Day 2:

Sunday was our last day in Gainesville. Mattie completed another 2 ABM sessions. Sunday’s ABM sessions were sponsored by two of my best friends, Roxanne Anderson and Mindy Bennett!! Mattie was pretty tired after our weekend, as you can see 🙂

If you are interested in learning more about ABM, here is a great video highlighting the ABM journey of Cypress, a boy with Cerebral Palsy.

Day 3:

Monday’s are always a busy day for Mattie. She has speech at 9am and then takes a Gymboree class. Today’s speech therapy was sponsored by Donna Ottmer. Thanks Donna!!!!

Since starting speech therapy 5 months ago, Mattie has had dramatic speech improvement. She has recently been saying 3 word sentences and her vocabulary has really expanded. Here are some my favorite quotes from her: “Where Joba go”, “Mattie farted”, “How you doin?”, “Jimi Cat come”,

We recently had a meeting with our early invention program and they approved speech therapy for Mattie. This means that the state will pick up the bill each week (until she is 3) moving forward!! Pretty cool!!

Here are some pics of Mattie at speech therapy and Gymboree class!

I was not planning on adding a video but tonight Mattie was counting her “22 toes” it is pretty cute so I had to post 😉

As always, thank you for your continued support, love, and hope.
