Dylan's eye exam went fantastic yesterday...absolutely no issues with his eyes - everything is normal. Dylan will not have to go back for any future eye visits...I guess the next eye test he'll have will be when they start checking that stuff ihe starts school. He was so great at the doctor's office. The waiting room was swarming with loud toddlers with dialated eyes. He slept through all the madness. Then, when it was time for his exam, he only cried for a minute and behaved fabulously. I wish the nurse hadn't told me that the doctor uses a sterile PAPER CLIP to look at their eyes...crazy! I'm glad he won't need to go back.
As for Kaylan, she had her swallow study yesterday morning. She did great and it was determined that she needs to have thickeners added to her milk for the time being. It makes it go down a little slower so she doesn't get choked. She aspirated a little bit during the study, but it was towards the end when she was tired and lost some coordination. She's taken a couple of bottles since then, but today she struggled again. It's hard to be patient cause we are sooo ready to get her home and she HAS to be taking bottles to come home. She also had her 2 month vaccinations today. I gave in and signed off on the papers reluctantly....but the doctors swear that they vaccinate babies her size all the time. She screamed momentarily but is doing fine with a little bit of Tylenol.
We're looking forward to catching up on some rest this weekend and more visits with Kaylan. The third prayer request I mentioned 2 days ago was for my friend Lainey's little boy's surgery...it went well and he is recovering now. Thank you for the prayers!
I thought I would put some "then" and a "now" pics of Kaylan just so you could see the side-by-side change....God is so good!
Then..... (1 lb)
NOW! 4 lbs 6 oz.

A friend of mine, Melissa, directed me to your blog and I have made reading it a part of my day. Your family and sweet babies are in my prayers. It has been a blessing for me to see you live out your faith on a daily basis. Thank you for sharing.
