It's been a long while huh..........

Well obvioulsy i'm bad at keeping up on these things.

Kaden is now 27 months and he acts like he's 5 . Boy do we have fun times round here :)

Well in Jan he got his tubes replaced because they were clogged consintly and so that would lead to infections we were all sick of it. So we got a new set. He has a t-tube in his left ear & a regular tube in the other. At his 6 week check up the ENT had thought his t-tube fell out so we schedualed replacement surgery for that. So we go in there Kaden goes back to the OR and ENT makes the insision come to find out that the tube was really there it just fell behind his ear drum and it closed over. So she still put a brand new one in there and we have't had ANY ear problems since! It's great!

He has also started speech thereapy although we only get to see them 1 time a month for 30 mins. But he's comming along sooo far by himself he says soo much now, he even says names! one of his therapists says he has really good closure and she can't hear any air escaping which is AWESOME! She even said he says the "g" sound really well and most kids his age can't so i'm happy about that. We go up to Portland in June later than his 6 months but all of the dr's are going on vacation & what not so thats the only time the scheduales met up. He will see,
ENT, Speech, Vision, Audiology, Social Worker, Nurse Practioner. I'm going to try to get the pediatric Dentist in that too, but not sure yet. As i am waiting for my worker to call me about his dental plan.

Then in August we are going to Arizona to visit Grandma, Heather, Yasmine then we are driving up to Sedona for the weekend to visit with Great Grandma & Grandpa, Uncle Scott & Josh. I can't wait for that it's been over a year since my mom & grandparents have seen Kaden he's changed SOO Much since they have seen him.

So not much has been going on. I need too update with pictures i know! Tomarrow we are joining the Y I hope Kaden has fun there I'm sure he will.

I'm gonna go pick up my house while he's napping..
