A Few More Adjustments

Well our 3 months until the next audiologist visit lasted a whole week :)  I was still concerned that Sadie wasn't hearing her "sss" sounds, so I decided to take her back into the audiologist for some additional adjustments to her hearing aids.  They put Sadie in the soundbooth again (#5), but this time she was wearing her hearing aids.  They determined that she was hearing low frequency sounds at 15db and high frequency sounds ("ssss") at 30db.  While 30 db isn't bad, her hearing aids allow her to do better.  So we adjusted them again and I felt very comfortable that Sadie was hearing her "sss" when we left.

Sadie has also started to figure out that there is something in her ears and she knows she isn't supposed to touch them.  So what does she do?  TOUCH THEM!  She has started to pull her hearing aids out.  I was REALLY hoping that we might get a pass on this and she would just leave them alone.  But apparently I am not that lucky.  Sadie is a very inquisitive baby, so it isn't surprising that she wants to know what is in her ears, how it works, etc.  Oh, and not to mention she is starting to test her limits!  Troy and I are going to have our hands full here very soon (as if we didn't already! :))
