Yesterday was a rough one. Emmett wasn't feeling well last night and neither was I. Emmett's dealing with an upper respiratory thing and mine may just be allergies.  Anyway, turns out we don't have an appointment for Gavin today because the doctors office is closed for Labor Day.  This is a bit weird because I definitely have it on the calendar for today and I don't normally make that kind of mistake.  This leaves us with a whole lot of nothing to do and that fits just right. Emmett seems to be feeling a little better right now but you can tell that he's still under the weather and I'm nursing a sinus headache. Nothing on the schedule has worked out well.    

If the next week or so doesn't kill me, it's gonna definitely make me stronger. Gavin's supposed to be at the immunologist in the morning but I need to reschedule because both Emmett and I are now sick. This works out for the best because it well over an hour and twenty minutes away and Gavin can't make it five minutes in the car without stopping to pee. Emmett's absolutely miserable and that makes life even harder for him.. This isn't a good week to be sick because I have 3 IEP meetings, at least half a dozen appointments and a trip to Akron Children's Hospital for Emmett.  I'll finish this post up tomorrow because my head is pounding and the boys are sleeping. I'm gonna crash...   

While I'm running on fumes, we are off to a great start this morning. Emmett finally fell asleep around 2 am and I was out soon after. Despite the general lack of sleep in the house, everyone is in a good mood and getting along.  Sometimes when the boys don't get enough sleep, the can become more easily overwhelmed by the world around them. Sensory issues become more prominent and the meltdowns are abundant. This morning however, the boys are holding their own and that's pretty awesome.....  ❤️❤️❤️❤️
