"Ah, Oh, Eh"

Just had a pretty big breakthrough with Grayson! 

As most of you know Grayson is non-verbal and gets Speech Therapy (along with several other therapies) and anytime he makes noises.."Ah, Oh, Eh".. We should try to encourage it by doing the nose back and see if he will play a sort of mimicking game...Welll we have been running errands and Grayson made the "Ah" sound so I, per usual, said "Ah" back and turned around and smiled at him and turned back around not thinking anything...Welllll he did it again, so I did it again repeating the same pattern of making the noise and smoking back at him... This time he smiled SO big and let out a laugh and much to my surprise this back and forth mimick went on for about 10 minutes straight of him making "Ah, Oh, Eh, Om" and smiling and laughing with it all! 

This is HUGE for Grayson and I couldn't be more excited and proud of him! 

I will try to get a video at some point over the new few days :)
