Surgery

Hi all,
Sorry haven't written in a while. Been kind of out of it I guess.
Nicholas is having surgery tomorrow at Children's Hospital Boston! He needs to have his Penis separated from his scrotum, fix the hernia and then do the circumcision. I am sure all will go well but I am still a little nervouse because he will be put under general anesthea (sp)!
Will write tomorrow when all is done!!!

New pictures

I have been away for a while just continuing to get used to having 2 kids and working full time. It has been hard to find time to even thing about what I want to write. So I have been taking some pictures of the kids and here they are

Early Intervention

Nicholas will be seen with EI for 6 months and then they will determine if he needs an IFSP. The advocate told me that I could choose two options: 1. have him seen for 6 months and then at the end determine if he needs more or 2. wait a few more months and call if I still have questions. I chose number 1 because I believe that every child could use extra help with everything. I guess that is the Early Childhood Teacher in me. So the therapist will call me this week with a time to come and visit with Nicholas! I will keep you posted.

work after maternity leave

Today was a busy day for myself and Nicholas. Nicholas had his 2 month doctor appointment. It went very well. He now weighs 11 lbs 5 oz and is 22 1/2" long. His doctor was very pleased with his progress. We decided to call Early Intervention to get him evaluated. I have a few concerns and the doctor agrees with me. He was on a CPAP machine at birth and then 4 weeks later was intebated for 8 days so her and I want to make sure everything is developing on time.

As for me, I started work again after being off for 10 weeks. I started late around 12:30 because of the DR's apointment. I have to admit, it felt like I hadn't even been gone. Some of the kids who are 3 years old by the way; decided to try to test me but that is normal. Overall it was a great day.

Nicholas is with my mom for when I am at work and that puts my mind at ease!
