We Graduated!!

We are proud to announce Colby and Austin have graduated from the neo natal program. We have had neo natal appointments since the boys were born. It's an all day affair and the boys would be seen by around 6-7 doctors. The kids are normally seen until around the age of 3.

Pat took the boys in for their eye and ear exam but they decided since we are close to May they would go ahead and do the whole exam. Everything turned out great so we do not need to go back. All the physicians were amazed at how well they are doing none of them had any concerns or worries. Colby finally hit the growth chart. He is in the 10th percentile. It's only taken almost 3 year but he is there.

As for speech, motor skills etc. they all evaluated them past where they are in age. I knew they would be fine and catch up but it's just nice to see it. Our only concern right now are Colby's teeth but they warned us that preemies often times have dental problems because their enamel doesn't develop. They said he might grow out of it or he could always have problems with it but they could not predict that. It's time for their dental cleaning and checkup so we'll discuss that with them.

We are having a nice weekend and can't believe March is already here. Natalie and Sean will both be having birthdays soon. How time flies. Natalie will be 15 and Sean 11. They grow up too fast.
