This past week Mason had an appt with an behavioral disorder/autism specialist here in the valley. It was a great appt and opened our eyes to alot of things with Mason. Many we already knew about and observed and a few were new.
The main reason we took Mason to this doctor was a referal from our PCP to have an Autism/ OCD screening done.
Mason was diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome and High Functioning Autism. We've thought for quite a while that this might be the case but haven't had an "official" diagnosis as to date. The doctor gave us some great referrals on follow up psycological treatment and also sent a letter to the school to help set up some services there to help with OT and PT.
If you want to learn more about Asperger I found

Thank you for your support through all of this! I'm glad we finally have an answer and hope for a quick road to better social skills for Mason.
