Parent Teacher/Conference for Ansley 5-16-08

On Friday, John and I went to Palmetto Prep and met with Ansley's teacher, Jessica LaBombard for a parent-teacher conference to discuss Ansley's progress. Mrs. Jessica said that Ansley is doing great. Ansley is playing well with others and has developed several interests. Her favorite thing to do is listen to music. Jessica said that Ansley will sit and listen to music for up to 45 minutes. Next to music is art and crafts. She is really good at stringing beads to make necklaces and gluing. Not only is she good at arts and crafts, she really seems to enjoy it and has developed really good dexterity for her age. She also has a "better than average" vocabulary by being able to speak more than 10 words. She can say "Hi, Uh-oh, Sit, Bailey, ball, good girl, thank you, mine, more..."

Jessica also commented on how Ansley is a light sleeper and just walking by her cot can wake her up. Ansley is usually the last one in her class to go to sleep and the first to wake up. Ansley is also pretty independent. She will play with Bailey and her other classmates, but she is fine to play by herself. The last thing that we discussed was removing Ansley's pacifier. We think that we may try weaning her from it in about a month.
