Friday we went to a local park for a picnic with friends. It was a regular fun outing, but then we went on the little train they had there....and Peter LOVED it! We had watched them hitch up the engine, and listened for the whistle while we were in line, but it was once we were seated, and we started to move that Peter's eyes got huge with excitement :). I pointed to the engine and signed TRAIN, and said "whoo, whoo". Peter was laughing with the wind in his hair, and by the middle of the ride he was signing train (with just his pointer, but he was moving it in the right way) and saying "ooo, ooo". So fantastic, especially since I couldn't get him o say "ooo" at home ;).
I am working on a couple videos to post showing speech so far, and to document progress with one CI. After surgery this Wednesday and activation in three weeks we will get to work with two ears! I am excited to see what Peter will do with two CIs, though I am not excited to go through surgery again. At least we know better what to expect.
