Wow, how time flies. I can't believe Ryder is almost two weeks old. He changes every single day, so I take tons of pictures. He is doing really good. The audiologist told us yesterday that he does have hearing in his left ear, we're not sure exactly how much but he does have hearing (yahoo!!). Their tests also showed that he has an ear drum which is really good news. We go to the ear specialist on Monday to see what tests they will want to run to determine what his ear looks like on the inside. They are saying he will need an MRI and a few other tests to see exactly what is there and what they will need to do to correct his hearing. But all in all we are feeling really good about the news from the audiologist and hope to have even better news sometime next week from the ear specialist. We are having a blast being parents, though the lack of sleep has definitely been an adjustment. No one really talks about the sleep thing after the baby is born, they usually just laugh and joke about it, but let me say that it has been the hardest part by far. It has been even harder than the labor was!! Again, thanks for all the phone calls and visitors, it is nice to hear from everyone! Please check the blog every so often, I hope to be able to update it more and more!
