Savannah had her first Occupation Therapy session today. The therapist seemed a little concerned because Savannah's color was very pale and she seemed very lethargic. She recommended that we get a pulse oximeter for her so that we can make sure she is getting enough oxygen. Savannah's alarm also went off three times in the short time that the OT was at the house. We had to do a download a few weeks ago and found that her alarm had gone off 280 times with in a 3 week period. The Dr. said they were false alarms, but Chuck and I have had to stimulate her on many occasions because she still breathes extremely shallow at times. We are glad to have the monitor, but it definitely wakes up everyone in the house, quite often.

Little Charlton is doing very well and definitely has his own little personality. He always wants to be held and cuddled. Savannah likes to be held as well, but he is much more vocal about it.

Both babies have been doing tummy time and we have definitely noticed the increase strength in their necks.

We consider ourselves very blessed because they really are good babies.
