Update
Aidan is doing well. He's growing! He must be having a growth spurt - he's been eating A LOT lately. I can't seem to give him enough to eat some days. A couple days ago he ate breakfast and 20 minutes later he was asking for something more to eat and he kept on eating that. Amazing!
I was going to post pictures but I'm having trouble with Flickr so go check out my other blog where I post all his pictures, it's http://grossobaby.blogspot.com
I scheduled a screening for hearing with out school district the other day. The lady came to our house and asked a lot of questions and dis some observation. Developmentally he's where he should be. His listening is good but his speech is a few months behind. He's using his signs well although I wish I knew more to teach him. He picks them up immediately now so that would be a great way to increase his speech but his spoken vocabulary is pretty small. We go in for an appointment in a couple weeks to have an actual hearing test done on him. Depending on the total results of both of these things will determine if he qualifies for therapy through the school district. If he doesn't qualify through the district we may be able to get out insurance to pay for it.
I know it seems like every time I post in here it's because I'm having a problem with Aidan so I want to apologize for that and thank everyone for their support. My husband and I are still having issues and it makes it difficult for me to parent as well as I want to sometimes. Anyways, that's enough of my public service announcement.
Aidan is learning all kinds of new things. He likes to climb on chairs and the kitchen table. He loves to get piggy back rides and to climb all over us when we're on the floor. It's just so fun to watch him develop into a young boy.
