Update!

Caitlin has been making leaps and bounds with her development in the last 2 weeks!!! She can now sit unassisted for a pretty good while and catches herself most of the time. She also is trying soo hard to crawl. She can almost do it! She gets her legs going but can't get her hands going at the same time, but she just drags herself around on her tummy. She is really vocal now with shreaks and sounds. She is also eating more and more foods, she just tried her first french fry yesterday and she was really not sure about it! It was really funny!!!
She is loving her new daycare. They go outside almost every day, they let her move around the room, they use paint, they have all kinds of developmental toys to increase her hand eye coordination as well as to get her moving quicker! I love it too, the only problem is the hours but we are working around it just so Caitlin can be there!
She is currently getting over an ear infection and uti. We ended up in the ER a week ago when her fever just wouldn't stay down and she was acting wierd, we had already been to the doctor's office about the fever and they said she had a double ear infection so we started the antibiotics but because of the uti her temp kept going back up. At the ER they did all kinds of tests and she ended up with an IV of fluids with antibiotics to get her jump started to get better. She was soo upset at the hospital because she just wanted to go to sleep but they kept coming in doing tests, poor thing. We were there from around 6:30pm till 1am. It was exausting but I am glad we got her looked at! She is back to her old self again but doesn't like taking her antibiotics so we put it in her bottle! LOL, she doesn't even realize it is in there!
She will have her 6 month appointment at almost 7 months due to postponing it so she can get over all this stuff before getting shots. I will update more then!
