Today the girls had a follow up appointment with the audiologist. Emerson passed her hearing screening with flying colors! Stella had some fluid behind her ear drums (most likely from the last cold she had) and will have to go back for another screening. The audiologist wants to recheck her ears when the fluid is gone. We also stopped by the NICU for a visit while we were at the hospital. It is so great to go back and visit with the nurses and staff that took such good care of all of us. It is also nice to be able to show off our big, healthy girls!
Uncle Al and Aunt Cindy came to visit us over the weekend. We had a great time visiting with them, and the girls loved spending time with them. While they were here, Emerson started taking a few steps independently! Of course she didn't take any when we had the camera out! We just keep waiting for her to walk across the room!
