Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

{{{Cashmere}}} You're a great mom, as evidenced by the fact that if Owen needs speech therapy or anything else, he's going to get it. Try not to worry too much in advance.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Thanks, guys. I'm not in full blown panic but it's disconcerting to have a professional tell you something might be amiss. I'm not worried about ASD too much. I'm assuming he's an introverted personality who's just working through things at his own pace.
I've taken to working with him when Liv naps and have noticed some progress with the drills (specifically "asking" words which he had been lacking). I think he might fare better with a professional speech (speach?) therapist if that's one of our options. As it is, I can't speculate on what's slowing him down and I'd almost rather not. I know someone who's four year old son was in the programs my ped suggested for Owen and he's already caught up completely (he wasn't saying ANYTHING at two years old). So I do have some contacts with other mothers here that can put my mind at ease.
I would give anything for a picture of CJ with Poppin Fresh. Truly.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Random funniness: Whenever I type my real-life name into a Word doc, it wants to change it to Mount.

It looks like we're going to be looking at an apartment on the street we already live on tonight.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
