September 2012

This month was busy! I started doing my home visits for work, KB started school, PK turned one and had his activation AND second MAPing. PK's birthday will be in a separate post for two reasons, 1 - it's a birthday post, he deserves it, and 2 - Bryan has all the pictures somewhere....I have no idea where.

KB started his first day of school on September 6th. He was so excited! He is a peer model in the Cued Speech preschool classroom. The nice thing is that his classroom is where my office is, which makes dropping him off and picking him up that much easier. Life would be a lot easier if he could ride the bus, but they only provide the bus for those students who have an IEP, and he doesn't have one. So I have to provide transportation. that's ok as it allows me to see him a little more often throughout the day!

This is right in front of his school

We did take a short road trip over the weekend to Harper's Ferry. That was fun.

This picture was not prompted in anyway. It was very sweet to see this without a parent asking them to do it.

A long video, but I wanted to show off his receptive skills for cueing. In the beginning he is actually cueing about the light. 

I'm in trouble, the boys are already learning how to play "rough" with each other. Boys will be boys.

The funny thing about this video? Patrick can walk just fine now. He doesn't need any help. He just likes pushing the train around.

For some reason, PK found this hilarious. We're just knocking on the door of the picture of the house.

PK loves the kitchen a little TOO much. He does this whenever I tell him no, or get him out of the kitchen. It makes cooking time...interesting :)

Loving cheetos. Don't worry, I don't feed him junk food all the time.

Kiernan knew where all the parts of a bus went. 

This picture surprised both Bryan and I. We've never been able to get KB to get into color or drawing, so I had no idea what he was capable of in terms of drawing. He came home with this picture, and Bryan didn't think he at least drew the majority of that picture himself. 

So...to prove Bryan wrong, the following picture is a bad picture of KB's drawing of daddy in the sand. I watched the whole thing, and he drew a head/body, arms, legs, eyes, nose and mouth all on his own. Our kid is growing up!

He's walking ALL over the place, ALL the time now. So crazy
