I cannot believe it has been so long since I've updated Benjamin's website. I guess my life is a little busy these days. Ben is doing absolutely fabulous. He is now walking with a push toy, crawling on his hands and knees and he's almost up to 16 lbs. I started adding a scoop of his formula to everything I feed him and it seems to be working. He is eating lots by himself now too. He is able to eat chunks of food and chews his food. I still feed him quite a bit because on his own he just doesn't eat enough. Benjamin's therapist is doing such an excellent job. Each week she has a new idea and has been very helpful. Getting Benjamin to drink out of anything but his special Haberman bottle hasn't been possible. One day she brought with her a honey bear with a straw in it. He is able to drink from it! I was so very excited. He puts the straw on his tongue and then I give it a gentle squeeze. He instantly fell in love with his honey bear. Thank you again for all your kind thoughts and for all of your prayers. God bless to all!
