Movin' on up. . . .

A couple weeks ago Max went from being a ducky to an otter. What does that mean?!? It means he moved to a new room at day-care! He is now with a group of kids that are 18 months to 2 years old. A month or so ago, the director of the center asked me what my thoughts were about moving him up. She felt that it would help him developmentally to move up. She said that he has outgrown the room he was in. John and I met with the director and his teacher and agreed to move him up. I was not nervous at all about the transition since the led teacher in his room was also his lead teacher in the baby room and knows Max very well. And has been waiting to get Max back in her room again. We were excited about the new step in Max's life. And he is doing great. He sits on a little chair for meals and naps on a mat. Which, to my surprise, he is doing very well with both. I can't believe he is napping on a mat! They said his favorite part of the day is circle time where they sing songs and read books. He gets one of his g-tube feeds during circle time and sits very well for it. I am so glad we have a great, safe place for Max and Ava to spend their days while John and I are at work. They have never made us feel like they cannot handle Max's needs.
