We feel so fortunate to have found a wonderful caretaker for Lauren on the days when I work. Barbara is Polish and has a daughter of her own (9 years old). She is incredibly sweet and loving with Lauren, which we love! I also enjoy having a lunch companion a few days of the week. Barbara has been making delicious salads for the two of us. It's pretty amazing...since Barbara started last week, I haven't heard Lauren cry really at all. Barbara is so great with little Lauren and knows how to keep her happy!
It seems like yesterday was a bit of a turning point for Lauren's schedule since she repeated the routine today. As usual, she woke up around 8am and had her morning play time for about 2 hours. But instead of going back to sleep, she stayed up for nearly 5 hours and enjoyed lots of playtime! She is much more alert now and making eye contact more regularly. No intentional smile yet, but I'm hopeful that is coming soon!
