Yes he can!! We went back for R's post op appointment for tubes last week and were very pleased with the results. The tubes are still in and doing a great job of helping his ears to drain properly. They tested his hearing earlier this year and just as we suspected R had lost much of his hearing. When he was retested last week he is back in the normal range!!! His babbling is expanding and says something that sounds an awful like "Kackie"(this is what JW called K).
He is also doing great with PT. He is cruising and loves to walk behind push toys. No steps on his own yet but he is getting stronger everyday. We also saw the pediatric ortho. this week and all is well. He is still not real concerned with R's kyphosis (bowing of his lower spine) and is still on a watch and see plan. We will go back in 6 months and they will take x-rays and reevaluate. His hips look great and the dr. was overall very pleased with our little guy. When we go back for R's 15th month check up with our peds. we will then plan his next MRI. It will be a year in August so we are thinking that the next one will also fall sometime in August.
Everything is going well and we are staying very busy these days. Hope to catch up on all the BIG events that have been going on around here. But for now here are just some fun shots from a rather lazy summer day!
