Starting off the weekend with some occupational therapy - learning the “sucking” movement with his mouth to be able to eat purées & move it around his mouth!
His face after is literally my favourite thing ever, he’s so expressive!! 🥰

Good morning everyone!

Jack is turning FIVE aug 2 ( isn't that wild!?!)

This year I've decided I'd love to collect donations from RMHC wishlist for his birthday!!
We have used the Ronald McDonald House Charities Southwestern Ontario multiple times throughout jacks life.

Please let me know if you'd like to donate anything and we can arrange pick up or drop off :)

I have such good news 🥰

Today - Jack & I attended a OT appointment at his school. During this appointment, I was taught different therapy techniques to help with Jacks head control, ways to help him stretch out his hips/legs and ways to assist him with feeding!!
After this appointment today, I’m feeling much better about working on things to improve jacks life! It felt so nice to be heard, taught and encouraged.

Here to working with Jack on new goals ❤️

Happy boy 🥰

Last day of school for this guy!

What an incredible year. We are so thankful for his teacher, assistants, nurse and bus driver!

He is developing into such an incredible little boy.
At school he loved music therapy and playing in his little room, all of the stories they read and all the yummy treats they baked! He used a head switch to communicate and can answer yes or no to the options presented to him.
He accomplished all of his term 1 and term 2 goals

Can't wait to see what he does next year at school!

On this week new skill to be learned…drinking by mouth! Jack immediately loved the bottle to cup sippy!!
With the heat, and summer approaching, it’s super important for me that Jack can drink when he wants & stay hydrated!

Jack is living his best life this March break with our previous respite worker, Ashley and her family!

Ellie, Ashleys daughter, is the sweetest thing.
Jack and her just adore each other. Ellie does not let Jacks disability get in the way of anything!
It is truly so heart warming to see the way she interacts with Jack.

Ashley, we are so blessed to know you and you should be so proud of the girl you are raising.
Thank you for taking on all these crazy kids this week!!

First picture is Ashley helping Jack shoot all the kids during a Nerf War.

Third picture is Ellie and Jack swinging together!
