It has been just over a year since the last post and boy have things changed! If you are reading this; thank you for not giving up on this blog. :) I will pick up where the last post left off; daycare. He, and I should say WE, love the new (well current) daycare. Miss Rose and Antonio so lovingly calls her (Rosemary is her name) is wonderful! She has four other little boys plus her own who recently turned 4. Antonio seems to love it there. She runs her daycare more like a school in a sense she keeps things very structured which Antonio seems to do well in. They go outside all the time and they go to parks frequently! She also takes them to the library everyone in awhile where they get to pick out a book to read at daycare. She is much more expensive than the previous place but most of the time we think she is worth all the money!
As far as speech goes, we started Antonio in private speech therapy just after his 2nd birthday and he is doing awesome! He talks frequently and often surprises me with the sentences that come out of his mouth with words I didn't even know he knew. They really are little sponges! The gal comes out to our house every other Monday for a 45 min session and she primarily works with me on how to encourage Antonio's speech. Starting this Monday, the 30th, she will start doing an evaluation on where Antonio is with his speech. The private therapy only goes until he is 3 then it goes through the school district. Her and I think there is a chance he will no longer need speech therapy since he is doing so well! We will see. If she thinks he does need to continue with the therapy then she will continue to come out until his birthday and then we will have nothing until school starts. Once school starts he will have to "go" to the elementary school for it. I am not sure how that will work; I guess we will see.
Antonio is growing up so fast! He just learned how to open doors last week. I found this out when I was changing clothes with the door shut and he walked right in. There goes bathroom privacy! He hasn't mastered it yet but is able to if he wants to bad enough. He also has his own big boy bed that we got him form Ikea that when he is old enough will be loft style bed. He loves it! :) He is 100% into cars, trains and the ferry boat, a.k.a the BIG boat! I will try to post some picture in time for "Wordless Wednesday"; hopefully sooner! Again, thanks for taking to time to cheek to see if I finally posted something! : )
