Last week’s speech evaluation went great! Even though Lucas was born as a preemie at 34 weeks, he is right on track for his speech & level of understanding as if he was born full term. Phew! Sometimes you just need to have a specialist tell you everything is going well. Plus, it was nice to leave another appointment with good news. 🙂
Today, Lucas turned 17 months old. Lucas was “solid” for the milestones between 12 – 15 months. He’s already achieved a good amount of the milestones expected of a child between 15 – 18 months old. Since Lucas is constantly having surgeries which can sometimes put a child behind, we were a bit nervous on how the evaluation would go. Of course we shouldn’t have been worried. Our miracle baby likes to constantly surprise us!!!
God's Little Miracle 
He is one amazing little guy.
Thanks Steve. He’s our super star!
And he will only continue to surprise you with the amount of words he will be speaking everyday going forward.
He is going to have so much fun learning new words with you once we get home.
As a speech therapist I am of course especially excited to hear that his language skills are normal:)
Yvonne – Since Lucas is our 1st baby, we didn’t know what was normal. Thankfully we are doing OK. Do you have any favorite websites or books that we as parents should utilize?
