Kevin said a word today that I didn't even know he knew! I gave him a sippy cup and there was a picure of a boat on it. He turned it around and pointed at it and said 'bt'. This is just the beginning of him starting to say things that he is learning immplicitly (not being taught by me). Let the fun times begin....!!! :)
I realized after I reread my last post that I forgot to mention other words he has 'mastered' (meaning he says with the same clarity as my 3.5 year old):
Ow
Owl
ball
Bye
Daddy
Doggy
juice
no
Pretty fun! Not bad considering his IFSP listed a goal as being able to say 3 words by November. Note, he has many other words, just not with complete clarity.
Kevin John was born on April 6, 2006 and we quickly found out he was profoundly deaf due to the Connexin 26 gene. This is our story how we are going about raising him in the hearing world.
