What fun Harriet and I have playing together. We went to the playground with mummy on Tuesday, and had lots of laughs swinging on the swings together. I'm not very good at staying upright, and I can't swing as high as Harriet, but I still enjoyed myself. I can't wait until I'm big enough to swing high and go down the slide. Since I last updated my blog I've had 2 more

days at nursery. I really have fun there, but rather than tiring me out as mummy and daddy hoped, it actually revs me up and makes me really hyper, so I haven't been wanting to go to bed until after 9pm on my nursery days! Whoops - I don't think mummy and daddy are going to be too pleased if I carry on like that when mummy is back at work. I went up to the JR on Tuesday with mummy to get my hearing checked. This is because I was very jaundiced whe I was in Special Care, and that can have an effect on your inner ear, so I needed to be checked out. The good news is my inner ear is fine, but my outer ear was not 100

%. I couldn't hear the quieter sounds. The audiologist thought it was because my ears were both full of gunge from having persistent colds for the last couple of months, so I am to go back in 4 months time to see her again and to see if the gunge has gone, and my hearing is back to normal. If not then I might have to have gromets in my ears to help me out - yuck! In the meantime, mummy and daddy have to make sure they give me 1-2-1 time to talk to me when there is no background noise to make sure my speech development comes on as it should, and isn't effected by my gunky ears. I think my speech is coming along just fine - I am very noisy and love chatting and talking to everybody. Once I have a few more teeth I'll really be able to say a few more things, and eat a few more things too, although I am getting very good with my finger food already - I can't believe I'll be 10 months old soon - doesn't time fly?
Fingers crossed you won't need the gromets.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you on Tuesday.

Hello pretty Bea. Looks like you had a super time at the swings. It doesn't seem five minutes since Harriet couldn't sit straight on them either. Lets hope it's just the gunk in your ears and won't need gromets.
ReplyDeleteLots of love, hugs & cuddles.
