Yesterday,  which at Tuesday night therapy,  Elliott and Emmett put these little guys together.  I cannot for the life of me, remember the name of the game these things come from.  Anyway,  Elliott called his Bumblebee.  Emmett wanted everyone to know that his critters butt is soft and doesn't really sting,  so don't be scared. Too cute.  **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Autism Help Forum Look for "Autism Help" app at the Google Play Store This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung's Galaxy S III.

I thought I would share a picture of poor Ms. Bella Jane.  She is all wrapped up and looking extremely comfortable.?  Thankfully,  she's very sedated and not feeling much.  She'll be sedated for the next 10 days,  in order to allow her to recover.  We need to keep the bandages on for the next 4 or 5 days. That is of course,  if we can. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Autism Help Forum Look for "Autism Help" app at the Google Play Store This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung's Galaxy S III.

We see Dr.  Patti in just a little bit for our regular,  Tuesday night therapy session with the boys.  This is everyone's favorite day of the week cause they love seeing Dr.  Patti. Tonight we are going to focus on Gavin for some of the time and Elliott the rest. While Gavin is making better choices overall,  we are starting to notice some concerning behavior.  He's slipping back into some bad habits.  For example,  he is treating Lizze one way and me another.  He goes to great lengths to not let me witness what he says to Lizze.  I don't like that at all and neither does Lizze.  He seems to be a bit more scattered in his thoughts lately.  The other thing we noticed is that he is constantly…

Ms. Bella has just arrived home.  Emmett came outside but didn't realize that Bella was with me because he was distracted by Elliott and Gavin.  I walked Bella into the yard so she could go potty.  Emmett finally saw her and his eyes lit up and he came running down the steps into the yard.  He fell to the ground in front of her and wrapped his arms around her. This would have been a priceless photo, accept for the fact that she was pooping at the time.  :-) He just couldn't wait for her for finish.  It's safe to say that she is happy to be home and we are overjoyed to have her back.  It's amazing how you can sometimes not truly appreciate someone or something until they…

I'm so excited to share that Bella is indeed coming home this afternoon. I spoke with the vet's office this morning and she is doing really well.  Emmett is really excited to have her home,  as is the rest of us.  Maggie has been lost and heartbroken since we left with Bella yesterday and came home without her.  She's been sleeping in Bella's kenel during the day and just looks really sad.  Dogs don't have object permanence so when someone or something leaves,  they don't understand that someone or something can or will come back. She will be so happy to see her little friend.. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Autism Help Forum Look for "Autism Help" app at the Google Play Store…

Elliott and Gavin had therapy this afternoon. I've been running around like crazy all morning.  However,  we made it to Concorde Kids with time to spare. Elliott and Gavin both did really well.  Elliott was even patient while he waited his turn. After therapy finished up,  we left to pick up Ms. Bella for the vet.  I'll let you know how that went on another post. The boys really love going to Concorde Kids and really benefit from the therapy. **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Autism Help Forum Look for "Autism Help" app at the Google Play Store This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung's Galaxy S III.

Hey ya'll. I have been having some issues with comments syncing up with intense debate. This is why you will see that a post has 6 comments but when you go to read them, they are there. I haven't been able to figure this out and so I have decided to move back to LiveFyre. I really like the idea behind it. The only problem is that I can't respond to comments from the Wordpress app. That just means I have to put in a bit more face time with the actually site and not live vicariously through my phone. I know that not everyone likes change and I apologize if this has thrown anyone off. However, I think that it's important for comments to show up for all to read and this does…

I was wondering what you do when you feel completely overwhelmed by life,  parenting, bills or anything else? I tend to write,  as you are no doubt aware. I find that writing helps to center me and put things into perspective.  The other thing I do is walking.  I try really hard to walk every single day,  at least 3-5 miles.  Not only does this help improve my health but it's a physical exertion and that really helps to burn off stress and other negative energy.  What kids of thing do you do? **Thanks for reading**        -Lost and Tired Please join our Autism Help Forum Look for "Autism Help" app at the Google Play Store This was posted via WordPress for Android, courtesy of Samsung's Galaxy S…
