Getting Excited for Christmas!

N points at each snowman's and penguin's nose as she goes around the house these past few days and occasionally touches her nose afterwards. It's pretty cute.
And yes, she still goes for the camera whenever she gets a chance!
This is N 'laying claim' to presents that are not hers. She's been really good about the presents that are out; probably because she hasn't figured out that whole unwrapping thing yet. Although, this pink velour jumpsuit is an early gift from G'ma.
That is sure to change this coming week!
She is doing even better with her new processors. We've been trying to not use her pilot caps but the processors kept falling off her ears and would hang by the magnet. Yes, she could still 'hear' this way but its better for localizing if they are on her ears. We are trying out a different double sided tape with some luck if we can keep her hair out of the way.

N can hear!

N got activated just before Thanksgiving. She's doing really well with adjusting to everything. A few things have freaked her out a bit but overall she's doing great! She has an audiology appointment every two weeks for the time being to re 'map' her processors. The re'mapping' will be on going but the appointments will gradually space further and further apart. She is babbling with more sounds everyday.
These pics are from us attempting to get a decent pic of her in her Christmas dress for our holiday cards. Between goofing around, processors falling off her ears and breaking in new molars we settled on a pic from the next post down.

It's been so long!

Here are some pics playing around outside. These are from between the surgery and being activated, thus no hearing devices.

N got this jacket actually as a baby shower gift from a friend of who does the embroidery...see you guessed the size perfectly! This has pretty much been her fall jacket.


This cute pic ended up on our christmas card this year.
