HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAXTON #3

I can't believe that it has already been another year. My kids are getting so big, well not really just older LOL.

Daxton has been our happy little boy. When he was born he has swallowed the fluid during his birth and was kept in the nursery for the first 6 hours. Mom was a complete wreck. I wasn't able to hold or even touch him. Thank goodness he finally got it all up and turned out too be a healthy little boy. Then, when he was getting older and was such a quiet baby Mom and Dad kept thinking yea we finally got a quiet baby, but little did we know that he really had speech delay. When he was about 18 months old he wasn't even chattering like a six month old baby should do. Then when he hit two they had a speech therapist coming to our home once a week for about 6 months and then when he hit 2 1/2 he finally reached the 6 month age bracket for speech. Yeah. The milestones that don't seem much too normal kids are huge for him. Now he is in a special Ed preschool for his speech and he is doing amazing and they aren't sure how much longer that he will be allowed to stay there because if he starts talking in two and three word sentences he will be over qualified for that program. So we are really excited for his major improvement in such a small time.

Daxton has always been a special boy. At a very young age he was unloading the dishwasher, washer and the dryer. He has always had a fascination for garbage. He loves to help people and has OCD (like his mother) and has to always throw away his trash. Very clean boy(except for his face) A little story when he was about 2 we were at church and we pulled out a wipe to clean him after eating snack during sacrament, He kept freaking out that he had to find the garbage and throw it away. So, thinking that it was right at the end of our row I okayed him to go, well I finally realized after hearing him calling out "garbage, garbage, garbage" over and over walking around the chapel seeking for a garbage. Remember it was supposed to be quiet. But he was so proud of himself for finding the garbage and throwing it away. What a handsome boy. He always has the biggest cheese face on him. Now that he is learning to talk he is so proud of himself. When he is trying to get your attention he will call your name until he can see you, Then when he see's you he says "I was calling you". Well the best that he can say it. It is the cutes thing ever.

Well I hope that you have a special day today little man, Mom and Dad love you alot.
