DS fixed a glass of orange juice and brought it to H. H just took it and set it down on the table without saying anything. DS tapped his leg and said, "Say thank you." Lol

I got in and out of a craft store on pre-T Wednesday WITH Charlotte in 5 minutes and walked out with ONLY the thing I wanted to buy AND my sanity!!!!!

DS's Christmas list is entirely made up of toys. Not a single office supply or SmartBoard on there.

I am kind of not sure what to do with this, lol. He has never asked for actual toys before.

DS was Student of the Month for October. I forgot to post the last couple of times. I just can't see how he got it if his classwork is half done. No modifications or accommadations are on his IEP except he needs more time for homework.

The teacher wrote on a daily report that DS's time in general ed will increase.

I nominated a kid in my class even though he was barely squeaking through with a D. His work is also half done, but he is polite and kind, beginning to self-advocate, and starting to try to socialize, the latter two which have been struggles for him.

DD is pretty close to selectively mute.

Today we went to the Home Depot craft with her Daisy troop. They were making Christmas picture frames. All of the other girls either painted them red and green or pink and purple. DD painted hers orange and brown. Her Daisy troop leader came by and commented on her "interesting color choices". DD side-eyed her and spoke to her leader for the first time ever:

"I only in Girl Scouts because next I get be a Brownie and then I get wear brown."

In a complete tone of disdain.

+1 for choosing to speak
+1 for individuality
-2 for treating her like an idiot

DS has had the hearing aids for 3 weeks. His speech was a little better with speech, but it is also sounding much more clear since he got the hearing aids. So they are helping and such a relief. And they aren't too much trouble. I start testing the batteries and help him put them in but otherwise pretty smooth. Haven't gotten the bill but the statement from the hospital said we only owe $200 out of the $3500 plus.

That's so awesome!
