Jack is making great strides!

This past week we had the opportunity to meet with Help Me Grow, a program through the state of Ohio for children showing delays in any or all areas of development.  They met at our home on Monday morning to do their assessment.  After the assessment they shared their results.  Steve and I were not surprised by them at all.  Jack is showing signs of progress in MANY areas, but there is a delay in his fine motor skills.  He qualifies for Occupational Therapy services.  We have been working diligently with Jack at home doing what we can, so this will only be an additional support for us and another person to add to Jack's team of people who want to see him do great things!  Right now the focus is on his grip, lifting his arms above his head and working on tummy time for many reasons.  We are working with him and seeing results, so it's been great to see his development! 

The biggest news of all right now for Jack is that he ROLLED OVER last night for the first time.  We are SO EXCITED about this!  He doesn't have it mastered and we are still working on his arms after he rolls over, but he has the strength to do it, which makes us very excited. 

I'll post pictures soon.....I promise! 

Thanks for your continued prayers, support and encouragement.  We appreciate it all!
