Early Intervention :)

The boys Early Intervention (EI) teacher came yesterday. Amanda is great! I am so happy we have such a wonderful lady to work with the boys! She came over right when they were finishing our carpet yesterday, so the boys were able to work on the carpet for the first time! She worked with them for about 45 min, and while she was here Nathaniel rolled over from back to belly for the first time!!!! About 5 minuets after she left, Aiden did it too!!! Our little men are just rolling machines now! While working with them, we have found that both boys have indwelling thumbs (they keep their thumbs tucked in when reaching for things and while resting). It is from a neurological disorder from being preemies that can be corrected by wearing a splint/brace while resting. Aiden's is much worse than Nathaniel's, but we will get it worked out. There are a ton of things that she assigned to us to work with the boys as homework. Next Thursday Amanda will come back along with the boys occupational therapist (OT) Tracy and she will meet with them for the first time. Aiden has been trying to say DADA, it comes out as a big long scream of dadadadada. It is quite cute. I will take some pictures next week when they are both here with them. We have been told NOT to put them in their exersaucers, walkers, or jumpers longer than 20 min a day because it is just not good for them developmentally. We have tons to work on! I will keep everyone posted :)


This is Nate asleep on the floor... he is all tuckered out from learning to roll over :)


This is Aiden, playing songs for us, he will be our Mozart :)
