Ayden is turning 3!

Wow I cant believe I just put that as a title! Yes my baby is no longer a baby but turning out to be the sweetest most loving little boy! Monday is going to be a big day for Ayden! He is going to be celebrating his 3rd birthday, going to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate and going to be starting his first day of school at Keller Early Learning Center in their PLCD program and speech program! This makes me a little sad cause he is growing up so fast and is truly such an amazing little guy to be around and I am going to miss him while he is at school!
We have also already done his 3 year check up and I have to say it was an appointment that has really stuck in my mind lately and I am having to have faith that everything will be okay and that we are just facing an obstical of him just being immature with some mild behavior issues and not autism which If it turns out to be autism it's a very very mild form of it. I am so incredibly grateful that we are able to get Ayden the help he needs within the school district And also find him a behavioral pediatrician that can also guide us on this little unknown journey we are currently taking. As of right now Ayden's doctor is calling it PDD which means Persuasive Developmental Disorder which is an umbrella to ASD Autistic Spectrum Disorder. So we will find out more when we get him evaluated with the behavior doctor and also see what the school is saying. We also got Aydens stats while there he is 34 lbs and is 40 in and is in the 75% for weight and 93% for height! He has hit a major growth spurt we were in 24 month clothes the day he turned 2 and now we are in 4t crazy huh! I sure think so! But some good news that we got from the doctor is he sees a major difference in his speech he is still delayed but improvement has been made!!!

Ayden is also going to be starting baseball here probably within the next week and I am so excited and nervous all at the same time! Nervous in the aspect of I hope he will be able to focus and follow some direction while out there :) I do know and try to relax that god doesn't give us anything that we can't handle and that no matter the out come Ayden is and will always be my child who I love and cherish with everything I got that will NEVER change! And I also got to remember that none of this is my fault I struggle with this in the fact that I am an at home mom and maybe it's Something that I did or that I didn't do and should have done. I just keep telling myself to breathe take it day by day and everything will be okay no matter the outcome!

Ayden is a very active and vibrant 3 year old and sees the world as a fun and exciting place full of adventure! I can't wait to see what this next year brings and to seer how much he will grow! I can't wait to see the progress he will make at school and in his speech! I can't wait to see what kind of role model he will be to Clayton and the new tricks he will show him! Ayden makes my heart smile and feel whole and has been doing that for the last 3 years I am truly honored and blessed to be his mom! Happy 3rd birthday sweet heart! I love you with all my heart!!
