How could you not love this face??



Lauren has been so happy this past week. She had vent clinic on Thursday during which she had a really heard time breathing but they ran some Albuterol and she was fine. Current weight :22 pounds 2oz. We may need to increase her calories some more. She is doing so much more work of breathing on her own. We are up to 1 hour 15 mins off the vent 2x a day. She also saw the feeding clinic this past week. We are starting a teaspoon of food a day which she takes ok. I'm luck I have a nurse who loves to cook and is very excited to feed her! Speech therapy is also going to start once a week. What can a kid who can't talk learn in speech? communication. Sign. pointing. etc etc.
Alex is doing great. He learned to stand up from an open floor today! He walks now 75% of the time. He babbles all the time and said "bubbles" today but I couldnt' get him to say it again. Does that count?The eating front is another story. He hardly eats anything. and I mean maybe a bit or two of somthing and some cheese puffs. boo.
Thanks for following!
