So we've been a little concerned with Isaac's hearing for a while now, I finally got time to take him in to get it checked out. He's been doing 1st Steps therapy for a few weeks now(which he loves! This lady comes and plays with him for an hour every Thursday and he's doing better and better each week I think! ) We're doing it for some of his basic developmental delays, like imitating, and especially his speech...cuz the kid doesn't talk....at all! So just to be sure and rule it out, we went and got his hearing tested today.
It was definitely not what I expected! First of all, I'm wondering how the heck they're gonna get my soon-to-be 21 mo. old crazy kid to hold still enough to see if he looks up at a sound, or like yeah, he's gonna raise his right and left arm when he hears a beep with head phones on...Don't think so!! Well...shows how much I know:) First of all, the doctor lady was so awesome and friendly. Isaac didn't like the room we went into just to chat about his hearing problems...so I'm just thinking this is gonna be a huge waist! Well anywho, we then went into this little booth area and Isaac simply sat on my lap. The trick was, I couldn't talk to him to entertain him, so he had to be completely quiet. The doc would initiate sounds in each corner of the booth and a sound would be made, then this puppet think in a wooden box would open and close and light up and everything! It was so funny! Isaac thought it was hilarious! So actually, he tested really good with his response to the beeps that came on each side before the puppet box opened. So we're good there.
Now, the next step is I'm supposed to bring him in on Thursday to do another test that gets pretty much all the sensories in his ear detected. Tricky part though, they preferrably do it when they're sleeping:/ So momma's gotta figure out some crazy way to get Isaac picked up from his sitter that day right around his nap time so he'll magically fall asleep on cue on the way to the office.....mmm hmmm....like that's gonna happen! So we'll see how this works, but luckily if he doesn't fall asleep I just have to get him to be quiet while little things get PUT INTO his ears for a little bit. My son HATES things put in his ears! So I'm just praying one of his favorite movies will make him sit still and be quiet and we can get the test done! So just keep us in your thoughts that this goes well!
Anyways, yesterday I got to have a little lunch reunion with some of my high school girlies:)(@ Hacienda of course!) I always LOVE the times I get to see them!...We always pick up right where we left off...and this doesn't happen often enough! Although a couple of us are getting better at it lately:)
From left to right: Whitney(who I haven't seen in eons! It was SO good to finally see her again) Erin & baby Grady, me, Jamie and Katie(married one of our high school buds, so we count her:))
Can't wait to do it again ladies!! Love ya:)
(they even coughed at the same time! This looks so pitiful...but funny!)
So there's my goofies:) I'm loving watching Isaac being so fascinated by his baby BROTHER lately, and it's even more funny when you catch Kahler looking at Isaac and get the biggest smile on his face:)
