                                                                  I am only 7 months old but I typically have a very busy week, here are some of the things I get up to.

Monday 09.00 - 10.30 0-2years Toddler Group at Herne Bay infants school, Stanley Road, Herne Bay.
10.30 - 11.00 Get weighed to see how bigger I have got (now 13lb 4oz)
 

Tuesday 09.45 - 11.45 SNAAP-EYS (Special Needs Advisory and Activities Project) at Thanington Without Resource Centre, Canterbury or
10.30 - 12.00 Swimming at Faversham where they have a baby and toddler time in the training pool
12.30 - 14.30 A group for pre-school children with hearing loss at Herne Bay allotments (once a month in term time)


Wednesday 10.45 - 11.30 Sing and Sign with Emma at the Hippodrome in Herne Bay. Samuel joins up to 10 other children and their Mum's where we sing songs and learn signing.
13.30 - 15.00 'Get Walking' where we meet up with other parents with pre-school children at the Central Bandstand in Herne Bay for a 45min walk. My Mum says they do a nice coffee afterwards at the Cafe Bar at the Bandstand afterwards (but I am normally asleep by then).

Thursday 10.45 - 11.30 'Gymbabes' which is the 6 months to walking section of Tumbletots held at Tyler Hill near Canterbury.

Friday 10.30 - 12.00 Swimming at Faversham where they have a baby and toddler time in the training pool

Saturday 14.30 - 17.30 Mummy and Daddy take my brother and sister to 'Stagecoach' Theatre Arts school in Canterbury  where I want to go when I am 4 years old.

I also see my Portage lady - Jo (when I can fit her in :->), my physiotherapist - Lyndsey once a month, my paediatrician every three months and quite a few hearing appointments  at the moment. Everything else is fine but my hearing is not so good, made worse by having glue ear. I have had lots of hearing tests so my new digital hearing aids can be programmed and I have just had mouldings taken of my ears for them.
Mummy and Daddy were amazed that you can even have a picture in the hearing aid moulding, they have chosen Mr Happy for me, only because there is not a Mr Smiler :->

Hopefully Rosie, the lady who runs the pre-school 'hearing loss' group will attend the appointment when I finally receive my hearing aids. She has already given my Mummy loads of information, and told her about the NCDS (National Children's Deaf Society) and the Kent children's deaf group. My Mummy contacted them too and received lots of extra helpful information. There are even fun days coming up which we plan to go to.
