Devyn is turning 3 soon and that means his aba therapy will end! I'm sure I'll cry or something! haha. He loves them and the saddest part is that he wont even understand that it will be the last time he will see them. He will just say Bye, See you..just like any other session ending. So sad..

But, he will be starting preschool soon! I'm pretty nervous because he has been extremely aggressive lately. Pushing and kicking autumn alllll the time, a lot more meltdowns, sleep issues, feeding issues as usual. We went to a little valentines day party my friend hosted. About 7 or so kids were there and Devyn was just in his own little world. He ignored all the kids the majority of the time. He has an obsession with bins and he will push them around the house and put anything he can find in them and dump everything out and put everything back in. He will do that over and over again and when the kids tried to play with him he would try to push them down. He even got into a fight with another kid. We had to leave early because he kept having meltdowns. Not a good night. :(

I don't know what I'm going to do with myself while Devyn is at school. I'm not sure what the hours will be yet because we haven't gone to his IEP meeting yet..but I'm going to be so bored and lonely!!! haha. I'm going to miss my little crazy man..

Devyn has another play group on saturday! I hope it doesnt rain!!!

update!

last update i made was about pretend city..it was fun!
it was actually really cool. turns out they are going to start having this event every month. so, im hoping we can take d every month. i think he had a lot of fun. but, i dont think he understood a lot of it. he doesnt do a whole lot of pretend play. he does with a few things. but he didnt understand a lot of it. i was trying to interact with him and i was trying to get him to get involved but he was really concentrating on the cars. he just wanted to ride around in the cars. after about an hour doing that i actually got him to go play in the sand at the pretend beach. he also played in the little pre-school. the ladies loved him in there! he was so obsessed with this car that the kids made. they made it with tin foil, boxes, buttons, glitter, etc. but so weird...once we got home..he took it to his room and was playing with it. then the next minute it is completely destroyed! he literally destroyed it to bits! ill have to upload pictures soon.
i want to get him more pretend play toys for his birthday coming up.
like a pretend kitchen, play food, shopping cart, etc. still not sure what to get autumn. she has a lot of toys.
i decided to have a little party for them. i just want to keep it simple and small. but im creative so there has to be a theme..and im making cupcakes! haha. im not sure who to invite though..i want it to be small. but i feel like if i dont invite people they might get offended...i dont know. its hard because i want to celebrate but i dont want devyn to get upset.
anywho, devyn finally finished all his assessments. next, we have our IEP meeting on the 28th to discuss the results of the assessments then they will tell us what class they think fits him best. i hope he gets into the one i want him too. we will see! it will be a big adjustment for him...but i hope he does okay!
