Nana Dot Visited, Neurolink, Cleaning Cars, busy busy busy.

Lilli's Nana and Pops went to Katikati for an avocado meeting on Saturday and they bought Nana Dot back up with them so we have had her here for a few days. Lilli just adores her and they have a lot of fun together. Mum took her back home to Te Awamutu this afternoon.

On Monday we stayed around here and I pulled both Mum's and my car apart and cleaned them right out and then put everything back in. It took me most of the day and Lilli stayed upstairs and played with her Nana and Nana Dot.

Tuesday we went in to see Eleanor who does Neurolink which is a different form of treatment similar to chiropractory and osteopathy but different. It uses pressure points and special points to connect with the brain and find out what's wrong. Lilli has a virus that she got on the plane coming home and a minor movement motor problem which we are sorting out. This is all in the hope of helping her get back into her sleep mode again. It will take a few days to work and we will have to take her back for a follow up appointment hopefully before Christmas. It's amazing stuff - I just wish I'd thought of it earlier!!! So far so good, but Lilli still woke up last night and didn't want to go back to sleep so I ended up putting her in her stroller and 'walking' her to sleep and then parking it by my bed. Then when she woke I would just lean over and push her back and forth to get her asleep again. This way I managed to get 5 hours sleep. :)

Today Mum took Nana back home as I mentioned previously and Lilli and I made custard, picked plums, did washing, went into the post office, and got dinner partially ready. Max arrives tomorrow and I am excited to see him again. I can't wait to see how Lilli is with him. We will finally be a family together. :D

Lilli's latest achievements:

Get's on to her hands and then goes back to sitting up.

In addition to Baa for sheep, Bir for bird, and Ish for fish Lilli is now saying Boo for boobie, Wo for wowo (dog), Prit for pretty and Moo for Cow.

She 'reads' her books. She opens one and turns the pages, talking away, telling the story.

She can open and close her cellphone.

Looking over the back of the couch. She loves to stand here and jump! :)

I have to watch that she doesn't go backwards (see video below).

Cute outfit aye!! It was given to her by Monica in Germany.
