Oral Intake 16.5 oz

We got a snow day today and didn't end up going to Sofie's appointment at the Special Care Clinic. The roads were really bad, so they rescheduled all their patients for tomorrow instead, which works out better for us anyway. Sofie has an OT appointment at Children's tomorrow afternoon too, so now we won't have to go two days in a row.

Tomorrow morning we have our OT session with Sherry and Shelly at 9:00 am and then Dana is also coming at 9:30, so the whole gang can sit down together and go over Sofie's progress up to this point and the game plan for which direction we head in next. I'm also glad we'll be having this meeting before our Special Care Clinic appointment, so I can tell them what our plan is going to be now that we've been doing the trial for 2 weeks.

Sofie had a bit of a slower day on her bottles, but ate her solids very well. She ate 3 tablespoons of pears for breakfast. At lunch she ate quite a bit of her carrots - maybe 1 1/2 tablespoons. She also had a couple of spoonfuls of my soup, and I also tried giving her some mac n' cheese and some sweet potato puffs. She wasn't too crazy about the chunkiness of the mac n' cheese, but she thought it was funny. She didn't eat the puffs, but had fun picking them up and feeding them to Gracie. For dinner she had some applesauce and some more carrots, but still wasn't a fan of the mac n' cheese. It's so good to see her eating at the table and really enjoying it.
