Yeah!!!

We just found out today Gregory was accepted to Arcadia Neighborhood Learning Center Elementary School in the Scottsdale school district for Kindergarten!!!!!

This is an answer to prayer as we felt this school would be the best fit for Gregory! They have a more hands approach to learning (in a nut shell). 

As you know . . . I have to know the plan . . . and to know where Gregory is going the beginning of the summer is just so awesome! So glad I don't have to wait! 

2 Year Anniversary!!!

June 1st was this blog's 2 year anniversary!!!!

Thanks for all the support!!! I'm so glad I started this blog. I love being able to help other families and thank you to all the families that have helped me! 

Hugs,

Melissa

Summer Time!

Gregory is officially done with preschool! You did it bug! Here comes kindergarten!!!!

We have a fun summer planned with learning to swim, Occupational Therapy, Speech Therapy, Physcial Therapy, bike ridding, Big Surf, The Arizona Science center, Summer Movie fun, books, family, The Zoo, bowling, church, learning, improving self help skils . . . 

Whew, I'm tired already! I really want to soak up this summer with Gregory before he starts school full time. Tear. :(  

You're making leaps and bounds bug! I'm so proud of you! 

I love this boy. This boy loves to dance.

Therapy.

Gregory is back in OT again! We love our therapist! We're going to Fiesta Pediatric Therapy! They are great. He goes every week! 

He'll hopefully go for Speech and Physical Therapy as well! Keep you posted!

This mama needs to brag for a moment . . . Gregory is doing so well in some areas that we have waited a long time for . . . and this mama is so proud! 

1. (TMI) He is finally going #2 on the potty all the time!!!!!!! For those of you who know us well, we have been we have been waiting on this a long time!!!! No more poopy pants!!!!!!! 

2. He can get dressed all by himself!!!! Thanks to his daddy and his step mom working with him he can now do it!!!! Wahoo!!!! Saves mama time in the morning. :) 

3.  He is getting much more comfortable in the pool! To those of you who know us well, this has been a huge struggle summer after hot hellish summer of him not wanting to go in the pool. He has taken swim lessons every summer since he was born. Well, I'm committed to taking him in the pool every day on the days I have him and its paying off. By the end of the summer he will be swimming! He has to! Its Arizona! And it doesn't cost anything!! Well, most of the time.
