January finds us back to school for The Big Guy and Taz, and with a little more free time for mom to enjoy with Snow White.
The Big Guy is still going strong 4 days a week at developmental preschool! Three days a week he participates in an ABA-based extended day program for autism on top of his regular preschool class, so he eats lunch at school and is gone ALL DAY. I miss him like crazy and pace by the front door at 3:30 eagerly awaiting the arrival of his bus. He’s made so many gains there, though, and we are so grateful for the wonderful staff that has him all day. He also started back up with swimming which he loves, although he struggles listening to directions from his instructor. Also- he and Taz have been playing AWESOME with each other lately!! I hope this will translate to children other than siblings soon.
Taz also spends 4 days a week delighting the teaching staff at school. He is in the classroom next door to his big brother, and gets to see him during recess. Being the social guy he is, he has no shortage of friends and comes home talking about them and eager to share his school projects with us! Taz recently started basketball at the YMCA in town and loves it! He’s back swimming (in the same class as The Big Guy) and really enjoys playing catch with the new glove that Santa brought him. I really want to sign him up for T Ball this spring. I think he’d have a blast!
Snow White has been wearing the same Snow White dress that Santa brought EVERY DAY thus far in January (yeah, I’m washing it every single night) . I got her a Princess Tiana dress for her birthday at the end of the month, and I hope it’s as big a hit as the Snow White dress was. She’s a chatty thing and demands things using full sentences at an age where I only remember getting pointing and grunting from her brothers. Recently, she’s been spotted sporting a pink tiara around town, so watch out. She’s a real head turner.
