Toby visited the pediatrician today and was told it's time he got out and about.
I think I need to let that one sink in. 13 months later, we get to try to rejoin the world. It may be slow going for a while as his schedule is still restrictive, but here we come!
Toby weighed in today at an amazing 17 lbs 8 oz. Yes, that places him on the growth chart at last, at least for his adjusted age. He's still a little short at 26 inches. But what he lacks in height, he is attempting to make up in girth.
And his elbows have dimples.
He continues to show improvement also in his willingness to eat. When he's awake, he usually accepts the bottle and drinks at least part of it. We continue to tube feed the remainder. On the 21st, he will revisit the occupational therapist who worked with him previously on his feeding skills. He is also scheduled to meet with a physical therapist to address the large motor skills and get this kid moving.
I guess I better clean and baby-proof this house.
