Wish I could post their beautiful faces...




OK....so this was the beautiful birthday cake I made...it was suppose to be a castle with draw bridges but Sabrina saw this carousel and wanted it instead....except the cake pans I had were too small in diameter and definitely did not fit the size of the carousel....oh well....

Want another....




Kelly going down the slide....sorry it took so long to post...this was Easter...

One more time....




Beautiful cows from Hershey PA.. and Chocolate World

pictures...if I can...




Kelly gazing off and thinking....Mom....that's not my face....I'm over here now....

Shame on me....

I haven't blogged in three months....shame shame on me...sorry for any one who really cares...
I would blog more often if I could post pictures of my beautiful girls but I promised Lief I wouldn't. It would definitely be more interesting if I could...I will post an occassional back or side view...he can't get too mad at that.

Kelly was seen by a new Pediatric Neurodevelopmental Dr....and whereas there was nothing new to add....she did suggest Kelly see a Pediatric Physiatry...a doctor of physical therapy I guess. That doctor can suggest adaptive equipment, chairs etc that Kelly might benefit from. I've only had her get PT through early intervention since she's been 9 months old and now through school. I never knew there was a medical doctor in that field and now one ever suggested I go. I think will continue to see the new neurodevelopmental dr too since she made the suggestion. Kelly sees so many doctors but I will change if I don't get that "warm fuzzy" feeling that Kelly really matters to the dr or if the dr isn't very proactive. The last neuro was too laid back...after we got the Rett diagnosis she sent me printouts from the internet that I had alreay read, nothing very positive so we moved on.

School is out at least for a while. Sabrina will have a few summer classes at the local school for arts and crafts and they have a playground for outside playing with her friends. and she starts swim lesson Saturday. Kelly is off of school for three weeks. We're going to Long Beach Island for three days next week...can't wait. She'll have summer school from July 8th through Aug. 15th and then off for another three weeks until next semester starts Sept. 4th ???? She's also having a few swim lessons from on OT in July.

almost forgot...kelly did #2 on the potty three times last week and #1 once.....woooo hooo.....
We're waiting for approval on a wheelchair/ stroller for Kelly. Hopefully it'll be approved soon.

Well, gotta go...blog ya' later.....

Time flies

Wow its almost a month since my last blog...wait it is exactly a month. shame on me.
Not a lot to report. The girls loved going on easter egg hunts this weekend. and Kelly climbed up and slide down the ladder at our little community park. Daddy was so proud. She kept going and going like a little energizer bunny.

Next weekend I'm going to meet a whole bunch of families living in Rettland. Thats where we all live now that one of our angels has Rett Syndrome. There is a retreat at a NJ hotel and we can stay over or not and meet and greet and try to relax. Well at least I'll meet and greet. Relaxing will be for the following weekend when myself and a few girls are going to Hershey PA for the night and soak up a little chocolate relaxation.

Wow, this is really sounding boring and I need to get to sleep before Kelly decides she doesn't want to. I'll try to write again when things are a bit more interesting.

Hi again

Sorry no postings in a while except that I have a potential staph infection on my right forearm...going to the doctor every other day for a week now. No need for details...its pretty gross anyways. so the arm thing has me not doing too much. I have to float my arm over the computer to type as I can't rest the arm down so I haven't been on the computer much.

Kelly, my Rett angel is doing awesome...saying Mama everywhere and she did the sign for horse at school two times...asking for Yankee Doodle dandy song. yeah....
Sabrina is being an angel too. Behaving for the most part....

they both loved playing in the snow too.
Post again soon.
