小飞午觉醒来,闭着眼睛摸妈妈,突然睁眼看到摸的是猫,说 不要猫猫。猫猫自觉下床,去闻脏衣服了。

小飞在Jill屋里特别快分神,可能因为英文听着累,听懂的也少。

晚上睡觉让妈妈唱 雪花 (雪绒花)。好久以前唱的歌了。


Nothing special today. Our speech therapist Jill added another session on Sunday from 12:30pm to 1:30pm, which is great! Andre is always off at Jill’s session, I don’t know why. Mom said probably it’s 100% in English and his English is much weaker than his Mandarin Chinese, so he needs more energy to focus. It make sense to me. Hopefully it will be better.

Mom Went To The Urgent Care

妈妈去了urgent care,因为心跳快.胸闷气短,背疼很多症状。可能是焦虑和抑郁症。医生开了抗抑郁药。爸爸买了茶胺酸,给小飞试了一点。

Aww…. Andre woke up at 5am again this morning. His sleeping is really an issue which is totally not good for his development. I get him up let him did 400 times jumping and 15 times sit ups. Also gave him some snacks and warm milk and about 0.8mg melatonin. Put him back on bed again around 6:40. He fall asleep again on 8:50am and suddenly woke up again at 9:15. Jeees…We tried everything we know to let him sleep better, not still nothing worked. We are still trying. We though probably he has high anxiety level, but not sure.

OT session with Echo at Carrico Carrico Pediatric Therapy and PT with Courtney at 123 Pediatric Therapy in the morning, and then lunch, then swim class. He fell asleep for nap really fast after that, from 2:20pm to 5:35pm. Then woke him up, put him in the car for another PT session with Karen in Centra Pediatric Therapy.

Mom went to the urgent car because she felt short of breath and heart beat fast. The doctor prescribed her some anti pills for depression. She took it before bed time and it was working good. We also bought some Threonine. I checked the amazon review, and saw a lot of people gave it to their kids with ASD or ADHD, and got some great result. So I gave Andre very small dose. He looked more calm. We will try it for next few days see how it is going.

He pooped today! Good! We feel relief, lol.

在Grace的OT session主动问妈妈要什么颜色的积木。不错~

晚上睡觉上楼前主动去要给小鱼喂食。

Andre slept about 10.5 hours last night. He asked mom “what color (of the lego) you want” when he was in the OT’s session. Impressive! He was still whining a lot when Grace the OT let him jump on the stepping buckets. It’s been for a while. Grace told us before that this is because of him poor proprioception which make him afraid of height, even just a little height. Today we asked Kim the PT right after the OT’s session, and Kim said it’s not only because of the proprioception, as he should be able to adjust himself pretty quickly if it’s only because of that. There should be some physiological reason. That make sense to me. We are thinking about remove the stepping buckets part from Grace’s OT session for a while. Also we are planning to buy the stepping buckets, and let Karen the PT from 123 Pediatric therapy to practice on him. Because Andre works a lot better when in her clinic, for example, Andre will jump from a 20” height place comfortably for her, but won’t do this for us. We will see how it’s going.

He took the swim class today, but did not fall asleep for nap, even with 0.2mg melatonin. It seems he got very exited and the nerve system did not calm down for some reason.

Before he went up stairs for sleeping, he asked to feed the fishes! Its not the first time, he asked many times before, but still we are very happy to see this happening.

Still no pooping today, two days in a row.

Messed Up Sleeping

小飞昨天+晚上只睡了5个小时,早上被爸爸报下楼,和猫猫关一起关了1个小时,小飞变成了猫猫的大玩具。小飞爬着跑,猫猫追。小飞被猫猫霸凌了。

小飞说: 明天游泳,今天不游泳。(好像是第一次明确今天和明天)

小飞第一次给猫猫加食盆,猫猫来闻闻,小飞怕怕。

小飞对着猫猫口中念念有词,问他干什么呢,回答说singing...

得知今天不用游泳了,小飞精神特别好。去上语言课都乐的在屋子里转来转去。

晚上用粉笔第一次画了完整的火车!就是之前不好意思回答爸爸问是什么的(烟囱),原来是在不断练习中!

小飞把水池灌满水,然后在水池里吐泡泡。

小飞上楼睡觉前还确认了一下小猫在不在屋子里。


Andre messed up the sleeping last night. He only slept about 5 hours from 12:30am to 5:30am. After he got up, I put him in another room with the kitty, and push him to interact with kitty. He was still scared to be with the cat. He was keeping doing delayed echolalia. It seems this is a self protection way to calm his nerve system. I asked him what he was doing, and he answered me “singing“. It was really funny Andre was crawling and the cat was chasing after him. I let Andre refilled cat food in the bowl. I think this is very practical and can practice his fine motor skills as well. Good for him!

Since the schedule is messed up, we only brought him to the PT session in the morning and then let him take a 4 hours nap. He is really happy we missed the swimming class. He said “NO SWIM TODAY, SWIM TOMORROW“ Wow! This was the first time he is using today and tomorrow. Huge for him. It seems he was extremely relaxed and even running around in the room when he was doing the speech therapy in the afternoon.

We went to the Yorba Regional Park after the ST session. We love this park as it has a straight and long driving way that Andre can bike. After the biking he played at one of the playgrounds. He had a lot of physical activities today!

When he washed his hand before dinner, he put water in the sink and was blowing in the water. That was a practice from the swimming class!

He drawled a more complete train head in the garage in the evening for the first time. Finally I knew that was the half circle with two lines under it. It’s the chimney! In the recent couple of weeks he was keeping drawing that thing alone. When I asked what was that, he answered ‘half circle‘. He was practicing secretly. How interesting!

Before he went to bed he went to the kitty’s room to make sure the kitty is there. I feel he likes to have some kind of connections with the cat but just don’t know how. That’s social part he is missing.

No pooping today.




First time Andre vomited

He vomited 3 times last night. Probably because he ate a bad cheese or I fed him too much. Aww…

But his energy was back today. Had all the therapy sessions expect the swimming class

小飞第一次呕吐,3次。后来只吐液体了。第二天生龙活虎了。没上游泳课。其他therapy都上了。
