one year, adjusted (5)

Today, May 17th, was my due date in 2005. This is when Mason and Avery would have been considered full term ... long after their February 2nd birth. So, today they are a year old "adjusted age". The adjusted age is used often when working with preemies to assess growth and development.

 

We actually had no intention of doing anything special today, but Jenni picked up treats for all of us on her way in this morning. Mason had a cupcake with an elephant, of course. And because there wasn't one with a frog, Jenni thought a lion was a good substitute.

 

Somehow, Mason and Avery did more damage with the cupcake than they did with the full-size cake they were given 3.5 months ago. I guess that's an indication of how much growth and development has happened in that time.

 

And, honestly, we do feed them veggies too! They just don't have this much fun with them.
