Alli had her IEP (Individual Educational Plan) meeting this week, and I learned something about Alli that completely surprised me - she loves the treadmill! On Monday, they had a busy day planned, so they didn't put her on it in the morning, and in the afternoon, she went over voluntarily, and climbed on the machine! What a thought - Alli LIKES the treadmill. I didn't think anyone liked the treadmill - they just did it because it was good for them. It wasn't even her "scheduled" time for it, so it wasn't as if she knew it was next in her routine. She constantly surprises me!
I threw in a picture of AJ's birthday present to Alli - the huge bear from the neighbor's yard sale. The next picture is of Alli eating her birthday cake - finally!, and then splashing in the pool this week. You can't call it swimming if she doesn't get off the steps! AJ was in with her, and pulled her off the step out into the water, and she walked back on her tip toes as quickly as she could back to the shallow water. It is still cold!
