Watch out for Sharks!

This week has been fairly successful! Nate is gaining skills so rapidly- it is just amazing to watch. I am certain that we started all of this at the EXACT right time. If we had started any sooner I have this feeling that we would have ended up at this exact same spot- just COMPLETELY out of money! Nate is open to learning, which an almost 3 year old should be!!

We have mastered skills such as rolling a ball back and forth, throwing a ball overhead, pedaling a tricycle, wooden puzzles, taking off shoes, starting artwork, and the list goes on and on... Nate has also picked up the sign for "swing". I was really proud of him on this one since it is such an akward moving of the wrist- but he got it!

He has been swimming and loving it. We blew up a baby pool with slides for him in the yard and wouldn't ya know it- he broke out from the damn cheap plastic the pool is made of??! lordy. Well I will put a shirt on him next time- he had such a blast. We actually had one of his aides standing in the pool with him and doing his programs from in there. It was great!!! I added some pics of Nate from swimming at our neighborhood pool. I was so shocked that he wore his shark lifevest- but he did! yay!

Nate went to his friend's birthday party today. He did awesome! He got hit in the face a few times by the same little girl, but he didn't push her in return (which is a nasty behavior I had feared he might be picking up). He actually behaved perfectly at the party and was even giving arm kisses to one of his friend's mommy. It was cute.
