Wednesday: talking, geocaching

Today we went to a speech pathologist in the morning.  Isaac has had problems with s blends, and sometimes we notice that other people can't understand him very well.  Well, she said that he was right on track.  S blends (sh, sp, sn, etc.) don't always come until 7yrs old.  The other sounds were good, and his vocabulary and communication skills were good.

We came away with a few things to help with the s blends.  The cutest moment was when we were getting ready to leave and she asked if I had any more questions.  I said no, but Isaac said there was one word they hadn't covered.  So he told her that he was having problems with "top light."  She looked at me, I interpreted, and they went through how to say "stop light".  I was pretty proud of him for asking about it; it's one of the words we've talked about in the car.

After that we went geocaching with Betsy and her kids.  Well, we tried.  There were a ton of options in Paw Paw park, a new park to both of us, but most were hard to find/unfound for quite a while/in the middle of tall grass.  I should have looked harder at the options there, especially since it was their first time and we haven't done it all that much.  But we did explore a new park and that was fun. Isaac and Joshua both picked up some rocks.
