Friday James had his 6 month eye check. It started off as usual wait 30 minutes after your scheduled time, finally get called back wait another 15 or so minutes to actually see the Doctor. But this time it was worth the wait. The doctor does his usual eye exam with a few hmms. He then dilates James' eyes wait another 20 minutes, then the true eye exam, more hmmms and then after further testing and a second opinion from another Doctor his partner, the verdict, DRUM ROLL PLEASE! We no longer need glasses, yes you read it right his exam showed his eyes to be fine. How, not sure even the doctor was puzzled.
We go back again in 6 months or sooner if I think he is having trouble, such as squinting or any changes out of the norm. But to tell you the truth he has not been wearing them much these days to begin with. We put them on and he either takes them off shortly after 90% of the time or he looks over them. Which I mentioned to the doctor at the beginning of the exam. So for now one less battle. Now if we can conquer this eating stuff we are home free. We are so proud of him.

Away Far to Long
Hello Ocean, Here I Come!
Hello I can not believe how long it has been. So much has been going on and happening. We did however take time to take James to Disney Land for his 4th birthday yes 4 years old!! I can not believe it. He is doing awesome too, and hopefully with his past surgery he will start eating better also. He recently had his tonsils and adenoids out so we are hoping it wont be as hard for him to eat/swallow like he states it is for him. Time will tell, cross your fingers.
He starts preschool again 8/18 and I start 8/25 Algebra here I come. 2 more classes to go and I can apply to the nursing program I am so excited. Well I am going to try and post some of our recent pics from Disney and the beach. Take care and will try and be better about posting.

So many things, So little time
So it has been an extremely long time since my last post, hope I still have readers. Lot's to report, but it is late so here is a quick update, and I will try and write more, and more often.
James right now is sick, again. I say again because he was ill at the end of November, he has acute bronchitis, sinus infection and throat as well as ear infection, how about that and a bad cough. Poor buddy,He has been put on antibiotic and prednisone. I think he is improving already, still a cough though. Last night he was up all (we were up all night) with his cough. Poor baby. It really sucks because he was doing so well with eating orally and his tube feedings and was slowly creeping the scale to 29 pounds is sicknesses always set him back about a pound. Oh well, it will come back.
Preschool for James is going great he loves it and has many friends, he even has a boy named Jack that calls the house to talk to him and there 3, to cute. He has a fantastic time and comes home singing the songs they have learned and will tell me a little about his day, especially if another child had a problem he gets very concerned for them, he is so sweet, and caring. Hope it remains, why do they have to grow up? I still can not believe how fast time goes especially when you look back at pictures when he was in the NICU.
I am still in school and had a nice break but restart 1/17 with a pretty full schedule, wish me luck.
Jamie has started a new business since he was laid off from his job with the phone company in November, and so far so good, any one need a landscaper and more.... Wish me luck with that too.
Christmas was great and James got what he wanted from Santa, a quad motorcycle, battery operated of course or should I say this year anyway I know my husband wants to get him the real thing, but not while I am alive, ha ha.
OK that is about all for now, Happy New Year!
