"In" and "On" and A Plea to Aunt Aimee

Yesterday was pretty cool. Its something simple but so very cool. During speech therapy we are just starting to work on the concept of 'IN' and 'ON'. Like the dog is IN the box, the dog is sitting ON the box. Well Daniel was nailing it. We'd ask where the toy was. And he'd look at the picture of the words and he was getting them right!! And as if that wasn't enough, he SAID both words. Actually spoke each word. Pretty straight forward, no mistaking it. IN and ON. Used the word when asked where the toy was, no delay, no big long pause. It was an instant definite answer. And he KNEW he was right! We have witnesses too!! So very very cool. Loved it. Lets just hope its not months before we hear his voice again. :)

Here is a photo for Daniel's Aunt Aimee-

We borrowed one of Victoria's hair bows. Get the hint?!

Here is Daniel when I asked if he liked his hair long and in his eyes. And he did this....He wants Aunt Aimee to come home and cut his hair or we're going to have to change his name to Danielle

Yes, Daniel may need a haircut, but can you please quit putting ribbons and bows in the poor kid's hair!? Sheesh! Everytime, I turn around he's got bows, curlers or fingernail polish on.

Bwahaha! Busted! When my husband was away, I let Max paint his nails. Dad saw it and decreed no boy in this house would have colored nails. (now he gets clear only!) THEN I let Max into the yard with fairy wings on. My husband's friend stopped by. Busted again!

It's so exciting to see our kids making progress! Go Daniel!!!

Get him a haircut for gosh sake or bring him to Texas and I'll cut it! You have 4 girls, stop putting bows and whatever in his hair. No wonder he has that look on his face. Would you want to be made to look like a boy!?! I think not!

Way to go Daniel! Evan says ought oh pretty clear. He says na, ya and most other words are just mainly vowels. But hey the kid tries really hard. Love the bow pics. My hubby cuts the boys hair. Hopefully, Aunt Aimee gets home soon.
