Is it really possible? My baby is three years old! It still feels like we brought him home from the hospital. Isaac had a great birthday. We celebrated on the 17th at our house. We had Papa Murphy pizza, chips and of course cake and ice cream. Isaac requested a tractor cake just like Caleb had. My Mom made the tractor cake and Ross' mom made the chocolate cake that Grandma Winter used to make. We had a lot of fun. Grandma and Grandpa B, Grandma and Grandpa K, Uncle Nolan, Aunt Gina, cousin Caden, Great Grandpa W, cousin Kim and Emily were all able to make it.
We had gotten Isaac a jumpolene for his birthday which he loved and played in it at his party. But we found a hole in it that night so it went back to the store and we replaced it for a big tractor and wagon.
Isaac moved to the 3 year room at daycare and the transition went pretty well. We had a few rough days at home which happens with any type of transition as it's all related to his sensory processing disorder. Caleb had a hard time too and was quite upset the first day of daycare without his brother in his room. They're both adjusted now so that is really helping. The boys really need their time apart as they're together all the time so it's nice when they are in separate rooms.
Isaac is a busy boy and hyper as ever. He loves farming and riding in the truck. He has spent quite a bit of time with Daddy this harvest which is really nice for him and for Mommy. He's talking quite a bit and telling lots of stories. He's counting up to 10 and is singing songs. He knows most of his colors and is doing awesome at matching. He has his last developmental screening with Early Intervention and he passed all screenings with flying colors! He's considered "too advanced" to receive anymore services. We are beyond thrilled about that but that also means we need to look into private occupational therapy for his sensory issues which we haven't done yet.
We're still working on potty training. Isaac isn't real interested right now and I'm not pushing because everything we want Isaac to do becomes a power struggle. He may be 4 before he's trained but I know I want him to do it when HE is ready.
Sleeping is still a major struggle and we're not really sure why. We may do a sleep study this winter but haven't really made a decision yet. We've been giving him melatonin to fall asleep which works for a few hours but then he needs to sleep with us in our bed which becomes quite crowded. It's a process and he's still young.
Isaac will have his check up on Friday so I'll get his official results then but I am sure he's about 32 lbs by now and 36 inches or so. He's still a small fry and is still in 24 month and 2T clothing. So much for him passing his clothes onto his brother as Caleb is into 2T already.
On Isaac's actual birthday Mommy and Grandma took the boys to Sioux Falls. We picked up Isaac's pictures and went to eat at McDonalds. It was a good time and I think Isaac enjoyed his birthday!
We love you Isaac Avery~ you are the most precious, amazing, smart little 3 year old we know!
