What’s new with you and your kids?
Me:
Well our daycare person has been on vacation for 2 weeks, and my mom has been taking care of Maverick. At his in-home daycare, the lady takes care 6 kids total. Mav has been there since he was 15 months old.
He's been with my mom this last 2 weeks, and he’s been starting to really talk. Most of it is sort of slurry, and still a lot of grunts instead of asking for something, but he’s really trying!!!
As many of you know- I have been freaking out about how little Maverick is talking, especially compared to his cousins who are his age, but he’s a smart enough boy- can figure things out just by seeing other people do something.
Also, a lot of you know that Maverick has been a little anorexic vegetarian (I kid, but not really)- just hasn’t grasped eating well, and refusing meat all together. But since my mom has been watching him during the day- Maverick has been eating really well during all his meals and has ventured into meats!!! Turkey and roast beef just yesterday.
I now fully believe that daycare is stunting his progress. And I don’t know what to do about that.
