Karate, Speech Therapy and others....

Shane and Brennan are doing Karate in Flourtown with the Chripczuks. They go twice a week for a half hour each and love it (specifically because of the boxing gloves they got).

Owen qualifies for speech therapy through the IU. The woman couldn't understand him during the evaluation and his stuttering has gotten more frequent. I think he started stuttering in June or July. Yesterday, I took him to see the pets at PetSmart and I asked him if he liked little dogs or big dogs. He couldn't get the word 'little' out of his mouth and got really upset. Although he needs an IEP for this, he obviously needs it.

Owen had a great first day of preschool. He cried going in and didn't want to go all morning. I put him on the floor and Mrs. Gillinger took him. I dropped Shane off (no problem whatsoever) and peeked in to check on Owen again. He was completely fine.
