What's up Doc?

Rick & I have been a little concerned about Michael for awhile now because he repeats everything & doesn't answer questions-just repeats what you said. I've talked to family & friends, some of whom think he's fine and some think he might be autistic. But for my own peace of mind I made an appt. with his doctor. Michael was not happy to be there because he remembered the last appt. where he got shots & bloodwork. After much convincing that there would be no "owies" he settled down. The doctor recommended that we take him to OHSU & have him tested there. From the little I know about the testing it sounds like they just talk & play with him while they take notes & do their evaluation. It will be a month or two before we can get in probably & it will take most of the day to do the testing. I'm a little worried but I'm looking forward to finding out what (if anything) we can do to help him. Wish us luck!
After the appt. we decided to take Michael to the carousel for being so good at the drs. He played on the playground for a little while but it was cold so we cut it short & Michael had a total meltdown. The joys of being a parent! Here are a few pictures before the meltdown.
