Peter's Little Sentences

-
Peter has been working very hard to speak in complete sentences. We are constantly reminding him to say "I want. . ." instead of him just walking up to us and saying "Band Aid" or "milk."

This is a tremendous accomplishment for him and we are encouraged at how quickly he incorporates new behaviors.
