Yesterday Greyson got to visit with another child who is basically the same age he is (chronologically, he decided to wait until right around his due date rather than suprize the world by coming early). Greyson had just woke up from a nap and wasn’t sure how he felt about having another kid around, but he warmed up after awhile and Stacy tells me they were just looking at each other.
I think Greyson is really working on talking these days. He will lay on his back and yell out things and loves it when you repeat his sounds back to him (which according to the speech therapist is a great way to help them understand the sounds they are making and help them learn to talk). I don’t think I’ve mentioned (although I said we were working towards it) that Greyson is now off the ventilator the entire time he is awake (and a little bit when he naps). We are supposed to put it back on him if he naps more than a half hour but sometimes he is sleeping so good and breathing so well that we just leave it off. This is because he is doing so well and because it can wake him up when we put him back on the ventilator. During these times we watch him extra close to make sure he is not struggling. OK I got to get to work. Have a great day!
A play date! Perfect! He is absolutely adorable! I love how he is always sucking on his hands! I can’t wait until October to come and play and talk with him! Tell him we will be there soon so keep practicing because I have been known to talk alot! 🙂
How fun it was to come home from work and check the blog and have such a cute surprise waiting. The two little boys are adorable! Thanks Bob for the post. Greyson you just keep on practicing that talking. I need to talk to you on the phone soon! Hope you have a wonderful weekend. Love you all!
What a nice little friend Greyson, you are so special and lucky to have so many friends. Take care and I can’t wait to see your next blog because I know it will be something very special.
Love Grandma Terry
Wow Greyson you are just amazing. You are growing up really fast. Almost 1 year old! It sure was wonderful to finally get to meet you at your dedication. You are quite the little man. It’s nice to hear that you are doing so well off the vent. Hopefully you will be off of it for good really soon.
Keep up the good work. God Bless all three of you!
