I guess I kind of dropped the ball
on this one… Coby has only been 3 for over a month now.
|
In the last year Coby has come
extremely far and has grown more than I think we ever expected. He is still a
super tiny guy, but seems to be doing just fine physically. In the last year
we were able to get him into some “schooling” where he received both physical
therapy and speech therapy and it has honestly helped him more than anything
I think ever could have. He has gone from a basically non-verbal boy to
someone we can have a full conversation with. He still struggles with a lot
of words, but he has found his voice and we are so proud of him. He is still
incredibly clumsy and trips and falls all the time. We hope that we will be
able to find a new program here in New York where we can get him back into
physical therapy to help with that, and also into speech to continue his growth
with his language. I guess the only thing I can say is that we are so proud
of this kid and his strong will to keep growing!

Stats:
Height – 3’1”
Weight – 29.8lbs
I don't have the exact percentiles, but I do know in both height and weight he is between the 25th and 50th percentile. So that's progress!

Likes:
Trucks – to say trucks
are his favorite would be an understatement. He calls them “hucks” but he loves
them so much that he even says bye to them as we are driving down the road.
Every time he will say, “bye huck, see next time!”
Anything with wheels –
not only does he like trucks, but he likes trains, cars, airplanes, anything
that moves he loves.
His brother – he pretty
much will repeat everything Lucas says, he also follows him pretty much
everywhere. It is very cute!
His daddy – he is most
certainly a daddy’s boy, he will run to Vinnie before anyone else in the world.
Blaze and the Monster
Machines – I thought for a long time Coby was never going to find a favorite
show/character, but I guess he just needed a show all about trucks to find his
favorite.
“Blazing” – okay really
it’s just running, but anytime he can he will yell, “let’s blaze” and then go
running toward his chosen location.
Dislikes:
Eating – he is not a fan
of sitting at the table or eating on a schedule. He will fight tooth and nail
if he doesn’t feel like it’s the right time for him to eat.
Diaper changes – He most
certainly hates them, but doesn’t care enough yet to want to potty train. He
has made some indications but every time we try he is still not quite ready to
follow through.
Being roared at – I know
that seems like a really odd statement, but he hates it and Lucas thinks it is
hilarious to do it. So Coby screams and runs away until either mom or dad stop
the interaction.
