It's been a LONG time since I last updated you on how Trey has been doing. My last post on him was here. Since then his vocabulary has EXPLODED! This is a huge thing for us as now our communication back and forth is not so frustrating, resulting in less temper tantrums from both of us. ;) It is a wonderful thing to hear his sweet little voice and to know his wants and what he's thinking; something we've waited for so long to hear.
Last year he went to Ken-o-sha for 5 half days and learned so many new things. He now knows all his colors, and most letters. Absolutely unbelievable for a pretty non-verbal kid at the beginning of the year. His sensory limitations have come a long way too. Trey is a SUPER sensory sensitive kid when it comes to touch. He doesn't mind being touched, it's when he is challenged to touch something is when it becomes a problem. When he's in a baby swing at the park, he doesn't hold onto the handles for fear of how they feel. He won't hold a toothbrush, or an unfamiliar item. This has become a huge challenge for Joe and I as we can't cater to his every need by feeding him or brushing his teeth for him forever (especially with child #4 coming soon).
Last night we had a huge breakthrough and we are SOOO excited about his progress!! Look here, not only is he holding the spoon, he's feeding himself too! We've waited for this for 4 years!!!
