He had a Thomas the Train bday party and it turned out so cute. My friend Jennifer had all the creative ideas for his party. Anytime you asked Reid who was coming to his party he would say "Thomas, Percy, James, Gordon" he would never call his friends names. It was so cute. Everyone came that was invited and they showed Reid so much love.
We had to move the party inside but we didn't let the rain ruin our fun. We had a family party the night before since we had all our family in town. Reid loved his cupcakes and had so much fun opening his presents. I am so thankful the Thomas phase will be here to stay. I believe little boys like trains for many years.
Reid weighed 35lbs which was 80th percentile and was 39 inches tall which is the 85th percentile.
Reid is not fully potty trained but he is very close.. he has trouble going to bathroom in a public restroom. We don't trust him fully yet so he wears his pullup and underwear out in public but we always come home wet. I am just thankful he does good at home and he is finally interested.
He still doesn't eat well at all. He only eats waffles and peanut butter (3 meals a day). We have been researching Sensory Processing Disorder and we think since Reid shows many of the characteristics that maybe that is contributing to the eating problem. We will be seeing a pediatrician that deals more in that area hopefully by the end of the year.
He is sleeping in a big boy bed and seems to do fine in it. He hardly ever goes to sleep at nap time anymore. When he doesn't nap it makes for an easy bed time. He goes to bed between 6 and 7 on the nights he doesn't nap. He is so tired that it doesn't take him long to fall asleep.
He starts school in Sept. He will go three half days a week. I think he will do fine in school. Thank goodness he already knows all of his letters, numbers and colors. I am wanting to start letting him learn to trace letters soon. His teacher came to visit and we really liked her and she was very sweet and patient with Reid. She played trains with him while he was here and he even gave her a hug and kiss when she was leaving.
Reid loves his sister and loves to get his stool and look in her bed in the mornings when we get her up. She is starting to get mobile and I can tell he is going to have a hard time sharing his toys.
