The short of it is that Robbie most likely has poor motor planning skills. This will effect him across the board, including speech. We need to have him diagnosed because if he does then his speech problem is a specific type called apraxia. It has a completely different treatment so it is very very important we get a correct diagnosis. If he does indeed have poor motor planning issues we are most likely looking at therapy for another 5 or so years.
Please be praying we get a good team to diagnose him, a correct diagnosis and good therapists to treat him.
Thanks!

6 Month Check-up
Henry's 6 month check-up was today. He weighs 16lbs and is 27 1/4 inches long. He has dropped significantly on the growth chart! A bit above average in height and 25th percentile in weight. Since both went down the pediatrician is not concerned. He is doing well overall. The only concern is his right leg. He doesn't put weight on it much and greatly favors the left. She referred us to a pediatric orthopedic so we will work that out soon. It is probably nothing that won't work itself out but we are gonna stick to the safe side just to be sure.
Poor kid is having some not nice reactions to his shots but doing well otherwise :)
