Trying out his new seat. He wasn't a fan. Thankfully it was a garage sale purchase!
Somebody likes the fresh coat of snow!
Another week, and he's still growing way too fast!
This was a big day....
Had their conferences tonight! Amelia was first. We got updated on her IEP progress, and she's doing really well. They're moving her onto "r" now, which they usually wait until 2nd grade but her speech pathologist things she's ready. Then, we talked about the new reading program she's starting, and met with that teacher as well. This will be daily, one on one time to work on her reading and I'm SOOOOOO excited that she gets to take advantage. They only take about 10 kids per grade, which sucks because obviously that means she's really behind, but she's gets the help she needs, which give some comfort. They've also recommended her for the summer school program she was in last year again. It was overwhelming, but at least I know she's getting the help she needs. On the super positive note, she scored in the 83% for the 1st grade standardized test, which tests problem-solving/puzzle skills, so I'm super proud of that. And she won a coloring contest at school, which she's super proud of. Olivia's went pretty quick and smooth, as it usually does. She is coming out of her shell more, and doing better in group settings, which is big. Her reading is still above grade level, but she needs to work on fluency and retention still. And, lots of work in math needed. She's the only kid in class who has turned in all of her weekly homework this year though. Who knew it was optional?! Parents these days.
Next up, this one! She woke up dry this morning, AND from her nap. She used the potty multiple times, and NOOOOO accidents. I'm so excited, and beyond proud. I really think it's going to stick, and we're THISCLOSE to kidding two in diapers goodbye!
Finally, this guy. First of all, I think he's finally re-adjusting to daycare, and settling back into it. He took a great nap today and was happy and playful. Such a relief. Then, he did AMAZING at conferences tonight, barely heard a peep out of him.
My Life summed up: "Eliza, stop putting lip gloss on". "I'm not".
Being an infant is exhausting!
Until Next Week! XOXO
