So tired today! Richy decided to sleep from 10pm til 2am and stay awake until almost 7:30am. we slept til about noon time. I'm not sure if we're going to make it til the ball drops! I just hope he becomes tired tonight.
Do you have a New Years Resolution? I think mine will be to start attempting to go to bed earlier. lol.
Richy's been telling me to "shut up" often and I'm not liking it one bit. He's always polite with pleases and Thank You's but this has got to stop. I don't want him to go to school telling his teacher or anyone to "shut up" and I have been trying to teach him that.. those words are NOT okay. Does any of your kids have gone through this stage?
Hope everyone has a nice night tonight. I am signing off... One tired MAMA

Great IEP Meeting Yesterday with his Teacher and team
So yesterday, We had our bi-monthly meeting with his teacher and IEP Team and I must say, I am very happy with Richy's progress =) . I already knew he was doing well, especially a difference even at home. He can now spell his name verbally (Richy) and it was so awesome when I heard him spell it.
Me and his father took Richy with us to his meeting, and the teacher showed us how he can also read the word "run" ! and as he read the word "run" he began to run in place. I just sat there and smiled.
Seeing Richy making progress along with behavior, is amazing. His speech and occupational therapist absolutly love having him in class with them. They said he is so full of energy and character and just always so happy lol.
The one thing they are concerned about for him is his grunting/stimmulation because he does it to where its very harsh on his vocal chords, so we're working to gether to try and get him to ease on it and they recommend me taking him to his pediatrician or specialist to make sure no damage is being done as we try to get him to calm down with it.
They say he does it out of sensory which is normal with Autism of course. We are very proud and happy parents =)
