This blog is our journey after Austin was dx'd with autism shortly before his 2nd birthday.

Hooray! Hooray!
Therapy has really been working well for us. Austin is making certain sounds now like "mmm" for more and "sss" for snake (pictures in books, imitation, or plastic snakes). He also loves circle time where we sing "If You're Happy and You Know It". One of the versuses in the song is, "If you're happy and you know it, shout Hooray!". Austin really loves that part and will raise his hands above his head to the lyrics. Soon after he got used to the song, he would go find his Dr. Seuss ABC book and flip to the page shown in the picture above just so I would say "Hooray! Hooray!" and he could do the hand motions! He also brings me the letter "H" from our refridgerator magnets and likes me to say it then as well.

Well, he obviously knows his letters. Those are great pre-reading skills!
