For those of you that have been following the Lost and Tired family’s story for awhile now, you’re probably familiar with the concern over Emmett’s regression lately. It hasn’t been anything extreme but enough that we are very aware that it’s happening. You may also recall that Gavin was about the same age when he began his steady decline into regression. Needless to say, Emmett experiencing this as well has us truly terrified. We have been seeing many behaviors resurfacing after he had moved past them. One of the most noticeable is potty time. Emmett will no longer goto the bathroom alone. This is a step backwards for us. Also, he’s back to taking all his clothes off, including his socks, before going to the bathroom. At least he’s still…

  I thought I would help you fill that shiny new android tablet you just got with some amazing apps. Below you will find a list of educational apps, all of which I have personally played with my own kids. These are all created by a company called Intellijoy. Intellijoy is the #1 developer of educational apps on the entire Google Play Store, and for good reason.  Every one of these apps will work fantastically on the highly recommended Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 (7.0) and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus.  Check out the extensive list below and click on the app title, located beneath each icon, for a direct link to the install button located on the Google Play Store. Please note that there are both paid and free versions of these apps. This gives you…

Elliott and Emmett have spent time with Gavin for the past three days.  To say that they are overstimulated would be an understatement. This is what happens every time the spend time with Gavin.  Emmett approached Lizze a few minutes ago and out of nowhere, told her,  "Mommy, I hate Gavin. His meltdowns make me feel scared." This is the second time that Emmett's said something like that, in the last few days.  I'm not really sure where he got that from, as we have never said that we hate Gavin, ever. It's really heartbreaking to here those words come out of my 4 year old Emmett John. This is definitely something that we are going to have to work with Dr. Patti on. Until then,we are just trying to…

Lizze and I officially ported out our numbers from Sprint to Tmobile. The experience has been night and day compared to what I have experienced with Sprint.  Granted, it's only been a day, the service is far better than that of Sprint. My average data speed is 8500kbps down and 2000kbps up. I can actually download apps and even check my email using the Tmobile network. My sales rep was absolutely amazing and even gave me free cases for our new phones.  Also, I had three defective Galaxy Note II's in a row.  The stylus caused the screens to go crazy. It would also leave ink without actually touching the screen. They took care of the problem and we tested a total of 4 devices before finding one that worked…

A word of advice to anyone out there that would mess with my kids, don't do it. While I would put you in the ground myself, I discovered last night that I they can be vindictive little boogers. Emmett was frustrated with Maggie because she was intimidating his kitten, Sam, with her presence. Honestly, Maggie wasn't doing anything but Emmett felt that he was defending his kitten. I let him do just that.  I like to see my kids stand up for themselves, it makes me feel better about their future. I don't know if that even makes sense? Anyway, I suggested that Emmett put Maggie in her kenel for a little while, so his kitten would be scared. He did just that.  He put Maggie in her kenel. Maggie…
