So it has been awhile since I've updated either one of our blogs. :/ Life has just gotten in the way.
But here I am to let you know what is going on in the life of Trio!! Well first off Trio's talking seems to have exploded!! He is talking all the time and most of it is understandable! I'm sure we probably still need to think about getting a speech therapist to work with him but for now we're going to let him enjoy the summer and come August we will look into it. But yes he is talking even more and it's so much fun! One of his favorite phrases is "You're home!!" when someone walks into the house. It's so cute. The first time I heard it was when I came home from work. Yeah....apparently he had a late nap that day so he was up at 2:30 when I walked in. Still sweet to hear...but wouldn't want to make it a habit while I'm on this schedule.
Potty training is...meh. I'll admit it I gave up for now. I mean every time we sat him on the potty he would cry and throw a fit and I was like "Well this can't be healthy." Believe me I want him potty trained I am so over diapers but I don't want to scar or force him because I do know that in the long run that will just hurt him even worse and make it take longer. So once again we'll wait and try a little later to see if he's ready. Although by 4 (God forbid) if he's not I'm not really gonna care if he throws a fit he's gonna start going there, even if I have to do potty boot camp to get it done.
And with summer being here our favorite pastime is swimming! He LOVES to swim! Such a little waterbug and he doesn't just stay in the steps or in the shallow end. He will walk around the pool and get in at the deep end (arm floaties and supervisors are around no worries) and just sit there and kick and swim and float. It's so awesome that he loves to swim because I am such a water person that I don't know how I would react if my kid wasn't! The only thing now is that every time he changes the first words out of his mouth are "Going swimming?" /sigh No son we can't swim all day every day. LOL.
And that's about it for now! A brief but compacted update on my little man. I will try to be more diligent this summer. I know I will be posting soon because it is almost time to see the cardiologist and I am very excited to see how he is doing after the great visit we had last time. Til then faithful readers!!
great update, paige! have you and albert looked into the headstart kindergarten program? i recently read that it is now open to everybody, and it might be a great way to get trio help with speech and give him a social/play/learning outlet at the same time. i think it's only a few hours a day...maybe 8:30 to 11:30. we are finding that preschools here in hk are only 3 hours long, and it works SO much better than the 4 or 5 hour days we had with preschools in tx.
ReplyDeleteWe are looking into it actually! Albert's grandma works for them so we're trying to get the ins and outs info from her so we can possibly start him in the Fall.
