Thank God his supplies showed up

I mentioned yesterday that Gavin's IVIG infusion supplies hadn't showed up. Thankfully, they arrived yesterday, right before the boys left for their Grandparents house.  I showed Gavin how to make sure that he received everything he was supposed to by going over the supply list, and checking things off.  Gavin did an awesome job accounting for everything.  Unfortunately, by the time the supplies did arrive, we had run out of time to do his infusion before he left. We'll be taking care of this as soon as he gets home from his grandparents house..

Hello smidgen of normalcy

I'm feeling a little better and we've decided to go to a movie. We haven't been to a late night movie since Harry Potter... Lizze made me take her to each movie at midnight, on opening day. ☺  Anyway, this is rather spontaneous and really out of character for us. For that reason alone, I think this is a great idea..  Hello smidgen of normalcy..  ☺

At least until I feel better

Lizze's appointment went well and we grabbed some Chipotle on the way home. Unfortunately, said Chipotle is not sitting well at the moment.  It looks like it will be a quiet night on the couch, at least until I feel better.

She’s in a shitload of pain

The boys are officially gone and we are t-minus one hour until Lizze has to be at the doctors. They'll be gone until sometime tomorrow. I'm feeling a bit more energized own after hitting the treadmill for a bit.  I'm not sure what we're going to do tonight, because Lizze is still in a shitload of pain from the weather.  Maybe we'll pickup dinner and work on season 3 of iZombie.  Simply not having to worry about the boys is a huge, albeit temporary relief. ☺

Lizze isn’t doing so good

Lizze is definitely under the weather today because of the weather today. It's on and off storms, making life very painful for her to endure.  I'm hoping that she's feeling better as the day goes on, and after a long nap. It would be really nice for her and I to be able to do something, besides sleep, while the boys are gone.  If she's not feeling better, than the goal will be to make her as comfortable as possible, and maybe bring her dinner... ☺

As an #Autism parent, I never take these for granted 

It turns out that we're looking at another break today, and that's amazing. The boys will be going to Lizze's parents for the night, and we will get some time to ourselves.  This has been an unusual week in the sense that we're getting so much time off, but it's an absolute blessing.  Lizze and I have zero plans at this point, but that may or may not change. I'd really like to go for a nice long walk, but the weather is rather hit or miss today. We have storms in the forecast, and we'll have to see how things go.  The bottom line is this. We are incredibly grateful for the time off provided by both sides of our family. I know that not everyone gets breaks like…

Optimistic about today

I'm super grateful that Elliott is still sleeping at 8:10 am. He's not been sleeping well for the last week or so, and he needs whatever sleep he can get.  I'd love to see him sleep in past 10 am if possible.  Emmett has already been up for awhile, as has Gavin. I woke about 7 am and I'm feeling tired but optimistic about today.

Serves me right

I feel asleep on the couch this evening while Lizze was puting the kids down for the night. I've been so exhausted, I just passed out when things slowed down.  Unfortunately, it's now midnight and I'm not able to fall asleep. This sucks.. O_o
