This Past Week of events

This week has been very busy for our family.

On Monday, Ryan had an eye appointment and we got good news. Ryan was having eye drops put in his left eye to dilate it. We did this so that his right eye would learn to focus and stop the shaking. When we went to the doctor she was very impressed on how well Ryan's eyes were looking. We no longer have to give him eye drops. He goes back in 3 months to have another check up and they will dilate his eyes at that time to check the back of his eyes. Hopefully at the same time they will say that he still doesn't need any eye drops.

Wednesday was his last day of having home care therapy. It was hard for me to see this happen, Ryan has become very attached to this therapist and she just adored Ryan. Whenever she came out she would say, that seeing Ryan makes her day.

Thursday Ryan had his first dentist appointment. He did a good job. He was a big boy. He fussed a little bit when the nurse was cleaning his teeth. He really cried when the dentist was trying to clean the tartar off the back of his bottom teeth. The dentist told us that he has a couple more teeth coming in the back. So I now have 2 kids cutting teeth. Ryan goes back in 6 months for another check up. When Ryan turns 7 they will put sealant on his molars to help keep them from getting cavities. And then once he has turned 12 he graduates to the big dentist.

Another week in the busy life of the Hedbergs.


Something cute that I just saw while I was typing this blog. Tyler had a sippy cup with juice in it. He was drinking it. He then put it in Ryan's mouth to let him get a drink. What a nice little brother Ryan has.
