Ben's New Shirt

(Coming October 2010)

He's pretty excited about it.

Bennett just had his two year check up. He's great! That is beside the point, however.

At this check they did the autism screening. I received a "book" to fill out about all of his habits and developments. When the doctor came in to tell me how Ben did, he said that Ben's scores were all in the normal range except for in one area. On the question about how he plays with dolls (feeds them, cuddles them, etc) I had to answer no. Next to it I wrote "He doesn't play with dolls." Apparently simply being a boy puts you at risk for autism. The doctor had a good laugh out of Ben's lack of interest in baby dolls!
