This has been a really long weekend and it's only Saturday...and Elliott and Gavin were at Grandma's last night. Emmett is just really struggling with many things right now. He essentially has no outlet as he is no longer in occupational therapy. We have had a great deal happening lately and I haven't really been able to get him out to the park to play. So he's very short tempered and much more aggressive than he has been in awhile. Since Elliott and Gavin have returned home a few hours ago,  it has been nonstop whining,  fighting and/or screaming.  It's enough to convince even the sanest and most grounded among us to hop aboard the train to crazyville.  If spring break was any indication of what summer break is going…

This is a picture of Emmett and I goofing around with the camera on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus.  He even applied the filters and frame.  Fun was had by all. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

I thought I would share this because it's pretty darn funny.  Bella had gotten into the dog food closet and got her head stuck in the dog biscuit box.  She kept running into the wall and falling over.  She wasn't getting hurt and it wasn't easy to catch her. I was totally cracking up...  Maggie was even trying to help her get the box off her head. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

While Gavin was receiving his 11th antibody infusion yesterday,  the nurses brought him a few presents.  One of these presents was a large Lego Transformer set. Gavin came home and got it put together and wanted you all to see it. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

While I wasn't present for this particular infusion,  Lizze tells me that Gavin did really,  really well.  He behaved well and his body tolerated the infusion itself quite well also. There was brief discussion of increasing the dose of IVIg. That is something for another post on another day. They also discussed whether or not we will continue the infusions through the summer.  Apparently, some parents choose to take a break during the summer.  However,  when the kids start up again,  the side effects can be pretty bad.  We will continue through the summer. Bottom line is that Gavin did great and we are really proud of him. There was something else that happened while Lizze and Gavin were at Akron Children's Hospital.  Lizze will be posting about that tonight.…

Yesterday was a really emotional and crazy day.  However,  there were really cute pictures of Emmett John taken.  I meant to share these yesterday but it escaped my slippery mind. :-P Anyway,  I wanted to share these because Emmett is just to friggin adorable. The last picture is my personal favorite. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Community Autism Support Forum Posted from WordPress for Android so please forgive any typos as auto-correct and I don't see eye to eye. :-)

As soon many of you out there can relate to, the Lost and Tired family never makes plans because life is a moving target.  We are constantly having to change and adjust because with 3 special needs boys and a disabled wife, something always seems to come up. Today has been no exception. Lizze was supposed to have PT this morning and my mom was going to hang out with Emmett. I was supposed to be at Akron Children's Hospital all day with Gavin as he received his 11th antibody infusion.  I think it's his 11th, they have all blurred together now.  When he was done we had to go straight to Dr.  Reynolds for an emergency psychiatric appointment.  However,  instead of that happening we had to change plans. Lizze…
