Shawn turned 4yrs old on Christmas Eve. He is 43 in tall and 42lbs He is still nonverbal but I have heard him say "josh" a couple times. that is his uncle josh. Then I hear him say "osh osh osh" also. I am very positive that he will learn to talk. He still naps from 1-3:15pm.I always wake him up or he will sleep till 4pm. he goes to bed about 8:45ish. 
He has a very brilliant mind that has really took off these last few months of being in preschool. He goes to preschool mon-fri from 8:30am to 11:45am. The first thing he does when he gets to school is: First he has to find his cubby hole which has a fish on it.The fish moves everyday. then he takes his own hat and coat off. He can finally unzip his own coat too. Then he will go pick out a book and sit quietly at the table.
What he has learned in school:
He know all the upper case letters of the alphabet
He is trying to match the lower case numbers with the uppercase and his teacher told me today that he picks letters out of a hat and puts it in the correct alphabet order.
He can match
He know several colors,numbers and shapes
somewhere down the line, he has learned to push the wood train set on the tracks.I bought him one for christmas also.
He is coming along great socially. He still prefers to play alone but sometimes he will really surprise me and play with his cousin Sydney for quite a while.
He favorite things to do haven't changed much. He loves watching tv and looking at books. His music book and his recorded book of his mommys voice are his favorite.
I recently introduced him to his grandpa's ipad. Boy was that a mistake. LOL He is totally addicted to it. I had to buy a door knob cover for our bedroom door and keep it shut now cause he will go in there and get the ipad.
Even thou Shawn lives with me, he has a very special bond with his mommy. He loves to go to her house and lay in bed with her and play. He hates it when it is time to go home. He will grab his mom and hug her and point for me to leave. He doesn't want to go. I love that he has that special bond with mommy.
