Matthias has figured out (at least we are just discovering it, he's probably known for awhile) how to answer the phone and control the VCR (ya we're old school like that, we have both VCR and DVD).
The intriguing thing to me is he had to have learned it just by watching us, seeing as none of us have shown him how too. The VCR I can see how, but the phone is different. Its a portable phone so he had to figure out which button of all the buttons on the phone is the one to answer with.
All this does is continue to show me how much my handsome absorbs of his surroundings even when we are not aware of it. THAT is a huge thing my friends :) See just 2 years ago he could care less about what was going on around him :) And now he is memorizing how to do things.
He certainly does now how to make his Momma proud :)
Much Love,

Yea! Progress is awesome!
My son was the opposite (ah, you got love how broad that autism spectrum is.) He knew how to work the DVD player at 18 months and could show grandma when she was watching him (completely non-verbal.) He knew after 2 Spongebob shows it was bedtime and that daddy comes home when the Simpsons came on. Yup, routine and consistency right from birth with this kiddo.
