evals

we are closing in on one year for m&k - which i can hardly fathom. this time last year i was closing in on being able to complete my bedrest at home. if i had known then, that 4 days was all i would last, i would have stayed put. but the thing is, now i look at these guys and you would never know they were 31 weekers.

yesterday their physical therapist came for an evaluation along with the speech therapist. it didnt come as a huge shock to us, but max no longer qualifies for pt services. the lil peanut is all over the place, and has been for quite some time now. he is actually performing at the 14 month level in some cases, which considering his adjusted age is pretty good. he will qualify for speech services and we will get started on that soon. keegan was sort of on the cusp, there are some things i know he can do because i have witnessed it. however, his therapist decided not to give him credit for those things he is not routinely doing. this way she will still be able to visit once a month for the next 6 months. she is such a great therapist, and i am excited that we dont have to say goodbye to her just yet. keegan will also get speech services. i am so grateful that the county offers these services - and that they are *free*!!
