Happy Birthday Alex!

 

Wow! He’s two today. We have a few close relatives coming over. There’s going to food and cake and presents. I’m quite excited, but wow, he’s two today.

Let’s do an update then. By the end of this month, Alex SHOULD be able to:

*take off an article of clothing – yup, he likes taking off his pants and then his diaper.
*“feed” a doll – yup, he loves his cow, and he feeds it his food all the time.
*build a tower of four cubes – yup.
*identify two items in a picture by pointing - we can ask him to point and he will and he can point and say the words on his own as well for quite a few different pictures.

…will PROBABLY be able to:

*build a tower of 6 cubes - yup.
*throw a ball overhand - yup and other things, but the other things get him in trouble.
*speak and be understood half the time – pretty much everything he says now, Rob and I understand, other people, probably not so much.
*identify 4 items in a picture by pointing - see above.

…may POSSIBLY be able to:

*jump up – sorta. His feet don’t really leave the ground but he bounces up and down as if trying.
*put on an article of clothing – not on his own. He can’t put the shirt over his head, but he can get his arms in on his own once that’s done. Same with pants, once their over his feet he can pull them up.

…may even be able to:

*draw a vertical line in imitation – yup.
*build a tower of 8 cubes – yup.
*carry on a conversation of 2 or 3 sentences – yeah, not so much.
