Just thought I would post a quick update before bedtime. Brady is doing great, but has been a busy boy today! He started the day out with a bang this morning. He took his pants off and peed on my bed. Naturally my washing machine called it quits today, couldn't be because of having to wash our bed clothes every day from the pee........ Brady got up in a good mood and was ready to go to school.He went and got his shoes and gave them to me, to put them on him. He was such a big boy, and climbed into the van and into his seat, all by himself, which is a huge help for my back. He had a great day at school, he was so glad to be there. He went straight to work when he got to his classroom. We found out today, that he is going to get to graduate kindergarten with the rest of the kids, next Wed. Were so excited about this, it is something that we were never sure he would be able to do. Rest assured, there we be tons of pictures and video taken of this event! We came in from school and Brady was ready to run. He managed to ruin another roll of toilet paper, by throwing into the bathtub with him. I think he also flushed some unknown object down the toilet, because it wouldn't flush tonight. Thank goodness we keep the plunger on hand, for Brady incidents. I'm not sure what he flushed this time, but it couldn't be the bathtub stopper, since he has already flushed all three of them. The good news is, we did manage to get the toilet unstopped after some minor plunging. Brady has also resorted back to his stripper days. He has been ripping the tabs off his diapers, taking them off and peeing in the floor. So, since he knows that he has to potty, before he actually goes, I guess this means its time to potty train. Were going to start this summer, and hopefully the school will be able to help us when he starts back next year. Meanwhile, were going to have to buy pullups, with no tabs, and hopefully this will encourage him not to be stripping. Also, do you guys realise that Brady has a birthday coming up on Thursday?!? It just seems like both boys birthdays come around way to often these days!! Last but not least, we found out today that Big Brother Peyton, will most likely be getting glasses in June. Apparently they found that he has an astigmatism, just like his dad. We go back June 12th and will probably pick out his glasses at that time. Hes going to be so handsome in his little glasses, however hes not thrilled,lol Well since this turned out to be a long update, rather than a quick one, guess I better get going. Night guys............
I am a happy healthy 5yr old little boy. I have Angelman Syndrome which makes me even more special. I bring joy to all those who meet me. Just because I am unable to speak, does not mean that I dont have lots to say. I make that very clear to mommy and daddy everyday!
