A lot has happened in the last 3 years. After surgery in March of 2007, Ivan made huge strides and completed 3 years of preschool. He continued speech and occupational therapy through the school and the hospital and also started daily growth hormone shots. This past April, he had his 6 year scans, they showed the metopic suture has closed again and now his sagittal suture has also closed. His second surgery is scheduled for September 7. Say a prayer for our mighty mouse.

One Month



The first picture was taken August 13, the second was September 16.  The difference is incredible, his forehead is so much wider and flatter and he has brow bones now.

We are all so glad to be on the other side of surgery, again!
He continues to make new speech connections and his vocabulary is increasing daily.  This morning he told us his yogurt was "slimy".  We are having actual conversations. 

Today he is finishing his second week of school. Kindergarten is wiping him out.  He has a great team of people at school working with him. We are crossing our fingers his transition time won't be too long.
