Emerson found his voice! I have been trying to get it on video, but the minute I stick a camera in his face he stops talking. I will keep working on that. He goes to the eye doctor on Thursday. I'm not sure how they determine how his coloboma will affect him at this age, but I suppose they wouldn't have us go if there was no point in it. There isn't anything we can do about it but simply accommodate for any deficit he may have. He seems to track with it just as well as the other eye when we do one at a time and he doesn't seem to be light sensitive either, but it's pretty big so I'll be surprised if it's completely benign.

He has amazing head control for such a little guy. He also manages to move around a lot more than I expected. He almost rolled over from his stomach to his back a few days ago...he got on his side, but his arm got stuck behind him. It's a few months too soon for that! He will also spin himself in circles with his legs if you put him on his side and scoot across the floor on his stomach if you provide something for his feet to push against. I have a feeling he's going to be a handful when he really starts getting around! That's all for now. We'll let you know how is Dr.'s appointment goes!
