DS2 had his SALT assessment!

Only waited a year! (Great with our family history huh!). Anyway apart from the fact I realised half way through that his eardrum had burst (!- bad mummy- he told me as we were leaving the house that his ear was "all dirty" but I told him it was just where he'd been crying! - we were late!) it all went well. Sooooooo different from an assessmnet with ds1. He had the SALT in stiches. At one stage he started to put his hand down my top so I told him to "leave mummy's chest alone" to which he shouted "no not mummy's chest mummy's boobies". The SALT just said that he obviously had a good vocabulary :o

Anyway- some sounds missing, but not much to worry about - she'll see him again in 3 months (one of my pet hates- kids like ds2 who don't really need much help/input get regular access to SALT- kids like ds1 who need it desperately get none for a year). In the meatime we have to practice s and f.

And the eardrum is healing nicely :o (although apparently still a bit "dore" - think we need to work on the s's).

Awwww! Hope his ear gets better soon. :)

LOL at the "boobies" comment. :o

He'd also mispronounced something and she said "can you say......." whatever it was. And he just looked at her and said "hmmm, no- my mouth too burpy" then wandered off to play with the toy kitchen. I was sat there in amazement, ds1 would have been sniffing the sink or screaming because the window was open.

The worst booby comment he's made was when we had a financial advisor come round- he sat on my lap shouting "I a baby boy I eat boobies" (he doesn't btw!!!!! he's just obsessed as he knows he has a baby brother coming! God knows what he'll be like when ds3 is here breastfeeding- I think I am going to have trouble with him!)

ROFL! :o:o:o

You should print a copy of those 2 posts to embarrass ds2 with when he's older. :o

Grin jimjams - love the "I a baby boy I eat boobies" comment! Ds2 stuck his finger in my tummy button the other day and asked if my willy was in there. What is it with boys and bodily functions/parts?
