Blocks, Frogs and Unicorns: A Mae Update

I've been meaning to write a Mae update for a while now, since she's barreling past milestones just about every day.  I actually caught my favorite moment of the week on my camera when I glanced over and saw that she was stacking blocks.  I don't think I've ever seen her stack blocks in her entire life.  I've seen her destroy plenty of cities that her sister has built, so I was shocked when I glanced over and say this (and see if you can catch Patrick say "Aggie!" as he hands her a block at the beginning of the video):

Here are a few of my other favorite moments from the past week:

At the start of the week Mae was playing in the bath pretending to be a mermaid.  She was giggling and keeping her feet together and laughing when I would say they were her little fins and pretending to swim around the tub.  A few minutes later she looked at me and, in a clear little voice said:  "Ribbit!  Ribbit!"  "You're a frog now?"  I asked her.  She looked at me with a glimmer  in her eye and said:  "Hop!  Hop!  Hop!"

Mae's unicorn is so special I had to use the
"magic" mode on my camera to add a little
bit of sparkle to this shot...

She and her favorite unicorn have also been having a lot of fun.  Two mornings ago she ran across the room to her unicorn and said:  "Ride!"  After hoping on him (he's tiny!) she said:  "Go!!!!  Run!!!!" and after a pause "Away!"

She's also been giving me high fives and saying "Pat!" when she does it.  The word "Pat" is usually followed with a giggle and a glance at her brother, so it seems like she knows that the word sounds like his name.

She's also excited for therapy to begin each morning and I find myself shocked every time I glance into the room and see her sitting in her little chair doing activities!  I can hardly believe it's only been a month since therapy began!
