Still OK in Oki...

So everyone has continuously asked if we are OK from radiation. The base and the government here has assured us they are testing the radiation all around the island and we are fine. They have even sent pregnant women from the mainland here to have their babies on Okinawa... they're calling it "Operation Motherload"!
Anyway... today was absolutely beautiful! Peyton and I went on several walks today and on the second one I brought along the camera... the flower photos are from that walk.
Love to all...
Can't wait until your home Dada! :)

Eating one of Dada's favorite things- pasta!

I thought she was hungry... turns out she was tired!


You can kind of see her two bottom teeth there... they're only about a centimeter past the gums so far! 


This tree is beautiful. Not sure what it is... the flowers look like orchids.

Kindergarten!

Well... we've got ourselves a kindergartener! I can't hardly believe it! Time sure does fly by. Keira's Cochlear Implant was finally approved and authorized and we now have ourselves an implant date!

7 months post activation

So we are at almost 7 months post activation with Keira's Cochlear Implant. Since the 3rd mapping her vocalizations and attempted words have grown so much! She now wears both her Neptune and her Naida processors. She still prefers the Neptune but she is much more tolerable of her Naida. She is also wearing her hearing aid with her Cochlear implant more and more. She still doesn't tolerate the hearing aid in the car for long periods but she does great at her toddler class and during speech with the aid. She is becoming more and more aware of music and likes to dance now! :) Her sign vocabulary is steadily growing too as is mine! Just the other day during her toddler class she impressed me so much! They take the kids out one at a time and do a "focus" time which is similar to speech and lasts about 15 minutes. We were reading a book with Keira that had flaps and there was a frog and our specialist was telling her "Jump, jump, jump" & Keira picked up the bo...

Comprehensive

So Saturday evening we went down to Comprehensive park to check it out and see what it was all about. The park has a WHOLE lot to offer! There are TONS of stuff, we only saw about a 1/4 of the park. Peyton got to play her little heart out! As for Tabby, he's still on 6 pills a day. He seems to be getting some of his spunk back...we've got another appointment on Saturday for an ultrasound to check his heart. I went bow crazy and got Peyton this headband. I have other pics I will post later. Playing hard! Loving on Tabby.
