March 2010 Update!

Two years and eight months old!

My little man has been showing me just how smart he is recently. He knows all of his alphabet except for M and N. He tries so hard to say those two and just can't do it. He can sing the entire alphabet and pick out all the letters, just that darn M and N. I guess this would explain why I have never really heard "mom, momma, mommy....." That M sound is just really tricky for him. He can also count to five. He loves to say "three" or actually "tree." A big grin stretches across his face when he says that one.

Rowan is also starting to read. We have never even watched Dora the Explorer or any of those shows. While at my sisters house though Rowan picked up a watch of Sloane's. It said Dora on it. He kept looking at it and saying "Dor, Dor, Dor" He was trying so hard to read it and he can barely talk. I was pretty impressed.

His arsenal of words is getting bigger. Juice, Duck, Shoe, Yes, No, Car.... It is so wonderful for him to finally communicate with me. I have never worried about his intelligence for one second it is just that having communication and more interaction makes life so much easier.

Rowan has had about a million evaluations for Autism and each one just leads to another evaluation. I am fine with that because they have at least put him on the list for therapy. I hope that these therapists will be able to help get him eating and talking and all that wonderful stuff.

Rowan also was accepted into preschool. I swear its like college. You have to apply a year in advance and there were only six slots. Its not even a special school for kids with Autism. Rowan will be attending regular preschool and I have faith he will blow them away with how smart he is and how well behaved (fingers crossed on the last one.)
