Jared, Lucrisha, & Leylan

Sorry no pictures today folks. We have to delete some off the memory card...imagine that. Anyways this week has been a very busy one. Monday, Leylan had his first regular eye doctor visit. He was seeing a specialist before this doctor. He saw him three times. That was just to make sure everything was developing properly. Well at this visit I was told that everything looked great. Leylan will not need glasses as a tot and no eye diseases due to his prematurity. Dr. G even said he wouldn't have known that his eyes were that of a preemie. We don't have to return to see him until one year. Yet another doctor we get to check off the list for awhile...YEA. Then today he had his first Synagis Shot (RSV Shot). He will take this shot for 6months straight. At this visit they weighed my little guy and he is up to 15lbs 5 ozs. It was time for his bottle about the same time we had this appt. I was trying to feed him when they of course called his name. So I put the bottle on hold and went back. He was ok with it at that point. If you don't know Leylan, he doesn't take kindly to people taking his food away. I assumed we would be waiting for a bit so I gave the bottle back. Then in came the nurse with the shot. So I laid him on the table and he started screaming. She asked "am I scaring him?" I said no he just wants his food. I had to hold his little arms and she gave him the shot. He was still screaming and the little tears started to flow. Right after the shot, I picked him up and gave the bottle back and he was more than happy. She was kinda shocked. She said he did great. Leylan got to stay with his Marmee after that because I had a dentist appt. I had to have a root canal. Needless to say these days off this week have been nice being with him just wish it wasn't doctor and dentist visits.
Saturday Leylan was chewing on my finger and I felt something rough. He has started teething. His front two bottom teeth have started to come in. I was so excited. Time is going by so fast with this little man. He is almost 6months old. I can't believe it. He is eating cereal also and chewing and holding his own toys. Next thing I know he will be talking to me.
