We're Back!

I know, that's what I said last time. Shortly after my last post, our computer was infected with a virus and we didn't get it fixed. We bought a new computer and I never got around to updating much. I need to catch up with flickr and the blog. Well I doubt I'll catch up, but I'll start again.

We are really looking forward to Spring at our house. I have been sick since December it seems like. I know that Nolan is dying to go to the park and go on the slides.

We have been outside in the snow. Actually, this is Nolan's first year in the snow. He couldn't stand to be in a snowsuit before. This year, we just got him a parka and hiking boots. That seemed to work better for him. He loves to dig and shovel which usually consists of him taking snow off the piles and putting it back on to the sidewalk we just shoveled. I am just so happy that he enjoys the outdoors year round.

Nolan is in two different preschools right now. He has been discharged from PT, OT and recently graduated from ST two years to the day almost from when he started. He was originally diagnosed with five communication disorders, three labeled severe. He currently tests at and above his age level in language. We couldn't be happier for him. This is definitely a victory for Nolan! He tries so hard.

Nolan was casted again this winter. He had great success and he is currently doing a home stretching program three days a week.

We are waiting to return to OT in the next few months to brush up on some skills and learn some everyday living skills. We are starting to work on this at home while we wait.

We're getting all of our summer plans together for projects around the house and what we're going to grow. If we can get it together, we want to get a garden started. Nolan loves gardens, seeds, watering, digging and of course, fruits and vegetables. It will be a good project for all of us.
