Go Max!

On May 29th, Max had his annual evaluation from Early Childhood Intervention.  He was evaluated last June  & found to be right on track (or ahead) on every category tested except gross motor skills, which he measured 6 months behind.  He started PT with Mr. Wei & finally walked on his 18-month birthday!  He hasn't had PT since then but we've had monthly visits from Ms. Daisy, his ECI case worker. This evaluation was really fun & went well!  The best news is that he DIDN'T re-qualify for the program because he has improved so much!  Yay Max!

His motor skills have improved so much over the past few months.  We try to go a lot of places where he can be active & climb.  His upper body is still a little weak but the climbing really helps strengthen those muscles he didn't develop.  I'm really proud of how hard he has worked & how far he's come.  He's so much happier now that he can {sort of} keep up with the big kids!  I love you Max!

Nathan McKay Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:37 a.m., weighs 5 lbs. 8.5 oz, & is 20 in. long Alexa Dawn Oldroyd Born August 4th at 6:38 a.m., weighs 4 lbs. 5.5 oz, & is 1 6.75 in. long We are so excited that they are finally here! The C-Section went very well & Alisha is recovering well, with the help of pain meds! Nathan needs quite a bit of help with breathing but is improving. We’re told that he may get his ventilator tube out today & they would help him breathe using a C-pap. He breathes ok on his own so he mostly now just needs some pressure to remind him to breathe. He is still in the highest level of the NICU but is doing well. He’ll be in there for at least a few days after we get to go home. Alexa is tiny but doing extremely well. Alisha was able to hold her while still in the OR before she needed some oxygen help. She only had to stay on the oxygen until 11 a.m. and is still in the lower level NICU. She should get to move to the normal nursery tomorrow m...

It's almost the end! I saw Dr. Adam last Thursday and I'm starting to spill protein and swell a little. But my BP is good! So we'll see what happens when I see her this Thursday. We may have to deliver early! I have mixed feelings about that because I really wanted to make it to 39 weeks, and my parents can't come until the 14th. But Sam is worried about my kidneys. So we'll see. Baby girl was 6.5 lbs last week. Even if she comes this week, she'll probably be about 7 lbs! Me on the other hand... I've gained 40 lbs! I have 5 lbs to go to be where I was with my other deliveries. Let's see if I get there! :)
