Chile - Day 5 & 6


It has been another great 2 days in Chile!!! Abby has been working really hard with Ramon and trying new stuff each session.

Today Abby was walking on organza, taking steps on a large disc and walking up a ladder of sorts. She also took steps all by herself on the floor, stepping over 3 obstacles (balance boards). We were soo excited to see that she was able to do it herself!! It seems like each session Abby is able to accomplish something new. It is a very long journey but we are getting there one step at a time:) We have started to work more in balance with standing positions. After all, we need to stand before we can walk!

We went swimming again today and Abby was jumping into the pool from the ledge. It is a great pool and was very warm today with the bright sunshine!!

2 more session tomorrow and then our flight leaves for Toronto at 9:45pm. An overnight flight and then we are home for X-mas Eve! It has been a great trip but we are anxious to be home for Christmas:)

Thank-you to all our friends and family who made this trip (and all the others) possible!!

Until the next time....Thank-you. Gracias:)

ps. Hi Jill, Brittany, Pam & my YMCA friends! I miss you all and can't wait to see you in January! I love Jack's santa face that Jill painted!

pps. Hi to all my Grade 1 friends in Mrs. Beaudry's class!! I wish that you could have come along in my suitcase!!! Thanks for reading my posts. See you in 2012!!
