Proud Mama

Of course I had to anxiously share this--so yesterday Landon showed 2 areas of improvement process and I was fortunate to capture them.

The first photo shows Landon self-feeding; eating cereal with milk from a suction bowl while in his high-chair. This is the first time I considered having him do this unassisted. Lately, I've been sitting him in the chair and just feeding him myself. I figure cleaning up milk and cereal would be too much of a hassle.

The next photo shows him washing his hands. This guy wants to wash his hands every time he sees me or someone else go into the bathroom--which is actually a great thing to keep germs away. Not to mention he knows he has to wash his hands each morning at drop off and throughout the day at school. Anyone that knows Landon, knows that he loves water, so washing his hands is excites him.

Someone shared with me that "One of the greatest perks of being a mother of a special child is: Every milestone your baby achieves is Celebrated and NOT Expected"!!
