Dad and the kids
The Fox kids and the Sinema kids (execpt Lilly who didn't want to be in the picture) on an outing to Thanksgiving Point.
Blake at Thanksgiving Point.
Derek at Thanksgiving Point.Fortunately there hasn’t been as much to report lately. We are really busy but things are going well.
Brandon is rolling around and sitting up much better. We continue to work with him but we are very pleased with his progress. He is using both feet and both hands much more often. Even without crawling he can roll and spin. He gets around pretty quickly. We are concerned about his eyes and worry that he might need another surgery. He has an appointment this week so we should find out more.
The big news with Katelyn is that the dermatologist told us about a new drug that seems to be very effective for getting rid of hemangiomas. This new drug usually works quickly and effectively without many side effects. We are waiting to get approval from her pediatrician before we start. The spot on her lip has been significantly reduced by her current treatment but it requires her to get multiple shots every couple of weeks and it has taken quite a while to shrink it down to where it is now.
They are both growing. It’s not huge growth but we are pleased. We often get strangers asking how old our babies are. When we answer 13 months there is often an awkward pause. It’s funny because people will say all kinds of things that could be considered offensive but most people seem to fear that they will offend us if they say anything about them being small for their age. The other day, Amy took the kids to a restaurant. She was feeding the babies macaroni and cheese and Brandon was excited about eating the meat. Amy said that she was being closely watched by a lady near by. She finally asked how old the babies where and once she found out that were over a year old, she told Amy that they looked really young and she had been worried about what Amy was feeding them.
