Sorry we haven't updated the blog recently... we haven't had too much to report. He is really getting to be a big boy! I say that every time I post, but it's hard to believe this former 26 weeker is doing so much so fast! He now recognizes his letter and numbers. He can't say them all, but he will sign all his letters and numbers. So his favorite book went from being Hand, Hand, fingers, thumb to the ABC book, both by Dr Seuss. :~)
With all of his new speech since the trach came out, he has now learned the word no. We have refused to teach him the word and asked the speech therapist to not teach it to him. So at almost 3, he has learned the word. Surprisingly he doesn't use it against us very much. Every now and then he will tell us no, but usually he uses it to tattle on himself. So when he does things that he shouldn't, we hear a "no, no, no".... but of course, like 2 or 3 year old, he still does what he knows he shouldn't do. :~)
In case you hadn't hear, we have had unseasonably warm weather here with highs in the 60s and low 70s, so he has really enjoyed getting out and playing on the playground.
