MANUEL-D5h (Day 5 home)
(from Yesterday)
After eggs and corn tortillas breakfast I did Manuel's therapy and cleaning and bandages changes. His right knee is looking infected. I'll keep an eye on it.
I took Ki to Krispy Kreme for breakfast. It was a Mommy Date.
My hubby stayed home today to help the boys work on the Pinewood Derby cars. He lets them do as much as they possibly can on their own- just provides instruction and overseeing things like elecetric power tools. So it is taking quite a while. I like the their cars look like a car a kid made. It bugs me when parents do these things for their kids- the car definately lloks like an adult did it all, and the adult made car beats out all the kid-made cars... that just makes me upset! What are they teaching their kids!!!
Back to earth- and we went to lunch with Brian's padres (parents). We took Manuel to Chipotle. I LOVE their food but I HATE HATE HATE their restaruant. I get migraines from all that NOISE and commotion!!
Came home and the guys got started on their cars. I went to a cafe to work on my school schedule (and avoid all the nose of power tools and BOY NOISES- those sound effects boys make 24/7....)
I have a week of planning- with dr appointments and BiLingual lessons. I don't have the workbooks planned out yet.
And it is time for Therapy and bath for Manuel again.
Then we will have dinner and go to Bible Study.
**Bible Study went well. Manuel made it up their huge staircase and was all smiles. Then he went down to the basement (that's a second flight of stairs) and played Ping Pong with Brian. Allthose stairs made his leg bleed quite a bit this morning. |
