A Week Full of Appointments

It's been quite sometime since my last post, and I can say it is due to complete exhaustion. I've found that I didn't fully understand the different degrees of tired until I had two infants at home.

This week Emma has had an appointment every single day. Monday was lab work which shows that her liver enzymes are finally going in the right directions. Tuesday was with the pediatric surgeon. He was thoroughly impressed with Emma and how great she is doing. Wednesday was the NICU follow up, and they released her from their care because they no longer can do anything for her that the pediatrician can't. Today's appointment was to have Emma's hearing finally checked. Pat and I were pretty sure that she would probably have little of no hearing in her right ear since she didn't pass that ear in the NICU. Once again Emma proved us wrong. She passed the test in both ears. How awesome!!!!! Our hearts were just full of joy when we heard those words. They said that there are plenty of reasons why her hearing could have been delayed in that ear. One reason is the mild hydrocephalus that she has. Friday we have home health coming to check on the girls. Thankfully the weekend is near.

Next week we have two appointments with both girls, and then hopefully a break from doctor visits for awhile. I will post pictures when I get them downloaded from the camera. Thanks to all who still keep up with us.
