Well we went to the doctor yesterday for Noah's one year check up (A little overdue due to illness, etc.) We talked to her about the fact that Noah had never had a formal passed hearing test. She agreed that we need to make sure he can hear at all levels. Don't know how much everyone knows or doesn't know about audiology, but there are all different levels of hearing. Chad and I were just a little concerned because his language seems to be coming along a little slowly. That is the down side over having a school psychology specialist and occupational therapist as your parents. We worry over the little things. Anyway, we are going to the audiologist next Monday. He still only weighs 18.6 pounds and has not gained back the weight he lost during that terrible virus. We have since added some strawberry syrup to his whole milk to try to get him to drink it. He loves it now!! After he gets used to that texture, I will back off the syrup slowly. That whole milk should give him an extra boost of calories. He got his shots and appeared to hate being held down more than that actual needle...not surprising for our Noah!
We just got back from Texarkana. He had a blast running all over my parents' house. He seemed to think it was a castle and enjoyed being chased. Oh, and the stairs fascinated him too. Mom came home with us and I think Noah is really beginning to know his grandparents. This is the first trip where he has not clung to me! I think Donnie and Rosalyn's visit helped since it was right before Texarkana. We have some time scheduled this summer for him to stay with his Magga also.
A brief update on me...my appointment for my biopsy was changed until this Thursday due to technological difficulties. Please keep me in your prayers. Also, if you would keep my friends who lost their infant son last week to SIDS in your prayers, that would be good.
Our Noah is growing and learning every day. His Granda asked for a kiss today and he gave her a big open mouth right on her lips! It was so cute. Chad chases him around the kitchen table and Noah squeals in delight and runs as fast as those peanut legs will take him. He is so much fun. Every day hold a new joy as his mother!
