Megan had a cold for 13 days in December - the last week of school and the week of Christmas. She didn't feel like herself again until the Monday after Christmas. She handled being sick really well and was even up for playing by herself for small amounts of time each day - which is not something she is normally up for doing.
We saw a loss of most of her new skills during the time when she was sick - not much eye contact, not much verbalizing, etc. But with each day that she has felt better everything has returned and she has made progress each day.
She is very attentive right now - paying attention to what people around her are doing. She is verbalizing really well and using new approximations for words we hadn't heard before. She is repeating the words she had been saying previously on request. She is compliant with requests again meaning she will do what we ask her "get that book and take it to daddy; go find "x"; etc".
The eye contact that we had lost again is back as well. She is doing really well again.
Megan enjoyed Christmas this year. She comprehended the gifts and was able to happily open them. She did well with facetiming with her grandparents so they could watch her open her gifts - each time she wanted to go grab the iPad we just handed her another gift and she was good to go.
Megan went gluten-free 12/30/14. This time around we were prepared for the withdrawal/detox symptoms and they showed up right on time on night 2. She has had the same symptoms every time we have tried to go gluten free and we stopped thinking she was reacting to something in the new bread. It only took 4 tries for us realize that it was detox/withdrawal symptoms.
