spring fever!!

we haven't been up to a whole lot lately but I realized I haven't blogged in a month so I better give it an update. ben and i got away for a weekend to go with ted and ashely to the masters. missed miles like crazy but it was nice to go on a little road trip. he had a great time with his grandmas. we came home to a new book, a new thomas (that talks and lights up), a few new diggers, and one happy boy with a big smile on his face.

we are doing speech therapy through first steps which is getting better. he wasn't a huge fan of his therapist the first several weeks but he finally started warming up to her. she is much more structured than we are but I am seeing that it may be good for him. he's upped his vocabulary to no, whoa, go, yes, and a hard to understand "airplane". he's making progress though. you might think that if he doesn't talk much it is hard to communicate with him. It's crazy but I think he is super easy to communicate with. You can reason with him, he follows pretty good directions, and points to what he wants. Who needs talking?!?! Just kidding. We are hoping and praying we can have some fun and articulated toddler conversations with him soon. I know he has a lot to say, right now its just in his own dialect.  :) Sweet boy.

this weekend ben is away for a golf trip with a few college friends. i'm heading to pick miles up in a bit and we are going to go get some cupcakes for a shower I'm having tomorrow. so, grammy will be back up to keep the little wild guy. i am hoping this weekend for miles and i will be full of playing outside, trips to the park, ice cream, and lots of laughs and smiles.
