Summer part 1

The first part of summer has just flown by! Its been fun. 

Fourth of July fun! 

Going to see, "Finding Dory". 

Lots of reading. 

Lots of running errands with mom. 

Lots of snuggles with Riley. 

Dave and Busters with Mamo. 

Washing cars.

Lots of swimming. So much fun with Quinn at Papo & Mimi's. 

Going out to eat at a fun cowboy place for Papo's birthday. 

Bubble Bash. 

See what the rest of summer holds . . . only 1 more month! 

Riley

We have a new addition to our family. Meet "Riley". He is Gregory's very own kitten. :) And they love each other. 

Karate

Gregory started karate over the summer. He became a yellow belt! So exciting! 

Second grade

Gregory is officially a 2nd grader! He is still in the ABC classroom and has his IEP. Hopeing by 3rd or 4th grade he can be in a main stream classroom. In the mean time, look how cute he is. 

Kindergarten Update

All in all the school year has been going good . . . until last week that is. It was just an overall rough week. 

I need to think of a name for when Gregory acts "crazy". I often refer to it as "crazy" Gregory but thats not nice. I dunno . . . its his alter ego  . . . maybe instead of Gregory he is being, "Senor Loco"???? I'm game for any suggestions. 

Anways, what does "Senor Loco" look like? I can't even describe it . . . its just off, weird, intense, agressive, sensitive, snotty, disrespectful, not obedient, hard, difficult, cranky. 

Sounds fun, huh? 

Whats going on? 

I"m not really sure .  . . . mommy brain of mine cannot figure it out. I think its one or many of the following . . . daddy being out of town, school being hard, not having OT, friends not being nice at school, the heat, his lack of vocabulary . . . 

I don't know. 

I do know at school (so at home too) they are working on the following goals for Gregory:

~Write his name

~Hold a pencil the right way

~Respond appropriately to situations

~Two way conversations

~Articulation

~Colors

~Count to 20 (he can now do 25)

~Shapes

~Identify 15 of the 26 letters

~Self awareness

~Math language
