Repeating Words

I know you all have been waiting for the update on Pennington's speech delay. The lady I was going to meet with had to reschedule the appointment so I don't even meet with her until November 3rd and that appointment doesn't included Pennington. So who knows when Pennington will finally get assessed. In the meantime he is starting to repeat words to us. He can now clearly say "Football" and "Touchdown". I know you are all laughing. This kids is obsessed with sports. This morning he just had to hold all three of his footballs. In the last few days he has made several attempts to repeat words we ask him to repeat. This is HUGE progress people. Just goes to show that when you seek out help all the sudden the problem isn't that bad. I'm still going to get him assessed but I am grateful to know that he is taking steps forward to being able to talk. YEAH!!!! Everyone keeps telling me that I should be happy that he isn't really talking yet because when they start I guess they wont shut up. I guess I will just have to wait and see. :)
