Check out Emmett’s new glasses
I wanted to share a picture of Emmett and his new nerd glasses. He's so stinking adorable and he loves his new glasses.

The boys got home about 4 hours ago. They were visiting their Mom and from the sounds of it, things went pretty well. The boys are decompressing still and have been pretty moody this afternoon. There has been some fighting between the E's and it's not been a super pleasant afternoon. Elliott's crying at the drop of the hat and Emmett's melting down over everything. These guys seem to have had a good visit but they are still struggling a bit with the transition home. Gavin's been talking nonstop about video games and has been extremely impulsive. That's not all that uncommon for him but his impulsiveness has been causing some minor upsets in our house this afternoon. He's trying and that's what I'm focusing on... Maybe we'll…
The boys are in their way home and before they even walk into the house, I'm going to stick them in the car. Emmett's new glasses are finally ready and rather than have him ask me a billion times, I figured we will just head straight there the moment they arrive home. I'm hoping this will set the tone for the weekend and he will be able to ride the high of getting his new glasses until Monday morning. 😎
I had this really nice post all planned out. The boys are at their Moms until noon on Saturday and the house is quiet as a result. Rather than use this time to relax, I can't stop thinking about Maggie. She goes in for surgery next Thursday to remove a tumor that has the vet very concerned. I haven't said anything to the boys yet and I'm not sure when I will. I'll only be able to hide this from them for so long because they will have to go with me to drop her off for the surgery. They'll see the stitches and the fact that Maggie will have on the cone of shame for a few days. I can't help but worry about everything because if this…
This was broadcast earlier this morning on Periscope. You can follow me on Periscope and catch my love broadcasts at @the_autism_dad. The videos remain their for 24 hours before they are automatically removed. You can catch replays by visiting my Videos page. Here's Gavin reading chapter one and two of his new book, A Journey To Another Universe. ❤️❤️😀😀👍👍 http://youtu.be/p0pf_1zX5l8
Just got back from the vet with Maggie and it's not very good news. On the positive side, the lump on her chest is just a fatty cyst and is of no concern. The lum on her right leg is a different story all together. The bet said that it's hard like a rock, attached to somethings internally and growing rapidly. She explained that it needs removed right away. Right away turns out to be next Thursday morning. They will put her under the knife in the morning and remove the tumor. Once removed, they will decide if it's going to need a biopsy or not. If it does need a biopsy, they will let me know and I'll need to approve the additional cost. Gavin went with me…
Our dog Maggie goes in to see the vet in about 30 minutes because she's got a growth on her leg. This thing on her leg is getting larger and it feels like a rock under her skin. I know the rule of thumb is that if it's soft and squishy it's likely okay. What she has on her leg is most definitely not soft or squishy. She does have one on her chest as well and that's more soft and squishy. I want to do this without the boys because worrying about something like this is the last thing they need to carry around with them. Please keep Maggie in your thoughts as I will get some idea of what we're possibly dealing with in the next hour or…
It's the end of yet another week and I'm ready for it to be over. The boys went off to school relatively easily and I'll be getting my walk in this morning, although I don't even come close to feeling up to it. I didn't sleep well last night and so I'm really dragging this morning. My goal is to really push through the next 3.1 miles and gain some much needed energy to finish the rest of the day with. 😀
