New words

Rate this Entry
Ethan is saying so many words. He is actually talking instead of babbling. His speech is not always clear but he is actually really talking now. His newest and favorite line is, "I win". He races his trucks around the house with his sister and even if she gets there first, he says, "I win". I always tell him, "yes you do." He put on his Daddy's shoes this past weekend and said, "I am Daddy." It's nice to hear him using full sentences even if they are short simple sentences right now. Love, love, love that boy.

    I'm glad to see him doing better with his speech. He has missed therapy 4 weeks in a row now. The insurance is taking forever to approve therapy. They used to be fast but the last year or so we have had a lot of trouble waiting on approvals.

    He is making progress! I saw a picture of him and you posted on facebook this morning on the CHERUBS page...he is a cutie pie! I love that he is using small sentences. Hope the insurance kicks in soon for approval. Ethan is always a winner in my book!

    Thank you all. I don't know how he got so big getting his nutrition from a feeding tube. They always make sure he is well up on the growth curve. At his last appointment he was at the 95th percentile for his weight. All those extra calories really do pack on the weight and growth. It doens't hurt that he had an uncle (now deceased) who was a very tall, large man. His hair grows faster than we can keep up with it. He got a haircut last weekend. He hated it as usual. They always try to give him a sucker to get his attention off the haircut. I don't even tell them anymore that it isn't going to work because he's not going to eat it. I let him pick one in the hopes that he will unwrap it and chow down. One day he will. Tracy, you have always been so encouraging. Thank you for that. This is what you were meant to do. I hope Ian and all the family are doing well.
