everything we have offered her with the exception of strawberries. She loves cereal puffs and french fries. She makes funny faces when she has ice cream but always wants more! We haven't notice her to be allergic to any foods - that is always good. We haven't tried much chocolate yet - I'm trying to be a little good with her! :)
Cosmo (our black lab) and Jailyn are beginning to like each other! Cosmo thinks she is pretty cool when we take walks with him. Jailyn has begun petting and crawling up to him. He's not too sure about that but has been very patient! Making sure he gets Mommy time helps too.
Have a great day! Hope to share good news about her next evaluation!
