We went to Mexico. it was a lot of fun.We left in our VW van and half way there our van broke down in Arizona.Sense we were going to house-sit for a family in mexico we emailed them and they called a family they new very well and the father came and towed us to there house for a little over two weeks and got ourselves a new car and continued on our way to Mexico. We stayed in Mexico for a month and I loved it.

So Busy

I have been so busy with my family and my own personal stuff going on that I haven't had any time of late to blog here. I don't have time tonight either, but tomorrow I will blog about Micah's new O.T.

Josiah has finished most of 2nd grade. We started a new Spelling program which is going much better then the other programs that we've tried. We just began Math-U-See and the boys are both enjoying it quite a bit.

I've been looking into helping the boys with cognitive development. We think this may help with some of the underlying problems we've been having with their development. I've also looked (just a little) into biofeedback. Which is something a friend of ours told me about. Our insurance won't cover cognitive training but it may cover biofeedback. So it's an option that for now is on the back burner.

We've see tremendous improvement in their sleep patterns and some improvement on their concentration since they've been taking fish oil. My health has been better since as well. We ran out of fish oil last week and so did our provider. I see the downward turn from just a few days off of it. It's been a difficult week in terms of concentration. But still much better on the whole.

Still Micah struggles a bit. We're praying for guidance. If you are a praying person he could use some prayer.

Zboy and I have decided that it's time for him to learn to read. Two to three days a week we spend 15 to 30 minutes (I plan for 15 and he begs for more lol) at www.starfall.com learning the letter sounds. Once I'm sure that he has a strong grasp on the sounds (he's almost there) we'll move on to the blends. For now he's enjoying our time together. He's eager to learn to read like his big brothers. Josiah wonders what's taking him so long. LOL

And now I'm off to get a few hours sleep before our way to early O.T appointment. Have a great day.
