DAY 16 12/7

Ty's good vocals have continued today. Getting lots of "mama's" on approach and he is using a lot of his words for requests. His babble is also great, we have heard many new blended sounds - pee-ya, la la, shhh, ch, mmm, dada, just lots of stuff we don't usually hear.

1 BM accident this morning (small and formed, this one though had that metalic smell, wish I had the money to send in for a fecal metals test, but not today!) and several spontaneous urines in the potty. Butt pimples were mostly faded this morning?

Came and got my husband when his TV messed up.. said "yaddy, up" to get him to follow him. His self initiatian is improved the past 2 days, and I dare say, we had one incidence of appropriate pointing while looking in the refrigerator.

Took Ty to the park to wrap up the day - we practiced pointing to airplanes in the sky (we live 12 miles from the airport, so lots of opportunities!). By the 10th one, he was saying "ah-pane" (which we used to hear about a year ago) and I got 2 spontaneous points! He also went to the pantry when we got home and got on a chair and pointed to the Keebler Club Crackers! I felt so bad that I couldn't give them to him (gluten), but he seemed okay with his crackers - the pointing was great though, we have only had a handful of points in probably 4 yrs!
1 small BM before bed, vomit smell and wet - and sure enough, the butt pimples were back!
As for the first day with the new batch of tea, I want to add that he was noticably calmer and stimming was about 20% reduced today (for a Sunday that is good!).
