LOVE this video! My husband is going to crack up when I tell him about this, because I can't even say "Adirondack" right half the time:) The drinking is amazing also--I know how much work went into being able to do that (and have it stay down).
Is the alternative therapy Kaitlyn doing VitalStim by chance? Evan had that for a year--unfortunately it didn't lead to oral eating for him, but his swallowing/handling his own secretions improved a ton and he got much, MUCH louder. For a kid who can't hear much at all, he makes an amazing variety of vocalizations. I credit most of them to VitalStim therapy--before he was very quiet.

Maybe you can try putting tape over the red light so he won't focus on it, lol! Either way he is adorable, as it Kaitlyn =).
