The first part of the video is of Oksana talking. A lot of people ask about how she talks. She has a significant speech delay. At the 6 month mark I did a video of her talking and I asked her questions to which she knew the answers so her speech was fairly clear. In this video you get a better idea of what her speech is like because she is trying to tell me a story. Here you can see the delay much more clearly. Excuse the messy hair, we had just pulled out a pony tail!
The next part of the video is of Oksana going down a slide. It is absolutely hilarious how slow she goes! She LOVES to slide but she is petrified of going down fast so she creeps down super slow!

She's adorable! I love listening to her talk. Alina speaks clearly but she's very choppy, breaking up sentences into weird bits.
Her hair is getting so long, she seems like such a fun girl. I hope we can get together for at least lunch or something on our trip by you guys!
Love your videos :) Could you please send me your contact info? I am a new reader, and have some questions on CP. Thanks!
Amiee, I tried to leave a comment on your blog but blogger is giving me trouble! I'd love to talk to you more about CP. Email me anytime...fourloraines@yahoo.com.
But what is exciting is that she can talk; can communicate and wants to! In time, with some therapy, she should make some real nice progress! In one year she went from understanding Russian to speaking English! Pretty amazing if you ask me!
