Avery is doing AMAZING!

Avery is just doing Amazing! She is walking everywhere and talking up a storm. Everyone we see is completely impressed with her improvements and we are too! She is getting so much stronger. Her fine motor skills have improved. She dresses babies, colors, cuts with scissors, drinks out of a big girl cup(when her crazy, clean freak mother lets her)she even opened her own presents at Christmas time. She still is falling quite often..but does not hesitate to get right back up and keep going! We found out the hard way that people with Pompe bruise easily and fast. She got her first HUGE goose egg at her daycare Christmas party. It stuck out so far and was just nasty looking. Then she fell over in the sitting position and bumped her head on the wall and INSTANTLY got another huge goose egg. We decided to Google it of course...and it is not uncommon. We just ice it right away to avoid some of the swelling. She puts sentences together that sometimes I still need to translate! We are very proud of her for being so determined. In her mind and ours...there is no other option but to be DETERMINED!
