Developmental update

Gavin went back for another update on his development on wed. and it went well. He is 8 months but his corrected ae is 6 1/2 months. He is ahead at 9 months with his reflexes and his balance when sitting. For his grasping and holding and rolling over and most other things he is at 6 months so he is right on track. but for his speech he is at 4 months. They said that his tongue isn't as strong as it is supposed to be so he is supposed to chew on textured toys. but what kid doesn't stick everything in their mouth any ways so that shouldn't be hard to do. He isn't sleeping threw the night yet (sucks for us) but they said that should come soon since he is delayed. He was in the 50th percential for height and head size and in the 90th for his weight ( no kidding he is 21 lbs.) But overall he is doing great he loves to stand and jump ALL the time. We are just looking forward to spring and summer and letting him play outside!!! Oh and we got a new stoller so we can't wait to use it more!!!
