Kathlena's Neurology Dr. Visit

I am happy to report that all went well today with Kathlena's appt. The doc concurred with us that we should proceed with opthamology first; that her neck issues are likely related to her vision and we should treat that first then, see how her neck responds. The dr. was super nice and even gave us paperwork for a CAT scan should the opthamologist think her neck issue is not due to vision then, we could go ahead and schedule her appt. for a CAT scan without having to come back to see him first.

Kathlena did so well even "helping" the dr. as he was examining her. Poor thing she has had so many dr.'s look at her in her little lifetime she knows the drill and even tries to "help out".

Just this week she has really started to talk more. She will pat herself on the chest and say "Yeena" or point to something and say "Yeena's" She points to each of us and says our names. It is so cute. I cannot believe it has been a little over a month since she heard her new name for the first time and already has "attached" to it as her own name.

Another new thing this week has been the recognition of ownership of things. Thus the statement "Yeena's" she is starting to catch onto the idea that she has "things". Although, while in Target she points to things and says this but, in the usual 3yr old manner of I want that to be mine. :)

She is such an amazing little girl...she just gets cuter every day!
