Last week the kids went back to school. Holiday break was ok. Everyone had a great Christmas. I cannot believe that all the kids loved everything they got. I managed to surprise the girls with some things they never thought to ask for and they adored them. Even Miss Picky (Elizabeth) had no complaints at all. It was a Christmas miracle lol.
Then, Patrick and Miranda got sick. Not a fun way to spend vacation but much better to be sick on vacation than while in school. They both had strep. Miranda also had an upper respiratory infection and Patrick had a double ear infection. My poor babies were miserable.
I was so nervous when school started back up. Last year, Patrick had a major regression and never got caught back up. I knew he had made positive steps at home but that doesn't always transition to school. This year it did! His teacher wrote me every day last week to marvel at the amount of progress he had made. Not only was he paying attention, he was attending to all tasks, imitating, initiating play with others, and basically doing everything we always hoped he would. Now, we just have to get him talking.
Next week is a big big week for Miranda. She is switching to a new dr before she transitions to an Internist for adults. Adults???? Yup in a couple months my baby will be an adult. I need a time machine so that I can go back to a time when she was a little baby in my arms. I will let her grow up but not until I've had this time to smother her with love and affection.
Also, Miranda is having her food challenge at the Allergist. As of next Thursday we will know for sure if she can eat shellfish or not. Cross your fingers that this baby can have crawfish for her 18th birthday.
Big things are happening. This week we will start boxing things up and getting ready for our move to a bigger apartment. I cannot wait!
Hope you all are having better weather than we are. Two weeks of dreary rainy weather. Spring is around the corner.
