With the weather being so wet/icy/cold and crazy, I've been kinda busy lately! D has had to work alot, and with some crazy hours! With Landon being sick week before last, and Brandon having a cold thing last week I've been swamped with the sick bugs. Cleaning, cleaning, and more cleaning is what we did this weekend! My house looks the same....yet I know it's cleaner :) I was able to take an hour and go to the Kidstown consignment sale and get Isaac some puzzles that one of his therapist recommends. And we left right from there to go to Urgent Care for D. Poor hubby had a gout flare up in his ankle and was finally off work to go see someone about it. He is now almost over the limp. Yay!
Now that I have somewhat calmed down after my wonderful breakdown and everyone is in pretty good health, maybe Thursday when everyone is in school I can finally go meet the nephew and if April's up for it go see her and Ms. Cassetty. Just seeing pictures aren't doing it!
I keep posting the gofundme link on fb, so if you get a second please share even if cannot donate! Jack did pay for his speech until the first week of March, and then we are going to have to stop it. We're hoping that by then TEIS speech will start, but there is no guarantee, and he will only get it once a week. We know the psychologist recommended minimum of twice a week, but we aren't able to do that. So please go share the link, thanks!! He is now saying Mamamamama...but doesn't stop with like mama. He is working on the M sound, so we're happy. He is still signing please wonderfully and finally doing the sign for more. We are working on the concepts of UP and DOWN, waving bye bye when D leaves for work, and the word CAR (his favorite toys and favorite movie)! He is also working on IN and OUT. Putting beans in ice trays and taking them back out. He seems to really like doing that!
In more odd news, and since we are looking at Isaac possibly being in diapers for a year or more to come (although we are working on that in therapy slowly) we have invested in cloth diapers. Very few will fit my big boy, and when I told Carol she said no. LMAO. I'm guessing as with most people, she isn't aware cloth diapers have come a long way since they used them and honestly I can't wait til the big bunch gets here so I can get started. This happens to be one of those "If I'd know he would be in them this long, we would have done this from the start." This start up will pay for itself and be a money saver by the time he is 3. I will update on how that is going.
All in all, having today (well, from 930-230) to catch up on stuff that has been needing to be done, and relax for a few minutes has been so great. With sick kids, and I do clean my aunts house one all school day every two weeks, the pool overflow fiasco, it has felt like I was so swamped I couldn't breath. Insert my mom who came and saved me on Thursday. Super Nana. As soon as she teaches me how to sew...I'm going to make her that cape. Sparkly and all. And she did say she'd teach me how to sew! I am truly and eagerly and not so patiently waiting...I'm super excited!
Gotta go! There goes the dryer. Time to switch the clothes!
