AWESOME AMAZING NEWS.....

So its been a while since I last updated you all on Carson so I thought today would be a great day to do so!

Today, we received some AWESOME AMAZING NEWS!!!  Carson got approved for his SSI disability claim!!!!  This is going to help Carson in so many different ways!!!  We will finally be able to get him some of the high-end learning toys to help him w/his education & his speech!  And once he starts his services through the school systems, We'll be able to afford to pay for his speech therapist to come out a couple of times a week for private speech therapy!!!  I can't wait to get started on everyone new that is coming our way for Carson!!!  Getting this money each month will open so many doors for Carson!!!  I cried so hard once I got off the phone today w/the lady for the SSI Office!

In Other news, Carson has been doing great w/his therapist!  He, like always, has his good days & bad days!!  For the last couple of weeks, he has been "fighting" us on using his words.  He has been acting out alot & not wanting to use his words at all.  When he does use his words, he won't stop talking!!  LOL!!!  Which I love completely!!!  Erica is not liking it too much b/c she has gotten use to talking for him & telling him what to do but now the tables are turned & Carson is telling Erica what to do!!  LOL!!!  He has also gotten better w/using his words to put 3 to 4 word sentences together!!  Which the whole sentence thing is a BIG step up for him!!

We are planning a BIG project for Carson's birthday/christmas present!!  We are putting in a train track in his ceiling!!!  He is going to LOVE IT!!  And David is going to fix it to where Carson will be able to use the controls of the train so that he can choose how fast or slow his wants it & ect.!!!  We are going to have 1 HAPPY Boy on our hands once its done!!!

But that seems to be it for now & I'll update again soon!!!
