Megan has been helping me brush her hair. She will grab my hand or the brush and brush the front of her hair. She tries to help with the back but her arm isn't quite long enough yet.
She loves helping me with Sam too. She will come over and help me burp him by patting on his back with me. She gets very excited if he burps right after she starts helping. Last night after his bath I wiped his nose and she came over to help me with that too. She tries to help him with his bottle, but I keep telling her he's got that one covered.
Today we had a very long, almost 3 hour, doctor appointment to get custom made orthotics for her. She did great. While we were waiting to check-in a lady sat down in front of us with a bag of chips. Megan looked at her and did the signs for "food" and "please". Awesome. I told Megan that it was a great job asking for food but that I would give her some cheerios after we checked in and that just because we see someone with food doesn't mean we get some of it. The lady looked at me so I explained what had just happened and she offered to share with her.
At one point while we were waiting at the second office (had to take a bus from one location to the hospital for second location) a family came out of the back with a little girl in a stroller. They stopped right beside us and Megan and the girl just stared at each other. After a minute or two Megan waved to her. Amazing! Megan doesn't wave - hasn't for more than a year. So, so sweet. I told the girl that she was very special because Megan didn't wave to anybody.
