One Week After Activation

Brody's ears are like a one week old baby as of today! He is doing so good with his listening!! I could not be happier with his progress!!!

We celebrated Papa Brown's birthday this past week.

We had a relaxing weekend (for once) and really got to spend time "making noise" for Brody to hear. I wasn't able to get any good video, but during the football games on Saturday, Brody would startle when Jordan got too excited. Jordan may have a little issue about getting really passionate about football and sometimes even startles me if I'm not paying attention. So, he is pretty loud! Every time Brody heard Jordan, he would point to the light. This is still very common for him to do when he hears.  We are trying to redirect him to point to his ear by pointing to ours and saying "I heard that."

On Sunday, we went to Papa Brown's company picnic in Glawgow, KY. Brody was some chalk and a gift card for playing Bingo (or Jordan and Grandma did). He played on the playground and went in some inflatables.

We bribed him to climb through the tunnel with a snow cone. We are working hard on his gross motor delays. Sometimes bribes help!

Today, Ms. Paula came and worked with Brody. He got some good responses with her. The video is a little long...sorry! Grandma added some editing to it too :)




And a little video of Bear so he doesn't feel left out!
