"A fallen leaf is nothing more than summer's wave goodbye..." We sure do have a hard time letting go of summer around here. Summer is just in our blood! But, it's probably time for us to let go of summer and move into fall!
The kids started Kindergarten in September and had a much easier time adjusting then I did! I was very worried about them being in separate classes but the two of them didn't skip a beat! It has been fun listening to J and C chat with each other about their day when they get home. They have been learning so much and really enjoy going!
Jackson started fall baseball in September! My dad is his coach which has been super neat! Charlie Claire has been a busy bee with vision therapy and occupational therapy (twice a week) and being on a swim team. Our days seem to revolve around "homework" from therapy and shuffling people around from one activity to the next.
C has been having some new seizure activity going on. C likes to call them "ariel" instead of a seizure. They appear to be relatively minor and are very quick. She had a really good check up with the neuro in September where we discussed these little "episodes." We added back in a second medication to see if that would help. So far we have not seen an improvement. C had blood work done about 2 weeks ago to check her med level and all was in a therapeutic range. At this point Dr. M would like to take a closer look at what is going on. C is scheduled to go in the Epilepsy Monitoring Unit on Tuesday for a 2-3 day EEG. She is having a decent amount of these episodes daily so our hope is that they can collect the data they need in 24 hours instead of needing to stay in for 3 days.
Jones is getting super big and he is very busy! How is it possible that he will be a year old next month?!!! He LOVES the big kids, getting into everything, playing outside, eating and remote controls!
Here is a major photo dump from the last few months!
