I'm taking advantage of Georgia's age (11 months at Christmas) to "cheap out" this year. She certainly doesn't know what's up anyways. And remember the box it comes in is more interesting than the toy itself half the time. I think I have spent about $30 tops--2 books and a pull toy. I know that she is getting plenty from grandparents and our siblings. In a few short years, her list of "wants" may well outstrip your Christmas budget and you'll be longing for the days when $30 was a great Christmas. LOL

Just things have been so crazy!! Last adjustment they said Leah only has 4 more weeks and 2 appts! So that leaves this appt this thursday, then last one in 2 1/2 weeks from now! 2 1/2 weeks left, omg! Wonderful news Her head is looking great! Cant wait to see the entry and exit photo study. We are still in physical therapy for the tort. Generally she holds her head in midline most the time and her neck is much looser (although the past couple days the tilt has come back, full force). I guess my biggest worry right now is her immobility. She is 8 months on the 13th and she has stopped rolling belly to back (only can roll back to belly) and cannot get to a sitting position on her own or get out of a sitting position on her own. She does sit with support though. I dont know. You can stick her on a blanket to play and she will keep herself occupied playing for a hour and she is practically in the same spot. However when she gets to her belly she cannot get off of it? She struggles and then cries and gives up. I am worried. The PT said her tone seemed fine, but that she is content and not very motivated on movement. I just dont know. Gut says this just isnt right?I cant believe christmas is almost here. We went to the mall yesterday to get santa pics with leah, but we left empty handed. This Santa was a mean old grump and I was not going to get a picture with Leah smiling and santa scowling and rolling his eyes. I was so sad after we left. Anyways we finished her shopping! I wasnt sure quite what to get! So we bought her the fisher price incrediblock toy, fisher price gym, and leap frog learning table as her bigger gifts. Then couple smaller things. Money is a little tight and she is young so I figured a few big gifts and a couple small things, plus all the stuff nana and papa bought, she is set What did you all buy? How old are your children? Hope we bought stuff she will enjoy for her age. Well I just wanted to say hi, hope everyone is well! The holiday photos so far are adorable, I cant wait to share holiday pics too If you have any input on the immobility, please share.Thanks,
