My little man, my first born, my Bubba, my little miracle monkey Marcus is 4 years old!! I can't believe he is 4!!
He is so much fun. He has a loud personality. He is that kid you don't forget. He's sweet and kind and sensitive. He has a love of trains, cars, books, outdoors, the beach and fishing. Just to name a few.
He is speaking more and more every day. His speech is still slow. Strangers can't understand him and we can understand him about 65% of the time. Its really hard on everyone. He gets so frustrated because we don't understand and we get frustrated at him when he's throwing a fit because he can't communicate. He is getting better. But its something we are working on daily. He gets seen 3 times a week for speech, once a week for feeding and once a week for OT. Hopefully soon he won't need as many therapies.
He is one BIG boy. He weighs over 43lbs and 40in tall and he has one huge head.
He goes to preschool mon-fri 8-12. He loves school so much and it has helped him so much with his speech and with his social skills. IE learning how to share. Lol.
For his birthday we tried to make it very special for him. So sat the 2nd we took him bowling, to monkey joes, sweet frog, fun fun fun and then red robin for dinner. He was so tired he fell asleep at dinner. Haha. Then Sunday the 3rd (his bday) he woke up to a house filled with 150+ balloons and a new family member Spidey the Beta fish. He had such a blast playing in the balloons. Then we took him to his favorite place for breakfast, krispy kremes. He was in heaven. Then we went to Barnes and noble for him to play with the trains and pick out some books. Then we headed to my moms for the day. We had a blast. I'm 99% sure he thought he was all that and a bag of chips. Lol.
I am so proud of the little man he is becoming and so proud to call him mine :)
