Scoots

Nico got to spend some time at the cabin with the Grandparents Salisbury. He really enjoys chopping pine needles with Papa. Check out the video at the end of the post! Nico throws away the pine needles if they are too big (he knows from experience that they are harder to chop).


One thing he did while he was at the cabin, that he repeated here at home, was line up all of his cars around the table. When he did this at home, his basket of cars was in his bedroom and he would run back there and get a few to bring back to the table. Back and forth until he had enough.


Nico received an early birthday present this week from the Grandparents Salisbury. A scooter! We took it out for a spin. He was VERY excited. Thank you both!!


On Saturday we went to both Saturday markets. In the parking garage elevator, Nico pressed the Emergency Call button, which automatically made a call to 911. The automated voice kept repeating (very loudly): THERE IS AN EMERGENCY IN THE _______ ELEVATOR. I thought it would never stop, but when it finally did, the 911 dispatcher came over the speakers and asked if there was an actual emergency. I told her that my young son had pushed the button not knowing what it did. She said thank you for letting her know. Phew!

Both of our speech therapy appointments this week were cancelled. The first one by Marcia, the second one by us. Nico woke up this morning and as soon as we got him up, he emptied his stomach contents onto Guy's shoulder. He was fine afterward, and we had a normal day, 3 meals (although a delayed and reduced breakfast) and our normal snacks, but I cancelled anyway, just in case!

p.s. Ran into a neighbor on a walk this week that remembered Nico's rain walk last week. She said it was so cute to see Nico walking around in his yellow rain jacket, head totally obscured from view by his humongous umbrella. We had walked right by their front window and they just got a kick out of it.
