Tony was very verbal today. While picking up his ball he said “ball”. So I said “do this” and rolled a ball. Tony then rolled his (imitated). When wanting to bounce on his exercise ball he said “bounce”. When I was lying on the ground pretending to sleep Tony grabbed my shirt and said sounds for “wake up”. This was a game he played inside the house and outside on the grass. When Tony wanted to open a box with his post-its in it I said “say open” while signing it. Tony made the sound for “open” so I immediately did it. We went through this throughout the session. When Tony wanted his cup I either held it or made it just out of reach. Tony was trying to grab for it or whine but I said “say cup” while signing it. When Tony didn’t do it after a couple of secs then I used hand-over-hand for the sign and immediately gave him the cup. Twice after Tony signed cup w/out physical prompt. Most the session Tony whined first for the cup before doing the sign. We also did this with “eat” while Tony had his breakfast. When Tony was stomping his feet while sitting I grabbed his feet and said “stomp” while stomping them. Then I stopped and held his feet to the ground. When he tried to lift them and couldn’t I said “say stomp” and he made the sounds for “say stomp”. After that I would stomp his feet. Then I would stop again, hold them and he would repeat “say stomp”. When Tony grabbed my hand and led me to the tv I tried to get him to do the sign for “movie” but no luck. He was still eating his nuggets and this was the only opportunity of the session. Tony requested “jump” verbally and held his hands up for me to pick him up. Outside we played “aah boom” and Tony put his hands to my mouth while going “aaaahhh”. The tv showed different images of the color brown while repeating the word and Tony made the sound for “brown” a couple of times. When I was tickling Tonys ears I said “say ear” and put Tony’s hand to his ear. He made the sound for “ear”. While watching tv he looked at me and said “hi” and smiled. Tony made a lot of incoherent sounds the whole session. Today I mainly focused on mands “open” and “cup” (for drink). Although Tony whined some with requesting his cup it was only for a sec or two and once he got it he was fine. I also sang the alphabet song and counted numbers like OT, letting Tony fill in the blanks with approximations for the letters or numbers. Tony likes being grabbed and having me do the “head, belly, knees, and toes” game while grabbing his hands and placing them on the body parts as I say the words. Tony patted his belly, knees, and toes on his own, too but not his head. Tony was really sleepy at noon and started to whine some while grabbing the gate to upstairs so we knew it was nap time. His mom did the sign for “sleep” and said “night, night” then took him to his bed and he fell asleep. Good day! Tony learns so quickly!
