Today has been a nice day of staying home, and taking nap from being so tired from our weekend in Nashville. We got home yesterday evening, and I was so tired, but didn't get to bed until around 10pm. I really enjoyed the class me and Peggy took at Vanderbilt on Saturday. I met so many people that I have a lot in common with. I learned a lot of stuff about making playtime easy for us, and how to teach Ryan to want to play in different ways! It was great! I can't wait to go to other classes that they will be having. We went to Opry Mills mall and shopped a little and ate lunch at Johnny Rockets. Then headed home. I was so tired on the way home, b/c Ryan woke up at 3am just talking away, so none of us really slept good. I am sure Peggy was ready to get in he own bed after sleeping with Ryan and me. He did sing to us Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, so its kinda hard to get frustrated when you are lacking sleep, and your child is up for over 2 hours babbling in the bed, but sings in his sweet voice a song! Its great! I am so glad my mom, Peggy and Mamaw met me there, It real nice to have people to help, and spend time with. We had a lot of fun! Tomorrow is Ryans last day of Playgroup through Early Intervention. It is sad, b/c he loves it, but we will continue to see everyone there b/c that's where he receives his additional therapy. We are also headed back to Nashville tomorrow to start a speech workshop to teach us parents how to help our kids (Ryan) how to speak and communicate in a different way. We will be going to this class once a week through April, so we are about to be some tired people on Tuesdays after our Monday traveling back and forth, but if its as good as the class we just took, then I will be very glad we are able to be there and learn this for Ryan! Well I better go, Steven is ready for bed. Talk to you later.
