Today we went to the scheduled medical followup – a.k.a. NICU followup.  All premature babies are periodically checked for the first 5 years of their life to track development.  We’ve got several of these appointments under our belt already (see previous blog posts) and today was like all the others.  He’s right on track in every area.  The next appointment is in September and they expect him to be speaking by then.  Right now he’s making lots of syllables and expressions, but few words.  No cause for alarm, though.

Stats: 27 lbs, 13 oz.; 33 inches tall; lungs clear; heart normal; blood oxygen saturation 100 percent.

Included is a recent picture (this month) from one of our trips to the food court in a nearby mall.

By the way, October will be his second birthday!
