Bennett goes to school 4 days a week (half days). He gets occupational therapy twice a week and speech therapy twice a week. He is one busy boy. He really likes his school and he even has a "girlfriend" there. Her name is Reese, or REEE-SEE as Bennett calls her. He follows her everywhere. Sometimes his teacher has to seperate them two, othertimes she finds it easier to leave them together. It is hilarious. He loves his speech therapist, Kristie. Now we bring him in some Chickfila lemoade to motivate him in speech. We are still working on his attention span and trying to increase his ability to sit and complete tasks. His comprehension has improved tons over the past year, along with his speech. He also needs to work on his "play skills" and imagination. We are working on potty training, but it looks like we have a uphill battle with it.
He is saying and repeating lots of words now a days. We are working more on putting sentences together and combing words and using multiple syllable words. He can say "I want ...." fill in the blank with whatever he is wanting. Another sentence we here alot is "Swing higher please." We also here a lot of "Choc-late milk please!"
He loves eating fruit and chicken and fries the most. Also loves to try to sneak everyones cokes away from them. He still loves his milk !
He loves to be outside, swing, go on wagon rides, go to grandmas houses, seeing his family, playing with Brayden, playing with Reese at school, going to Chickfila, playing with his buddy Caleb, watching movies, and playing his ipad. He loves to watch Disney Jr. and Dinsey and Pixar movies. (Cars, Wreck It Ralph, Tangled, Bolt, Brave, Toy Story, Shrek are all favorites around here along with Doc Mc Stuffins and Sofia and some others on Disney Jr.)
Bennett has grown from about 15lbs when he brought him home to almost 40lbs! He is officially a big kid and out of toddlerhood. I am one proud momma. Bennett is a hard worker and is determined.
