Word Explosion!!

Even though AJ was sick this week, he had a very nice word explosion. He started saying "blue blue" for Blue's Clues. He started saying "cookie monster". He was also watching Dora the Explorer and repeated the path the map laid out for them "garden, gate, wizards castle".

I can't tell you how pleased I was to witness all of this. With each word I gain more and more hope that his future will be bright and "normal".

Just an update

Well it's the holiday season so as you can imagine I'm swamped. AJ has been doing very well. He did awesome durring Thanksgiving. We actually wound up eating a bit later than expected and AJ wasn't happy at all about that. He was walking around grabbing everyone by the face saying "EAT". It was the cutest thing.

I still haven't had a moment to take his holiday photos, so I decided to NOT do Christmas photos. Instead we are doing Happy New Year cards...lol. I really did plan on taking photos this week, but it turns out my baby has a really bad double ear infection. The cold he was coming down with late last week moved into his ears around Monday. He has had a fever from 101.9 - 102.3 for the last three days. Once we figured out it wasn't a flu we got to the doctor and got some medication. He should be all better in a few days.

He seems to be feeling better at the current moment since he's asking to eat and is playing on his computer.
