About this blog.

My son was diagnosed with PDD-NOS at 24 months. I created this blog to bring meaning to the often-confusing label. Sometimes I have answers. Other times, just more questions.

Brad and Jeremy playing.

This is truly a source of happiness and pride for me.



Brad is still floppy - we're still working on that. But he's come so far in terms of speech and social. I couldn't be prouder - of him.

Oh thank you so much for sharing this happy video!! It was so nice to see.

Egg is "floppy" too!

Laura said...

Thanks. rainbowmummy - yeah, Kranowitz refers to floppy kids as beseiged by the "gravity monster" - I like that.

Teacher-"Where is Egg's halloween costume?"
ME*pointing*-"There"
TEACHER-"Where, I can't see it, what is he?"
ME-"a gravity monster!"

I have never heard that before, I also like that. Egg just moves constantly. He is also a dive-at-the-sofa-and-land-upside-downer!

ps I forgot to say that the video makes me want a brother or sister for Egg....

I have a son who generally doesn't do too well around his peers, so I can imagine how wonderful this must be for you. They are doing so well!

Psstt. I found you via Quirky Mom. :)

rainbowmummy - LOL didn't mean to make your ovaries throb.

Kia - yeah Quirky Mom's blog is a great place to hookup. She knows all the good little spots.

That is great playing. I can't wait for my daughter to play like that too.

They are so cute. He looks like he's doing GREAT! I think my Orangeboy is proof that they can do well with moderate intervention - like you say. Thanks for commenting on my blog.

LJ's mom,
Hi and welcome. I didn't see an email addy so I'll reply here: Brad is going to be three in January. He was diagnosed at 24 months. So I'm far from an expert - just blogging real time about our journey and my ideas.
