Small Short update

Last night Matt was playing with two stuffed animals and having make believe play which is huge for us.  I said can you help the Frog say his prayers and he said:

Heavenly Father
Thank you for this day
Thank you for helping us be good at school
in the name of Jesus Christ Amen

and then repeated it again for the monkey but wouldn't say them for himself.  Little Poop!!!  He knows.  He has also started picking out Sammie and Mom and Dad and saying our names with pictures.  He is advancing so well.  I am so proud of him.


We also went to his Specialist Dr.  for his Autism and he was impressed with the updates and especially that he was potty trained.  He still has a few accidents and can't tell us when he needs to go but is holding it and doing great.  He said he would categorize him under High Functioning and with Aspergers. 

Although it can be trying at times.  I am so grateful for this little guy and the patience and love he has taught me.

One more

While mom and dad were out here for Sam's birthday we were all in the car and mom went to hand matt something and he said no, matt said no, I said no!!!

Way behind

But some things I need record and will come back later to tell the excitement as to why these are so important:

During the passing of the sacrament Matt begins singing very loudly the song from Winnie the Pooh, "A Baxson"

Grant and I went to pick Matt up from Nursery another time and couldn't find him. He had slipped out of the door and was in the Chapel where the Singles were meeting. He was out wife hunting already:)

In the last 6 weeks Matt has become very vocal saying I'm just fine or I want my blankie, I need my blankie. Like at JcPenny the other night he said this about his blankie and Grant left it in the car anyway. Later we regretted it because he really did need it to regroup and behave.

One night he was fighting sleep and Grant brought him into the recliner to rock and calm him down on his way back to bed he said night night mommy love you.

He was brought to me from nursery to change his diaper and he was whining on the way back and I put him over the gate and he cried want momma and of course I caved and went in with him.
