AJ has picked up 2 more words!! He now says "Oobi" and "lollypop". Oobi is a hand puppet show on noggin, and lollypop is obvious. I'm always so happy when he gets more words. He's also been telling me to "sit"...lol.
He's such a sweet boy, I can't wait to just sit and have conversations with him. God I hope that day will come soon. He's been through so much and desirves a chance to have the best life possible. I can't live forever, but I can't "go" without knowing if he'll be ok.
DH and I have to work on our wills so I"ve been thinking a lot about what will happen to my "baby" when I'm gone. I have to admit I'm more scared of leaving him alone than actually going.

7/17
Well I think by the end of the summer we will have jumpped over a HUGE hurdle. Dare I say/type it? Sure I will!!
I think by the start of the new school year my sweet little boy may be potty trained!!!!!
I know, I know, I may also be jinxing myself, but I'm so hopefull. This just has to happen. This past weekend my not so little boy was in big boy underwear and and had no accidents (that i know of). I was so so proud of him. He even started going to the bathroom by himself a few times, so that is such a promising thing. He does still wet at night, but that's because he insists on having 4oz of milk still, but with any luck by next month we can stop that too.
He has also been verbalizing more, He can say so many words now. Now I'm not saying he can speak clearly but I understand what he is saying. He still signs more, help, and eat, but he says eat, milk, pee pee, cookie, yes, and ketchup. He can say quite a few other word, but those are the words he uses regularly and appropriately.
I can't wait for the day where I can have a conversation with my baby. It doesn't have to be a long conversation, just a simple back and forth small conversation. I swear I'd call out of work and cry tears of joy....lol. All after I called the entire world and bragged....lol.

7/4
HAPPY 4th of JULY!!
Today was very nice. We had a family bbq at our house. It's hard to believe we've been in here for 1yr already. I love this house, but there are so many things to fix and update that sometimes it gets to be a bit overwhelming. But AJ has a yard to run around in and a safe home environment, so it makes all of the house stress worth it in the end.
Yesterday I took AJ and Bryanna (my 9yr old niece) to see fireworks on the waterfront. Bryanna had a great time. AJ on the other hand had multiple meltdowns. Long story short I twisted my ankle trying to chase him down and catch him before he ran into the street. I did catch him by the way...lol. We stayed in the car while Bryanna enjoyed the free concert. But when the time came for the fireworks, he sat on top of my car and really had a nice time. Just looking at the excitement on his face made all those tantrums worth it. That joy quickly passed when he melted-down after the show and I had to force him into the car kicking and screaming.
You would think that after 3yrs of tantrums, meltdowns, and sheer "AJness" I would get use to all of the stares and nasty looks people give me. Oh well, he's mine and I love him no matter what, and anyone who has anything negative to say can kiss my you know what.
