Kamdyn putting "in"

There's a couple of things you will notice in the following video:

1.  My daughter ranting, because she is having trouble writing her name.  Just ignore that.  She really is a sweet, darling child. 

2.  Obviously Kamdyn putting objects into the bin.  When you have worked with your child for more months than you can remember on putting an object into another, this is a pretty big accomplishment.  Once she started doing it, it was like she had done it forever, and I had to remind myself, Hey, she just put that "IN". 

3.  Kamdyn is driven by praise and acknowledgment.  You can see her watching Austin and waiting for him to cheer while she puts blocks in.  She's not even looking where she is putting it, because she is so focused on getting the praise. 




And another video.  In this one you will see:

1.  Kamdyn getting SO close to pulling herself up onto her knees.  She just hasn't quite put it together yet, but the steps are there.

2.  You can see hypotonia (low muscle tone) at work if you watch her posture closely.  She will pull her body up straight, with her back upright in perfect posture.  Then, you see her body slink back down, back curved, and she is sitting on the curve of her back rather than her bottom.
