She bonded so much with her therapists, that I took a few pictures of them on their last day together.
Amazingly, on her last day with Rebecca (from Easter Seals), Kaitlyn smiled on cue for the camera for the very first time!
Not that we are done with therapist, I wanted again to personally thank all of her amazing therapists that have helped her come so far:
Margaret Bourne (Speech and Oral Motor)
Miki Romo (OT, SPD specialist)
Kate Hemlock (feeding disorders)
Meeta Patel (ABA Feeding Therapist)
Monica (feeding Thereapist, CPMC)
Tom - Easter Seals Play Group
Steve Carrol- Easter Seals Play Group
Rebecca Sharpe - Easter Seals Teach
Jan Tartosky - Child Development - infant CPMC
Susan Stephens- PT
Thank you everyone, enjoy these pictures of you and Kaitlyn together! Your work is sooo important, you have made a life-long change in Katilyn to help her navigate the world ahead of her.

She is beautiful and has overcome so much in her short life. You do amazing job.
You don't know me, but I have a 26 weeker born at 14 oz. that just turned 1. She has some major feeding issues and I would really love to pick your brain if you ever have a free second (ha, ya right!). If you can, please email me at rikirees at g mail dot com
thank you
I have a friend who had a baby and did not latch properly so she wanted to pump the milk but it came very little amount. Everytime she pumped it came only one ounce or so. The doctor said the baby didn't latch so she could not produce milk but when I read your blog I was amazed that without latching you are producing tons of milk. Could you tell how you are keeping this milk supply so well? Are you taking anything which boost the milk supply?Please give us your suggestions.Your children are doing really good.
Your smile is just like your mommy's Kaitlyn. You two look lovely and happy!
