Over the last month, his patience level has really increased, with that said, he has zero patience or tolerance for Buddy. In his new found patience I refer to helping out in the grocery, standing still in public, and just his overall demeanor. A couple of our friends have even noticed that he's not as 'wild' as he used to be. I guess it all comes with age.
He's feeling much better and hasn't had a fever or a cough or sneezed for several days and I'm hoping we are done with allergies for the winter. We still plan to see the allergist in December.
We will also be visiting the speech clinic and getting him enrolled in speech & language therapy starting in January. He has a broad vocabulary and preschool has really helped with his pronouncations but he is still behind his age group for sure. He's getting frustrated that his teachers and friends can't understand him and its just time.
He refers to himself in third person and can not grasp the use of "I", while this is cute, he really needs to get it. He does not say "s" at all. He'll simply skip it in the pronouncation of a word that has one or that sound. Many of the compound words he uses, he'll only say one sound, but say it twice. He says porport for airport, corcorn for popcorn, homehome for motorhome, etc. All the while I pretty much get what he's saying, his teachers can not.
He has a very unique personally and he is very loved by us and his friends. He's too precious.
Today we sat down for a quick game of candyland and I think its the first time that I didn't have to help him at all or explain anything. We just sat down and played. He won of course!
Also, while discussing baby names with Grandpa and Nana, Grandpa explained to LG that they share the same middle name. Now so does the Man, but it fascinated LG that he and Grandpa have the same name. So now he is calling him that instead of Grandpa. Too Funny!
