    Rubber Duckie…

    …you’re the one… The one Noah was hearing in the bath tub tonight. With each little squeak he would laugh and laugh. Then I realized, he is HEARING the duck that isn’t very loud without his hearing aids in. WTH. How is that even possible? But I’ll take it and enjoy every minute with every little squeak and giggle in shock and awe.

    Did you know I have a sighted child?!?

    Because I did. I do. But hearing those words come out of the opthamologists mouth last Thursday was enough to make J and I well up. Numerous times. We knew Noah could see and his vision has really developed in the past month! He is a rockstar afterall! But just hearing it from his specialist validated what we have been seeing at home. But she kept saying, he’s definitely sighted and everything he’s doing is typical for a 6 month old. I should have recorded it so I could listen to it at anytime. Typical.  Sighted. Music to my ears.

I was ecstatic. J was over the moon. Eli knew something was about to change and was so cute and excited and he didn’t even really understand the reason.

    5 Months Old

    Today my N turned 5 months old! 5 months! Where is the time going? He has had a very busy couple weeks. It’s like all of a sudden he wants to start to “catch up” and do the things other babies his age take for granted and do. He laughs and laughs when he’s tickled. He began opening his mouth and chewing on his fingers. He’s opening his mouth more to cry. He took a soother and held it in his mouth for 1 minute. He may not have sucked much but he didn’t push it right back out like he always did before. His head control is getting so…
