Chocolate chip or ?

Aaron says "Ki - co" for "cookie," which is one oddity I'll be sorry to lose! He still says "Dye-dye" for "Bye-bye" and is very enthusiastic. Today his big update from the last post is that he said, "Me yump on Mommy!" Of course he did. Both Austin and Emily think he won't have more than another 6 months of speech therapy. I'm curious to see the results from the assessments they do in the next couple of weeks - I'm not as optimistic as they are, even though he is making progress.

Emily did say that we need to start to encourage Luke to drop some of his sweet speech habits, like "b-struction" and "I b-iscovered something" and "lellow (yellow)". I giggle each time he says one of those things, but I guess he does need to move on to more mature language. Drat.

Rahj is doing beautifully in math - he started a mainstreamed class today. I've been surprised and impressed by him when I'm working with him at home. He learns the content quickly and seems to have a genuine aptitude for math. I wonder if he's showing his really intelligence level now that he's more secure and less anxious.
