ABA

I can't remember what I've mentioned on the blog about Levi's therapy, but his physical therapy was completed in December. He then qualified for 6 hours/week of applied behavioral analysis (ABA), the same play-based therapy Nate did. The ABA started today, and I like his new therapist, Caroline. The therapy is at our house Mondays and Wednesdays 8:00-10:00 a.m. (I realize that only adds up to 4 hours/week, and I'm not sure what the discrepancy is about but will find out about that this week.) The in-home aspect is nice in that we don't have to leave the house or be 100% "ready for the day" by the time the therapist arrives at 8:00; however, it also means that Lucy wants to be involved. Today it just felt like she was in the way a whole lot. I guess that will get better in the next couple of weeks as my involvement in the therapy lessens and Levi can do more one-on-one time with Caroline.

I'm very excited to have him starting in ABA so young. Even though we don't know for sure what delays he does or doesn't have, it really can't hurt to have him in therapy.
