physical therapy developments

Collin had a couple more appointments this week.. first we met with his physical therapist and he is doing very well so far!  At our first visit he could not track (follow toys) really at all, now he does such a great job!  Watch video for example :)  He was tending to favor one side of his head but after just 2 days of practicing with him he will turn his head fully from side to side to follow toys!  He also does pretty well during tummy time and he can lift his head.  His legs are a little stiff, so we will be doing some exercises to make him a little more flexible. She will continue to see him once a week to make sure he is continuing to develop his skills.

At the pediatrician Collin got two immunization shots :(  Its so sad to see him poked after a month of no needles and things!  But he handled it well and calmed right down as soon as I picked him up and gave him a hug!  He's such a little trooper.   He weighed in at 12 pounds and was 23 inches!   After seeing the pulmonologist last week we know his lungs are doing well, and the pediatrician agrees they sound clear. but he's had some heavy breathing/wheezing and it sounds like upper respiratory, so we got a referral to a nose and throat Dr. to see what is going on with that.  we'll keep you updated as soon as we know!

Here's a video of Collin tracking :)  and here is is lifting his head!
