Spencer speech therapy

January 6, 2015

As I’ve mentioned before, Spencer was slow to talk so we started getting him some therapy before he turned 2. We originally went through the state and then decided to also go with some private therapy. He had his initial evaluation with Children’s back in May and started weekly 1 hour speech therapy sessions in July. Our therapist, Ms. Jennifer, was so great and patient with him and, while the steps were baby steps, we did see little improvements each week.

The end of December was his 6 month mark and it was agreed by all that we take a break.  Spencer has progressed a TON and is almost right on track with his age group.  Jennifer re-tested him around mid-December when he was 2 years, 2 months old and his expressive language (talking) was at a 2 year, 1 month level! Great! Even better? His receptive language (comprehension) was at a 2 year, 8 month level! Woohoo!  That put him overall at a level of 2 years, 5 months for language.

I will also say that, even since Christmas, I promise this kid is talking 50% more. He’s stringing together 3 words, having actual little conversations and really letting his personality come through.  This kid is chattering away all the time and I LOVE it! My favorite thing he says? Yeeese for yes. I can’t even type the cute way he says it but it just kills me. I’m just thrilled to be able to ask him a question and get either a little “yeeese” or “nah” in response instead of just a shake of the head!

I sure do love this little pumpkin…

Yes, that was from his birthday but it’s too cute not to share. Here’s a cute one from last week…

I could just eat him up! Here’s to my chattering, babbling, talking 2 year old!
