The next day, Wednesday August 20, Paeton turned 3 months! Jodi, Paeton and I headed to Children's Hospital to meet Dr.Kidder, an Ear, Nose & Throat Specialist for children. He did a series of tests on Paeton to determine if she needed ear tubes. I guess I haven't mentioned yet on our blog that Paeton was born with a cleft palette, which essentially means that she doesn't have a roof to her mouth. This will be fixed by her plastic surgeon after she turns 1. Cleft palette patients have a high tendency of having frequent ear infections which is why we were going to the E,N,T specialist. Happily, we can report that no fluid was found in her ear and we don't need ear tubes as of right now...yeah!
This past weekend, we travelled to Oshkosh to visit with Jodi's brother Ryan, his wife Laura and their 3 children, Irelyn, Leo & Fern. This was Laura and the children's first time meeting Paeton and our first time meeting Fern. Fern and Paeton were born exactly 7 days apart, with Fern being the older one. It was so great to finally have the newborns together and able to bond. Also in attendance on Saturday, were Jodi's parents as well as Jodi's grandmother, known as "Gigi" to all the great grandkids of hers. We had a great day visiting with all.
