Today was a big day for little Kenadie, she rolled over from her tummy to her back. She did it 3 times and then she had, had enough. Growing everyday!Today we also went down to Ogden to an appt. we had with a program that is put on by they State of Utah, it is a neonatal follow up program. We checked in and then Kenadie was weighed and measured and she is the 50% , on the charts.....but that is adjusting her age to her real due date. She weighs 13 pounds 4 ounces. When they took her from me to get her height and to measure her head she cried, she had real crocodile tears, it was so sad. The ladies all felt so bad but they said you would never know that she was a preemie, she is doing awesome! Next we saw an occupational therapist, he got on the floor and played with her , he said she is doing everything that a 4 month old should be, Kenadie is also doing things that a 5 month old baby does. He was very pleased and said that we don't need to work on anything, just to keep doing what we are doing. Next we saw a pediatrician she looked at Kenadie's ears, eyes, listened to her heart and lungs, checked her reflexes, She said that she looked amazing and was very happy with her. She asked us about her brain bleed when she was born and I told her she had a grade one but it was resolved when she left the NICU. The pediatrician said well I think I will have you see a neurologist next, mean while Kenadie was blowing bubbles and talking and was being so happy, a few minutes later the Pediatrician came over and said after watching Kenadie I don't want you to see a neurologist, she doesn't need it. So we left there very happy with the results. As we were sitting there waiting in between appts we saw so many babies and little toddlers that were preemies and all of them looked like they had something wrong with them, I felt very blessed and happy again with the little miracle our little Kenadie is.
