Our Hadley Caroline.....: July update

My at how fast this year is going. Our sweet girl has been home for 8 months now (seems longer though). Hadley went back to UC on the 16th and got her hot pink hearing aids and although she is still not hearing anything they are working her nerve to learn what to do with the sound it hears. This is one step closer to getting a cochlear implant possibly. She will wear these for 3 months and then we will move on to the next step. Hadley is signing more, and more which is amazing since we have taking her out of school this summer to stay home with the other kids. It's a little better on the budget too. The past week she went back to school when the others did, and although I was a little apprehensive as to how well she would do, she has surprised me yet again. Walked straight in the room, got in the line waved good-bye to me, and off to the cafeteria she went.
This summer she got to enjoy vacation, which I posted some on our main blog but I must say our girl travels well.

We went on a cruise to Mexico, and the Grand Cayman Islands and she didn't miss anything.... So hard to believe that she wasn't walking independently and now she is running around on a cruise ship out in the middle of the ocean...
