Well, we had another soy infraction yesterday and thus, today we have a different child in our home. It's a sad thing to see and we just have to wait it out so we can get our Nathan back. Here are some things he's been doing:
Crying - A lot about everything
Screaming when people sit or walk near him
Screaming when people talk to him
He fell to the ground crying when my sister looked at him (she has that effect to some people :)
Staring
Strange eye gazes
I got home tonight and found him in his car seat with his elbows bent, hands suspended in the air and a blank stare on his face. It only stopped when I moved him to unbuckle him.
Odd hand and finger movements and poses
Oh, and I'll keep the potty talk out of it...
That's all I can think of now, but it really is a sad thing to watch. It makes me wonder where we would be had we not acted on all of this and acted quickly.
On a happier note, he did great with his new therapist and did great with Bryanna. It was a 5 hour session for him, he seemed a little tired, but did well all in all. Also, he woke up this morning, pointed at a star and said; "star" "green star." :)
I'll let you know when our old Nathan comes back. For now I have to go and get him and put him to bed because he is staring at a salt and pepper fight on the TV!
