Aaron's lastest tricks!

Aaron is a total trip lately. He is still a handful, alot to handle all day every day, and very hard to please at times...but boy is he funny. He runs everywhere and loves to climb. He tries so hard to keep up with Charlie, and whenever Charlie and Alex are "wrestling" Aaron jumps right in and wrestles too. He tried very hard to jump and he's almost got it down. Charlie was 3 before he even tried to jump, Aaron is millimeters away from leaving the ground with both feet! My nephew Bode was a year old when he learned to jump...my kids are not as physical obviously!
Aaron tested out of physical therapy! We were sad to see Dianne go, she came to our house once a week and got Aaron to do things that it seemed like he'd never do. We really liked her but were thrilled that he didn't need the services anymore. He really has come a long way. He started with her in his 6th month and he was a little blob that couldn't do anything at that point!

He's still in speech therapy and finally making real progress! He says momma and dadda. He used to say something that meant Charlie but hasn't been saying that recently. He says "nack" for snack and tonight, he said "cookee" when playing with a cookie monster toy. He not only said it, but got excited when we repeated the word. He also repeated the word when we asked him to. He understands alot more now. When we say brush teeth, he runs to the bathroom. When we say bath, he goes towards the stairs. When we say milk or snack, he goes to either the refrigerator or the pantry. It's very satisfying to actually "communicate" with the little guy!
