Gideon is still doing therapy (physical and Early intervention). This is Sherri. She comes once a week to work with him and he loves it. He thinks its play time. And really it is. Lots of interaction and learning fun things. He loves seeing what’s in her bag for him. He does really well. He see’s Gaylen for physical therapy. They met at the park last week. Since it is a free service and they come to the house it works for us. We think he’s coming along just fine and this can’t hurt. Gideon isn’t saying many words yet. All our boys were saying some things by now (some more than others). We think me might yell for ADAM some. He’s getting a speech evaluation next week and might start that as well. He can go through stepping stones until the age of three. For now we figure it can’t be hurting him so we will continue. I can’t really say that I KNOW ITS WORKING OR MAKING him learn faster or anything, but like I said…. it can’t be hurting. 🙂
Gideon is getting big and doing so many cute things. He is a “mommy’s boy” for sure. Not sure how he will like the new baby in a couple months!
He has a boil on his tummy right now. If you have ever had one, they HURT really bad! I know it bothers him! Very sad!
Just started TODAY nursing only once. That will probably end within a week. He handled it pretty well this morning. He will be 19 months in 8 days.
He sleeps all night, unless he’s sick. Still taking keppra twice a day. Takes two naps still too.

Oh how sweet and funny about the bunny ears!
You're right…if those services are available, why not take advantage? I have often heard that later children in a family talk less and later than the others. You would think it would be the opposite because they are picking up words from even more people around, than the first child, but I guess it's because there are more people to do things for you before you even have a chance to ask! I really don't know. He seems happy and responsive otherwise…he'll catch up. 🙂
