Today was my first day with Tony by myself. When I arrived this morning he was watching Wiggles and eating a banana. He actually ate a lot of food this morning a banana, chicken and a waffle. We then decided to go paint and he manded for his paint shirt and the brushes. When he told me he was all done painting, he then manded for sandbox. Before we went outside, he manded for bug spray and to open the door. When we were pulling the cover off of the sandbox, we noticed a green lizard. Tony was very excited to see the lizard and kept saying hi lizard. Later on when we decided to go on a walk behind the house, Tony found another lizard and was just as excited and kept trying to run after the lizard in the grass. Tony then manded for me to lift him. We then played stop and go. This consisted of me holding Tony and running and then stopping when he says stop. This only went on for about 5 minutes because I couldn’t run while holding him anymore…lol. After coming back to the house we watched Elmo, Blue Clues and Nightmare while coloring. I also attempted to do some ABA but only got a few things done today. After awhile Tony manded for bus and we hung out in the bus for about 30 minutes. He brought his dolls and was pretend playing with them in the bus. Today was a long day for Tony but he was really good. See ya Monday!
