As I anticipate sharing this blog with Edison's little brother, it occurs to me that I haven't posted on Edison's progress in a while. He is doing amazingly well. He has started to just talk up a storm and it has really shown his personality. He is extremely inquisitive and it is no surprise that his favorite character is Curious George. Somehow, as we have not drilled this into him, he is the most polite child. He throws out "please, thank you, excuse me, have a good day, how you doing today, etc." as naturally as can be. He is quite the little charmer.

We really lucked out in that he is in a great preschool program here comparable to his one in New Jersey. He continues to receive occupational, physical and speech therapies while at school and loves going every day to see his friends. His vocabulary is almost age appropriate we are just still working on his language becoming more spontaneous. He has learned to jump which he loves and has become more solid on his feet. He is still taking after his mom in that he is quite the shortie, but maybe that will change. We have found a feeding therapist that we really like here and his progress, while slow, is steady. He likes to ask for "Old McDonald's" french fries. Every day he amazes us with his progress.

As for his little brother, Edison is excited but is a little bored with it all at this point. He wants him just to come out already. The pregnancy is going well and I am hitting my 8th month which is a great milestone. We are excited to meet the little fellow who will join our family on April 27th (and NOT before!)
