In a little over a week Mister will have his big hearing test and for once I think he will surely pass! He has been doing so well lately since his tubes were in place. He is forming new words daily and his comprehension is going up and up! He isn't the best at the new sounds he is forming but he is trying his hardest to do them, most of the time.
Today he started saying bye-bye and waving at the same time, he did this perfectly to the lady who always delivers our pizza no joke whenever we get from Papa Johns the same lady always comes, I think she loves us cause she knows our names now.. weird? kinda He said up to a friend's husband this morning at playgroup when he wanted him to pick Mister up and hold him. He has been signing way more lately and I think it is because he can hear us and he understands that signing is effective in communicating to us! He wanted me to blow some more bubbles yesterday for him and he said the word bubble along with signing please so essencially he just had a two word sentence! I am so excited for him!!!
He is still resorting to screaming at the top of his lungs when trying to communicate to people his size, and all the kids at playgroup will tell you about this. He also resorts to pinching and biting when he isn't being understood the way he wants, or throwing his tantrum which involves gently throwing himself on the ground and doing this wimpering cry that is so sad and sorry you nearly laugh. I know these things will over time improve as his speech and comminucation improves, I know not to rush it either. Mister has always been the type to do something in in own time frame not anybody else's frame for anything. He can hear now, everything else is coming along. With the help of his speech therpist and OT lady who comes to see him he is moving along perfectly!
Now if I can get him to call me Mommy instead of Daddy I will be extremely happy! I think he does this on purpose cause he laughs everytime I try to get him to say momma or mommy and then looks right at me and says daddy then laughs more. He does say momma when he really and truly needs me, so I know he can...it's our game! He is a goof ball!
