One year check-up

This first year has flown by. We went today for Landon's one-year-old check-up and shots. He couldn't get one of them - the one for chicken pox - because he isn't exactly one year. We had to go early because he had to have the next dose of the HIB and Prevnar before his surgery. He weighed in at 19 lbs 3 oz and is 29" long. We are having his birthday party this weekend at Nanny Tammy's house. It's going to be a "learning to listen" party. We figured it would be a good time with all his cousins around to explain to them about the implant and some of the things we'll be doing in therapy. It's the Baby Sesame Street party set so one of the games we are going to play instead of stick the nose on Elmo is stick the implant on Elmo's ear. Nanny came up with the idea to make shirts for all the kids to wear that have their name and then their name spelled out in sign language. They came out so cute. We'll have to take a picture of all the kids wearing them.

Happy Birthday Buzz! I wish we lived closer and could come to your learning to listen party!

October is shaping up to be a busy surgery month for our Ci friends. We just got a bilateral surgery date for Oct. 30. Kuan and Erin also have surgery in early Oct., if not the 1st! We'll be praying for Landon.
