I think I did okay

I took Elliott and Emmett clothes shopping on Friday. I've always been a hands on Dad and been extremely involved in the day to day things with the kids. Shopping is relatively new for me. I took the boys to Sears and got Elliott three pairs of pants, three shirts and a jacket. Emmett got three pairs of pants, a jacket and I got a new pair of jeans. The total was just under $160.. Does that sound like a decent deal? If I got ripped off, don't tell me.. ☺

There is no way to completely eliminate the risk of a child with Autism from wandering or escaping the house. This is a widely accepted fact that keeps many of us up at night, there are things you can do to limit the risk of your child getting out of the house and wandering away.

Shipping the kids off tonight

The boys has a meds check this morning at their pediatrician. They were a bit of a handful but considering we were there for a total of two hours, I think they actually did quite awesome. ☺ Everything checks out with the boys and meds were refilled. Both Elliott and Emmett's idiopathic fevers were once again documented. There's nothing we can do about them but documentation is very important. As for the rest of the day, I have a few errands to run before the boys leave to spend the night at my parents house. If all goes as planned, we will have the first night off, since our trip to Florida. I think that's right. Either way, it's been forever and we desperately need it. For awhile now, at…

It was a hellacious day but filled with small blessings

Yesterday was a complete disaster but still managed to have some high points and things I'm grateful for. The day began like any other, with appointments to be at. This time it was the oral surgeon for Lizze. She needed to have two teeth pulled and this was simply supposed to be a consult, before scheduling the surgery. Lizze wanted to be sedated for the procedure and that needed to be scheduled. The address on the paperwork reflected an address about forty minutes away. We dropped the boys off at their Grandparents and hauled ass through rush hour traffic, making it there quite early. When our appointment time rolled around and the office was still closed, we figured something was wrong. Turns out there are two locations, one is about…

This is the current view from my front window Thought I would share my literal point of view right now. This is what I see as I look out my front window. Nothing spectacular but it's sometimes interesting to see life from someone else's perspective. ☺
