Busy Week

We've had a really busy week here. I had a mock code for work that I had to go in for. Sarah watched the kids for me so Mike didn't have to take off work. Thanks again, Sarah!

Ethan had a speech session and he did really well. He was talking a lot and did everything Laura asked. I love these kinds of sessions!

The people from Birth to 3 came to re-evaluate Ethan to see if he still needs therapy. He barely cooperated with them. Ethan is really shy around people he doesn't know. It takes him a long time to warm up to people. It's frustrating! He wouldn't talk out loud and wouldn't do the things they asked. Stinker! He scored just a little over what he should. She changed his score a little bit so he would qualify. She is afraid that if we stop therapy, he'll regress. They also said Ethan would benefit from going to preschool because he's so shy with strangers. They're going to see if both Ethan and Mia will qualify for preschool. It would be Monday thru Thursday from 8am to 11am. I'm not crazy about the time! They also tried to evaluate Mia but she wouldn't even look at them! They're going to see if Laura will start working with her as well because she isn't talking as much as she used to.

Mike had a football party last night. His team, the Dolphins, played his friends' team, the Bears. We made some chili and other munchies. The kids had a blast playing with our friends' son. They were pretty worn out by the end of the night.

I have to work tonight, so the kids get some Dad time. Our 7th wedding anniversary is Monday. Mike's parents are going to watch the kids for us while we go out and celebrate. I'm not quite sure what we're going to do but it'll be fun to have some time alone. I think we're going to get an oven for our anniversary. Yeah, I know, sounds really romantic!
