Still on the road. I am thankful I have had a functioning washer for so long. You never realize it until it goes down, but hauling clothes around is not fun. Coming out Friday for a full diagnostic. Hopefully it is the lesser problem and not the more expensive, extensive possible problem. For the first time in my 8 years as a parent, I had someone recently tell me to 'quiet my children down.'. Oh, I grumbled for about 10 minutes in my head and thought of all kind of things I could have told her. They honestly were not being that loud. We were just sitting at the table eating and having conversation. I think JB would periodically get a little loud with his grunts. I can understand if we were in a nicer restaurant, but we were in Pizza Hut...Pizza Hut!. After my mindless grumbling, I started feeling sorry for her. That she could not enjoy the conversation of children, even if it were a little loud. JB continues to do well with words. One thing he has started doing, when he sees something he likes, he will say the word over and over until you acknowledge what he is seeing. If you cannot guess the word correctly, he gets irritated and raises his voice a little louder each time! Both therapists are very pleased with his words. When my mom was here last, he had very, very few words. He exploded with vocabulary just after she left, so will be fun for her.
