Carly has been in therapy for months at the Marcus Institute working on chewing. Well this weekend she decided she would start eating pretzel sticks, Ritz cracker sandwiches and cheese puffs on her own without any of the protocols we learned in therapy. It has been a struggle to get her to eat anything where she had to chew. I guess we just needed to let her decide when she was ready! She ate 3 trayfuls of cheetos tonight and asked for more but I was afraid she would get sick so I cut her off. She had already eaten a bowl of ground up spaghetti and chocolate pudding! I never thought I would see the day where I had to tell Carly that she had enough!
