3 and LOVING it! Well at least he is...

Spring Break with Nessa, after covering the
 house with toys it was time to relax.
Ayden has been doing really well so I figured I would post more good news. He continues to work hard in school and therapy. With spring some headaches have returned, but he also gets to be outside more so that really helps. He has definitely been bucking the system a bit lately with 3 yr. old fits at school and at home. They are a blessing in disguise though as they prove how bull-headed, stubborn, and independent he is. All three qualities will continue to push him toward his goals. He is almost 40inches tall /48 lbs. so we would love to see him walking this summer and plan to spend a lot of time trying. We took our first official trike ride of the season. He actually fits this year without extra padding on the peddles. He was not a fan as I strapped him on, but once we headed out towards the road he really got excited. I think I wore out his little legs the first time, but he didn't want to get off when we stopped so that was great! His speech is most amazing as he is saying please and thank you without prompting and putting together small phrases with help. He will even surprise us once in a while with 3 words together on his own. Last night, the words of the night were "read and rock" so of course I had to listen.  We are incredibly blessed with so many wonderful people working with Ayden and we want to thank everyone who is following along.
