Lucy is a Toad

Surprise, surprise. I mean it she is one stubborn little girl. I know what you are thinking that with a Forbes/Stuart/Lovell background it was bound to happen to one of my children. Well it did, with a vengeance. I understand that she will do things at her own pace, but she will be damned if she does something she doesn't want to do. Our biggest battle...eating. She does not want us to feed her. She sees that spoon coming, and she clams up tighter than Grant's Tomb. You may trick her once to open her mouth, but it will only be once. She is a fast learner...me & Jake not so much. She will put things in her mouth, but actually swallowing it is a different story. Her therapist's theory is that as her upper trunk muscles become more developed she will gain more control over her tongue. I hope this proves true. At this point, she is still growing & gaining weight on the formula so we have time, but it will be a relief when we get over this hurdle. Funny seems like last year we were obsessed about Lucy & eating too! Oh well, here is a pic of the Queen Bee proving her point....
