Snow and Sickness

I like this stuff
Mom what is this?



Well although he enjoyed being home from school and playing in all the snow. Kaden is sick and has been since he came inside yesterday. So although there is school today Kaden is staying home. I figured why send him when they would end up calling me to get him anyways. Skyler was running a fever last night but he kinda has been the last few days as he has three teeth coming in. He has no other symptoms so hopefully he does not catch what Kaden has. While Skyler has not even touched the presents, Kaden can not leave them alone is dying to open just one he says. He told me mommy i was good at school and home can i open one now? Well i have to go Skyler just woke up.

Skyler's Injury









Skyler tripped and fell right into the handle on the drawer in the kitchen. Unfortunately his head hit it pretty hard and left a nasty spot right in the middle of his forehead. We are lucky though as this is really his first major injury so he is doing better than his brother.

Update

We took this picture for Daddy when he was in Nebraska and sent it to his phone. He loved it
He always closes his eyes

Kaden loves to dress up in costumes and play. This one i got on clearance at Wal-Mart for $1.25


Skyler and Tommy are both sick. Kaden and I as of now feel fine. Kaden started on a new medicine and he is doing alot better, especially at school. His teacher said he is not having as many problems the major one right now is getting him to stop talking non stop and too fast. He was almost suspended off the bus but he is doing better there as well. Let's home things are going in the right direction for him. He is so smart and his teacher said he has scored super high on them. He loves to build with blocks and doing arts and crafts is his favorite as well. He spends hours in the basement making stuff. He recently made a book for his teacher and he done really well. He even made a front and back cover that matched and lots of pages in the middle. He made sure to draw or write on each page. I know that some family and friends question if we are doing the right thing with Kaden as they think that everything is fine and he is a normal 5 year old boy. As his parents we too did not want to have to go down this route, but you also have to understand that not everyone sees what we and the teacher's go through everyday with him. I know plenty have seen him act out but try multiplying what you see by about 5 and that is what we see alot of. He is super sweet and loving but can have a complete the world is ending meltdown fast. We love both our boys equally and try to keep things equal between them. That is not always easy as Skyler has to sometimes wait so that we can tend to Kaden. I am still planning on returning to work hopefully still this school year but i may wait until next school year. It depends on how things go. At the beginning of the school year they were talking about either taking Kaden to half days or pulling him out till next year, and i have had to go pick him up several times. So we will see how things keep going and go from there.

TGIF



Skyler is now a pretty much mastered walker. He still falls but can walk all over now. Kaden had his appointment with the Occupational Therapist last Wednesday and he was diagnosed with the Sensory Disorder he will be starting 12 weeks of therapy 1x a week with a reevaluation in 4 weeks to see how he is doing.

We have a Walker

I know that it is blurry but it is the only one i have been able to get so far. Skyler is 14 months old now and is finally walking. He has not mastered it yet but he is walking quite a few steps before he falls and he is able to turn a little when he is walking.
