The adventures of tader baby: Therapy

Both boys are enjoying OT this summer. They are still doing equine therapy, gymnastics, and Summy sees a counselor. Sumner is in the process of testing for ASD and ADHD as well. As you can tell from the picture, Jack LOVES OT! (quite a change!) he works with Kate and Summy with Kay. Jack really likes having Kate as his "own" OT. (Previews for eventual class separation?)

The story of how the tader tots came to be

When I started this blog, I originally thought it was going to be a taderbaby...we chose the nickname after the delicious spuds served at Young's Jersey Dairy...but quickly found out it was tader tots! At 28 weeks gestation my placenta started abrupting and I was briefly hospitalized, then put on strict bedrest. At 31w 4d I was let up for an hour a day. At 32w on the dot, I was re-admitted for bleeding and began a four day fight to stop labor which I lost on 2.15.07 when Jack's placenta abrupted fully. If I hadn't been at the hospital, we wouldn't have made it. Upon birth, Jack's apgar was 3. The boys spent 4 weeks in NICU and this is their story, and mine.
