Hello Summer!

Yay, it's summer! Too bad I am not a teacher, I would love to be off. But I can't complain since I do three 12 hours shifts that leaves room to have plenty of fun. We took a mini vacation in May to Great Wolf Lodge for C's birthday. It was a blast! We may take a trip to NJ shore for a few days in July but our main vacation will be Disney in September! My mom surprised us with a stay at the Animal Kingdom Villa with the whole family. C and I are very excited and can't wait for Reese to enjoy the happiest place on earth. 

Reese is doing very well. Her progress lately is unbelievable. She is starting to enjoy the park/playgrounds; actually going on the equipment (swings only with me). But that is so BIG for her. She does stairs now without melting down. She is starting to consistently babble and has a few words. She says up, bubble, and signs milk, more, all done, up, and music. We got EI to give speech therapy every 14 days. It's frustrating because she could use it once a week now that she wants to talk. Her engagement and mimicking are so much better! She still gets OT and SI which helps a lot. We are BUSY 5 - 6 therapy sessions a week. Daycare twice a week and she has swim Saturday mornings! All of that has led to her success :)! Here are some pictures from the last month:
