Today was very strange. We had plans to go to the Georgia Aquarium with my hubby's family. We were supposed to be there at 10 which meant we had to leave at 9. Leaving at 9 meant we had to wake the little guys up at 8 or so to get dressed, etc. We had already been out late spending time with B's family. Plus Owen was throwing up alot during the night. Owen was miserable all day long. I felt guilty for making him suffer through the Aquarium when he didn't feel good. Plus then we went out to eat with the family too. (We ate at 6 Feet Under it was DELICIOUS!!!!!) Poor Owen threw up all over the table. All he'd had was some sweet tea and not all that much either. So we go home, and his fever was 103!!!! Ugh poor kid. But how do you say to the other 2 boys and the rest of the family we have to stay home? They rarely get to see our boys, but.... its so hard to balance.
On the other hand, when I was at Subway getting some $5 footlongs for dinner, a lady in the restaurant told me what a good mom I was. How I was so patient with my boys. I was so touched, it brought tears to my eyes. I don't always feel so patient. My boys don't listen that great either....but it was great to hear though.
I'm feeling so sad that we're getting Grant ready to go to school. I can't believe he's that old already. He's only going to half day PreK but still. That's my baby. I remember him being so little when he was born and holding this tiny baby at the NICU in Emory Crawford Long. Back when he was only 4lbs!! I think though that he will really excel to have a much more stimulating structured environment and new adults to help him.
My Evan is getting big too. 3rd grade!!!! At least I know he's going to have a great teacher. He had Mrs. Underwood last year and she was great for him. I hope he has another good year. I wish his school had been able to get a new enrichment teacher though. The one from last year was very mediocre. (to put it nicely)
I don't know what I'm going to do when Owen starts school in April. We are supposed to do his IEP in December. I hope though that school will help him. He may start catching up to his peers a little.
I found the soccer ball buttons I was looking for for sweetslice's boy's scarf. \
More later.
