Yesterday we surprised uncle David, aunt Lesley and cousins Josh and Anna for a little visit. Michael really enjoyed it when Anna played the guitar and Josh the piano. As you can see in the pictures he was really into it. Before we left, aunt Lesley took him on a walk and he was nice and tired for the way home :)

Michael and David. As you can see, he already lost his left hearing aid. It doesn't stay in....

Josh on the piano. Michael is totally focused :)

Anna on the guitar....

Daddy, his brother (your uncle) and you:

Here is a picture of Michael in the outfit that Tom and Signe bought for him. Signe bought this just a few days before her accident that led to her passing. We still think of her every day!!!!

Our friend Jeff (who was also best man at our wedding) came to visit us from Jacksonville. He brought Shiva over for a few days...

Daddy and his 'mini-me'

Michael and Shiva. She loves Michael. She constantly wants to lick his feet, hands and face. Micheal really doesn't like that much :)

Michael was laughing out loud when Jeff was holding him

Here are some hearing aid pictures (YES, the left one is IN his ear :) )

Just a cute picture of Michael sleeping in the outfit he got from his grandmother Jannie from Holland...

It was a nice quiet week with NO doctor's appointments, just PT/OT/ST!!! Woohoo!!!! On Tuesday, Michael, Jeff, Natalia and I went shopping and bought an area rug for the living room. Now Michael can finally play on the floor (instead of the cold tiles). We love it!!!

We weighed Michael on our home scale yesterday. He was 13 pounds, 5 ounces, so he is not gaining as much anymore. Even though he has been eating some solids, he hasn't been eating enough breast milk/formula. We are working with ST to get him to eat better.

Today Michael and I took a bath in the big bath tub. He absolutely loved it!!!!
