Umm... yeah

So... did I mention that I was a week ahead of myself? This isn't vacation week. Try explaining that to a child with severe routine issues... lol. Luckily she loves school so she was relieved when I told her I was wrong.

We had a decent Easter... Beth and Peter were emotional messes by bedtime but that's pretty normal when it comes to holidays. We don't do big family functions so its really just the excitement and anticipation of the day plus the change in routine. They both work so hard to hold themselves together though.

I'm getting tubes put in my ears next Thursday so I can finally hear again and get rid of this nasty sinus crap that simply refuses to let me be. For whatever reason my ears refuse to drain and cause me all kinds of problems. Soooooooooo not fun.

Aside from that its been pretty humdrum around here. I'm crocheting still.. I need to do a picture blog soon!

Spring vacation...

Yep. It's the official beginning of spring vacation here. Day 1 and we've already had one sobbing meltdown. No, it wasn't me.

This one was Joelene. Princess Peanut cried for about 30 minutes because she says she can't believe in God, the Easter bunny, or Santa Claus. She says she can't believe in anything she can't see. We had a long talk about love, wind, and other various things she believes in but can't see. We talked about faith and trust. I think she gets it now but she's only 6 so only time will tell.

Mr. Monkey is turning 2 next week. I can't believe my baby is turning 2. He's growing so much but still has some very strong sensory issues. We are working on that and I believe the autism specialist that is going to start working with Peter is going to check Xander out just to be sure.

Still waiting on the written eval from the Dr. K about Beth. Once I have that we can continue the battle with the school to get my girl what she needs.

I'm trying to figure out what we are going to do this week to keep my kidlets occupied and engaged. I think maybe we might try a walk to the park one of these days depending on how my ears feel. I have to have my ears drained again on Monday. Fun stuff!
