Speech

Connie's First Steps Service Coordinator came out today to rewrite (update) his plan. He'll be receiving speech services one time per month just to stay on top of his progress. He still is saying no words although a few times it has sounded like a real word. He doesn't mimic words. When we ask him to repeat us, he just grins and laughs at us. Hopefully by the end of the month we'll meet our new Speech Pathologist.

On the glasses front, we're going to look for frames on Saturday morning. I think it's going to be tough because most places don't have much selection or even carry infant/toddler sized frames. If they do, they don't accept his insurance! So, if any of you readers know of places that carry a large selection of small child frames you might save us some time by passing on that info!

Happy Fourth! God Bless America. Just think how blessed we are that Connie was born in the USA and was privileged enough to be able to receive the best medical care in the world to correct his defects.

Erin,

I thought I'd share this site with you: http://zennioptical.com/cart/home.php

I have never ordered from them, but I do know three people who have and were very pleased. All you need is the prescription to place the order. Well, the measurements of the frames, also.

I think this might be a great way to get prescription sunglasses and also replacements for kids.

I plan to order both sunglasses and extras for myself due to Eli breaking my frames last month!

When Eli gets his glasses, I'll be using Zenni for extras, I'm sure.

Can't beat the prices!

Happy 4th!
