Far Far BEHIND!!

Once again, I am soooo very far behind that I have been receiving emails and phone calls about the lack of info on this blog!! :-) Its good to be reminded and to know that some are still watching to see whats going on next.

We have made great strides in the potty training...at least he isn't fighting it anymore, he is actually doing very well. We go most days without an accident, as long as mama keep the timer going. Its more of mama being trained than anything right now, but he will continue to pick it up and will move off on his own with it pretty soon I would imagine. Its ok and sure better than diapers all day long. He loves his underwear, they have trains and cars on them, most of you might be aware that anything with WHEELS is a fav toy!! He is very mechanical and loves to see just how thing work. He is figuring out the cars that rev up and go on their own, ya know the ones you wind up by rolling on the floor and then let go and they really go. :-) They are good fun for him and keep him moving!

We have also started the count to three if he doesn't do as we have asked. He has it all figured out and goes to two almost every time, heads for three then looks at us and runs to whatever we have asked of him. Pushing the very limits just like every kid out there. The good thing is he knows where the limit is and doesn't usually cross it. He is figuring out though that in public things are a bit different. :-( We had hoped that would be awhile in getting figured out, but alas he is a very smart little boy!! Yesterday I was counting and when I got to two...he said two with me!! Like I said very smart. We are beginning to hear new words every week anyway.

We had his ears checked by our very special friend and audiologist last week. It appears my struggle with his right ear isn't over. He still has a build up of wax in it, however she did a test on it and said that the ear drum does move freely, so he is hearing ok in that side, it just could be better. Back to the hydrogen peroxide and water drops to get it out. It works to do that in his bath best, don't have to worry where the excess goes. :-)

Will let this do for the text update...one last thing, Grandpa and Dorthea had asked about his shades in that pic...yes they are on upside down...he likes to wear them both ways!! The ear pieces are often on the outside of his ears too, not over the top of them. Doesn't seem to matter to him, just as long as they are on his face!
Take care all, have a good week.
