Well I've officially been back to work for a week and two days. Alex has spent three days so far in the daycare at my school and he absolutely loves it! It's somewhat sad that he is not even a little upset to see him mommy leaving...well sad for me at least! It's much harder on me then on him since he adapts so well and is so social already!
New developments with his hearing have come up some good some not so good. First, he has on a few occasions pointed at himself when asked the question "who is Alex and where is Alex?". He is no fool though since he immediately starts pointing at himself first thing in the morning when I put on his ears he tries to trick me into thinking he is answering the question before it is even asked. But, like I said a few times he has done it. Also, he is letting me know when he hears new sounds more and more often. Today I began banging his spoon on his bowl of oatmeal (not sure why I did that) and he would point to his left ears indicating "I heard that".
Unfortunately, more then ever it has been a battle with Alex to keep his ears on. He takes them off often during the day, it used to be when he was tired but I'm fearing now there is another reason I can't put my finger on. All of his caregivers are committed like us to having him wear them 100% of waking hours of the day. We just need to keep him distracted I guess!
AVT tomorrow and I'm looking forward to it very much.
