My cousin’s daughter’s girls scout cookies we ordered came in today. I am excited to say the least. 
I ate 3 Samoas and 4 Tagalogs

Just checking in. Feeling ok. Tired and sore but all in all ok.
They are 8 weeks old and growing like weeds! They have really started to pay attention to our faces and following us with those little eyes. They are getting their vaccines next week. I've decided to wait a day between each one so we have 8 appointments each a day apart
And another recent development- Valentine is starting to really enjoy music! It’s sad that Francisco can’t enjoy it but he knows no difference.

Well then I guess you have an opportunity and incentive to learn ASL
Do you have any support/help learning how to raise a deaf infant? I would guess like talking to a hearing infant, you would want to come up with signs for the same things so instead of sounds being related to nouns and verbs he learns to look for hand signs.

@Bruce, Cecilia mentioned that her father is deaf in a post somewhere so she has some experience with dealing with deafness... it would be beyond my scope of knowledge that is for sure.

@Cecilia's-herd Consider contacting your local school district's special education department. They are required to give support to kids and families with special needs starting at birth. Francisco being totally deaf or hard of hearing would count. https://www.doe.virginia.gov/early-childhood/disabilities/early-intervention.shtml
