ECI

Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) came to our house today to do an evaluation on Caroline.  Since she was born so early, we qualified for ECI to come to our house to work with Caroline's development.  Katie told me last week that she hoped that Caroline would be tired when they were evaluating her, so that they would feel the need to come often to work with her.  We would not tell ECI that Caroline has already rolled over a handful of times.  However, Caroline had other ideas.  As Katie put it, "Caroline put on a show".  After watching Caroline for an hour and a half, ECI determined that Caroline is at 2 months or better in all of her different areas of development.  Caroline is not quite two months old (adjusted age), so that makes me very happy.  In fact, ECI decided that they do not  need to come back to our house for therapy unless we notice a problem.  They told Katie that it is obvious that we have worked really hard with her.  While I would love to take the praise, I think the credit goes to TCH.  One of the great things about being at TCH for longer than we expected is that Caroline was treated by therapists the entire time.  Way to go, Caroline!  Are you happy with yourself...?

We went to the pediatrician on Monday.  She decided to take Caroline off of her premie formula.  So far, she is doing great.  She seems to want to eat A LOT more.  I hope it continues.
