July Already?

Its a Monday which means Seren is another week older. She's thirteen weeks today if my math is correct (and frankly, it may not be-Lance is the sole numbers oriented person in the family). Time is flying and baby girl is definitely getting bigger. She's not on any charts but she is still outgrowing clothes and looking bigger. Her hair is starting to curl a little, which, really, we all knew would happen sooner or later. You just can't entirely escape the curly hair! Several of her nurses agree with me that she smiles in response to certain stimulation which is just thrilling for all of us!!

Medically, Seren's ears seem to have cleared up but her seizures remain problematic. We are working with several doctors to adjust her medicine to try to get the seizures under control. The good news is that other than the seizures Seren seems to be doing rather well. One of her eyes seems to be slightly less opaque than it was at birth. We were told that sometimes this can happen. Her vision would remain restricted in that eye but we will take any improvement we can get. We do think that she can hear some sounds and perhaps see shades of light. I've been taking my ipod and playing it with the ear buds about four inches away from her ears. I think she maybe liked the "Rainbow Connection" but she was definitely not a Sinatra fan. Oh well-points for trying I guess. Tomorrow maybe I'll try some Coldplay or Elvis or something:)
