Melt My Heart!

Today was a bit busy, K had a meeting with the Speech Therapist this morning, an initial consultation. His communication is a little behind, he has quite a vocabulary, but is not talking in sentences very often. So we got some reassurance that I wasn't making it up along with ideas to help him out. She wasn't too concerned, but enough to want to see him in a few months, as well as gave us a referral for the Hearing specialist to get his hearing checked. As a just in case kind of thing.

After that we went next door to the library, a bit of K and mommy time since T was with his Gramma for this whole morning. So I picked out some books to read while K played with the other kids that were there with their mom. K picked one out that's in French, but he had to have it so I guess his Dad will be reading that one to him! I did pretty darn well in plain high school French, but my French Immersion friends think I mangle the language pretty bad.

When we were done at the library, we went to Gramma's to pick up T and were there just long enough for the dishwasher repair guy to show up. We were in the middle of changing K's bum and he had to run out of the bathroom to see who was at the door and flashed the poor repair guy! He just laughed, asked if he went as a streaker for Halloween and then after K's bum change, got K to help him with some of his tools.

Shortly after that, we went home, put T to bed, had some lunch and watched Toy Story 3. We read a few stories from the library in anticipation of naptime. Naptime didn't happen. Grump time happened. K just played in his room and came out a few times. Then he needed a bath and T woke up. So I fed them some snacks and packed them into the car and we went and grabbed a few groceries. It was very quick - went in, got our stuff, got out. K helped with the self check-out scanner, he thought that was pretty neat.

Then we had dinner, put T to bed, watched some more Toy Story, cleaned up and had stories.

So as I'm leaving, my little guy who barely says 3 words in a sentence, AND has never talked about anything that has happened in the recent past, goes:
"Mom?"
"Yes K?"
"Fanks for Liblary"!
"Aw, you liked the library today!?"
"Fanks for Shopping"!
"You're welcome, bub"
"Fanks for Groceries"!
"Well, you're welcome. Now go to sleep."

  1. Aw, that's really sweet! It melted my heart, too. Also, I call both my boys "bub" sometimes :).
