So we are changing up the programs for Kaltynn’s ABA right now. She is pretty non-compliant in some areas since she doesn’t want to do the non-preferred tasks, but she is getting there.
I still haven’t signed her IEP yet. However, I have decided I feel Clouds (where Audrie will go) is the best placement for her for now. We shall see what they say. We are going to have to call another IEP.
So my real reason for today’s blog is to give Katlynn bragging rights yet again. She was able to point to and say several shapes such as circle, square, heart, diamond, rectangle, oval and moon (or as we know it crescent). She is doing so well with not only pronouncing words, but using her words more often. We are so very proud of her progress.

I might be bias... but she is beautiful!!
Your daughter is absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing her recent progress. I can tell you as one who works with adults with severe autism on the spectrum all of those "baby steps" of success lead quickly to huge leaps of success as time goes by. Continue to notice them and you'll be amazed at how quickly she progresses.
