Paige Finally Gets a Tooth

A few days ago Dad was checking to see if Paige had cut a tooth yet. He found one! The next day I checked to see if it had cut through and found out she had two teeth coming through. We were surprised because she never got fussy like Bree did when her tooth came in. It's so exciting to see them growing up so quickly. Both girls have started to babble. Bree sounds like she's saying "hi da da da da" Daddy is very happy about that. Paige will go on and on when she babbles. All this talk is very promising since many children with IS are non-verbal.
Last week the girls saw the Opthomologist to see if their vision was improving. He told us they have some farsightedness. He also said that Bree was tracking better and Paige was focusing better. Their visual development is as delayed as everything else. There is nothing he can do for them right now and would like to see them again in 4 months. So all we can do is continue to work with them to strenghten their tracking and focusing.
Their birthday is quickly approaching and everyone is excited to see them. We're ready to celebrate surviving one year with our girls.
