Well September is in full swing and we're getting into a pretty good groove.  Things are super busy but running smoothly so far.  The girls are off to great start and Benjamin has started a home daycare two mornings a week.  The process of finding home daycare was interesting.  Besides being super overprotective of Benjamin I was a little shocked  at some of the daycares.  I thought it would be an easy process, but at one point I was ready to give up.  Luckily we found an amazing girl who Benjamin adores.  The transition was super easy.  He went without tears the first day, I did not, but he was a star.  Everyday he goes he is eager and willing and he has been excellent while there.  Its been a fantastic experience.   We are so thankful for her.

Benjamin also started swimming lessons.  This is the first time on his own, without one of us in the pool with him.  The first class was a train wreck.  I didn't have huge expectations, but he didn't listen and kept wondering off.  The following classes have been better and he's done well...well for a 3 year old. :)

Tomorrow is a big day for Benjamin.  We have an appointment at the Developmental Follow-up clinic.  This is a clinic that follows premature babies.  They've been monitoring Benjamin since discharge.  He'll see a special doctor, nurse, and probably an occupational therapist and maybe a physical therapist.  They'll watch him and assess his development.  We had to fill out of ton of questionnaires for this appointment...they're looking at every aspect of his development.  Fingers crossed, this will be our last visit there.  I'll update after our appointment.

Other then that life is good.  We're chugging along happily just enjoying every day as it comes.
