A trip “home”
Last weekend the kids, Jon and I headed “home.” Caldwell, OH – my hometown! It is always great to catch up with everyone. Although the weather and then seizures did keep us from seeing everyone we had hoped to see! Our weekend started off on Friday meeting up with another amazing little girlie with Rett [...]
Time
Telling time is another first grade standard that we want to make sure that Brooklyn has all figured out before entering second grade. I have to be honest…I was VERY unsure of how much Brooklyn knew about the clock/time. I had not spent much time on it at home and it seemed according to her [...]
Boat Ride
Brookie and I finally made it out on the boat with Kristin and Josh. It’s been so hot we just have not been able to go out on their boat. Heat can be a trigger for Brookies seizures so we just have to be careful :( Oh to not have Rett Syndrome dictate our fun…….

more bath fun
This little kiddo who went through his phase of hating water is getting brave! I mentioned that he loves his bath lately – now, his latest is to stick his face under the faucet! Just look at that sweet face, I think he is making sure it is ok? Forget sticking his tongue in it [...]
Learning to Self Feed
Today when Grammy was feeding Boston his cereal – which she was helping him hand over hand…we decided “why not” – lets get this self feeding started :) I had forgotten what a fun and SUPER messy process this was!! I do not know if this video adequately shows the amount of cereal that was [...]
