B"H Mendele has achieved sooo much!
In OT and PT we are now working on his rolling, trunk control and the strength in his hands so he should be able to support himself while sitting.
The good news is, more he strenghtens his trunk the less we see his tounge!
In speech we're working on cause and affect and teaching Mendele to pass objects from one hand to the other.

Here, have a look-see at some photos:

Mendele surprised us and rolled from his back to his stomach!!! In speech Mendele is playing the drums - to learn that his actions have cause an effect.

Trunk control...

...

... and hand strength......

... and rolling over.He is learning to catch himself when he falls (see that right hand supporting his weight.)
He has begun to hold his own food and bottles!
And he's still as cute as ever- kein ayin horo!!


Till next time...

Love Mendele.
