Mackenzie's therapy

Mackenzie is only going to have therapy a couple times through the month of June. It's summer break of course.

We got some good and bad news today during her individual therapy this morning. First the bad news; Meghan, Mackenzie's speech pathologist may be moving to California. We have been very lucky to get Meghan. She's great with Mackenzie and Mackenzie just loves her so much. It will be very sad if she does end up going. The good news; Mackenzie may not need therapy once she's finished with early on around her birthday!!! She's doing so well now!

On another note, Cameron has hip displasia in his right hip. We see the specialist on the 18th of June. Hopefully that won't be really invasive. I'm hoping for no surgery.

Other than the kids news life has been as normal as usual. I've been working and I'm finally getting it all figured out.

Kids are crying. I must stop now

Mothers Day and Craziness

It has been total craziness around here. I've been so busy with the new job at the post office and all of the normal day to day lately.

I'm so glad Marty has been home to watch the kids so that I am able to go to work. Last week I worked everyday except Thursday. Monday and Tuesday I had orientation. Wednesday, Friday and Saturday I was at work at 6:30 am. I wake up at 5:10 on days I have to work. I'm not a morning person and it makes for some long days. Saturday I had to go back into work at 2:30 pm to get everything ready to be picked up. It's funny because I don't mind getting up early for work because I actually really like my job.

Sunday was Mothers day. The kiddos let me sleep in a bit. They also got me a new purse and dress for mothers day. Dad and Carol got the kids pics taken for us for mothers and fathers day but then they surprised me with a book with the kids pictures. It's absolutely beautiful.

Monday it was back to work for me. When I got home we all went outside to play. Marty was working on one of his cars, so I decided to help. I'm glad I still had my clothes on from work because I got even more dirty. I had my Mary Kay meeting last night so Marty and the kids went to his moms house. I was so tired I had a cup of coffee at 6 pm and had fallen asleep on the couch around 10.

Today both of the kids had therapy. Mackenzie did great but Cameron was not a happy camper and cried the whole time. After nap time we're planning on going to the park to play for a bit.

I have to go to work again tomorrow morning and Marty goes back tomorrow night.

Thursday we have swimming with therapy group. Both of the kids love that. We go to the Allegan high school and use their leisure pool for an hour.

Friday I'm hoping will be a relaxing day for us. So far we have no plans.

Saturday is back to work 2 times for me and Sunday is the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure. It's just me going this year. Usually I sign the kids up but decided not to since we have the apraxia walk next month that we're all walking.

Monday I have to work again. I won't be going to my Mary Kay meeting next week because I have a preschool readiness webinar put on by the apraxia foundation at the same time as my meeting.

Time to get the kids down for naps then going to the park!
