Yesterday, Jamison signed "more" 50% of the time while asking for his favorite fruit snacks!! This is a huge step for him. I have been working with him for a little over a year now on certain signs, so this feels like a huge accomplishment for me as well as him!
Today at school, Jamison immediately ran for the playground to see all of the other kids. He has become a little social butterfly! His favorite activities are playing with his trucks on the playground, and following the other children around with his mower or some other push toy. He still doesn't understand how to really "play" with the other children, he just likes to watch but he's still coming around.
He's still scared of babies. I'm not sure about all babies, but certainly ones that crawl! He's deathly afraid of his little baby cousin Ryan! If Ryan even comes within 5 feet of Jamison he gets up and runs away (literally)! And if he can't run away, he will start to cry and scream until someone helps him to get away!! He doesn't seem to like his other cousin either, he's 5 though. I'm not really sure why on that one, because he likes all of the other children at school, but if Bobby even comes near Jamison he will push him away. Two days ago I had both of the boys at the store and Bobby went to push the cart while Jamison was in the seat of the cart and Jamison used both of his legs to push Bobby out of the way! He wasn't really kicking, otherwise I would have had a problem with that bad behavior, but he was more like pushing himself off of Bobby to get away. I tell you what, he's a pretty good problem solver that's forsure!!
Anyway, he's doing great! Keep reading! Love, Shelly.
