Actual Date-November 11, 2007
I had been gone all day tending to a show with my candle business, my husband Chad said Connor wouldn't eat his noodles but he did eat his chicken. I'm thinking he meant from lunch time because when I was changing his diaper at 7:30pm he said: "I'm hungry". Well, we went to the kitchen and he ate 4 peanut butter crackers. He is a very picky eater so the fact that he even let me know that he was hungry was real progress.
The child usually only eats the following foods: pizza, chicken nuggets, macaroni & cheese, cheese nips, cookies, french fries-shoe string only, m&m's, skittles, pb crackers, PBJ sandwich, ravioli and McDonalds! Notice, no vegetables are mentioned. I have been able to trick him with a smoothie to get the fruits like strawberries and bananas into his diet but the smoothies didn't work with vegetables. ha He is to smart for me too.

I love you too!
Actual Date- October 15, 2007
What an evening! Tonight Connor came to me while I was sitting at my computer. I turned to acknowledge him and gave him a big hug and kiss. While I was hugging him, he said: "I love You" I said: "I love you too". I couldn't believe it, he understood affection or at least the fact that when someone hugs and kisses then they love you. It brought tears to my eyes but really more excitement because I know he is very smart and will hopefully lead a normal life with this early intervention. Such a Sweet Boy!

Ask Me a Question?
Actual Date-October 6th, 2007
These were the first words that I heard come from Connor's mouth that made me know he was inside there somewhere. He had been in school about 7 weeks with speech therapy for 30 minutes twice a week. He has shown a vast improvement in his vocabulary and what seems to be incidents of understanding. He came home from school and asked? "Ask me a Question?" He said this several times, and I'm assuming his therapist is asking him to say this to her. He seems to love school and I know he is going to do well! I'm so happy I'm able to stay home with my children and watch their progress.
