How does a kid like Greyson tell you he’s hungry?

Simple, he hooks up his tube and walks around with it!
Actually Greyson was just helping Stacy give him a feed tonight. We actually gave him some milk in the tube and he was doing it all himself……for a short time. I’ll let you figure out what happened. Greyson, open container, on his own……some cleanup was involved.
OK so Greyson doesn’t ever tell you he’s hungry. He will tell you he wants something when you are eating it, or if it is routine. Everday when we get home from his babysitter I feed him through his g-tube and we “eat” an apple together. I do most of the eating but he likes to bite little pieces off. The other day we had a change of routine and Stacy picked Greyson up. When they got home I was already here and had started eating an apple. Greyson immediately stormed towards me yelling “APPLE!!, AAAAPPPPLE!! AApple!! Apple! Apple! Apple!” while reaching up at me with both arms. It was quite the spectacle.
Greyson’s walking continues to improve and we have almost completely retired his walker. We are keeping it for awhile for extra long distances but may not even need that now. We will see how it goes for a little longer before donating it to someone else who needs it. Or to Holly Ridge (the therapy place that worked with Greyson till he turned 3 and loaned us a walker for so long).
Greyson’s grandparents came up for the weekend and he sure enjoyed playing and showing off for them. There were only a couple times where we had to consider putting them all (the grandparents and Greyson) in time out.
