Chat to the Crowns, Part 14!

Russ is at his worst when he is with me, he really doesn't push it much when DH is here though. Not sure why but he is terrified of getting in trouble by DH. Its crazy bc DH has rarely punished him at all.

It's finally raining in STL!!!

We got hit with a ton last night. I loved the storms. Amazingly enough I didn't freak out thinking we'd have tornadoes too. I love my DH though, he felt the need to reassure me that he didn't expect any bc of x y and z.

That's great that you didn't freak out about tornadoes :)

Hi girls! Today was my day off but Dalton was so needy that I hardly got to get to the computer to read or post. He's very cranky, I don't know if he has another ear infection or if this teeth are finishing off or what the problem is. I feel like all I said today between the boys was "dont, stop, quit, and no"

Yay Amber Im glad you are strarting to feel a bit more at ease...:)

Amy I hope things get better at yours soon, I just saw your status...

Ive had a really good couple of days, feeling really postive about my job...Im working on emproving Mollys fine motor skills...She is wanting to feed herself, but her ability to grasp the spoon and hold it in a tight grasp isnt there...SOOOO Im feeling amazing to be able to help her improve....Its one thing to do it with your own children, but when you are also helping other children, its such a rewarding feeling!!! :)
She can pick things up fine and grasp bigger object like the wooden hammer of the peg board Andy made...But once you are at spoon/pencil she cant grasp, BUT REALLY WANTS TO....
So this weekend Im going to make some toys to help encourage her, both my boys are going to get A LOT out of them too....My training is REALLY starting to come in handy....:)
Its actually given me a want to go further!!!!....Im quite excited.....

Nat - that's so exciting! I miss the days when E was little and I was teaching him the little skills. Now, we're teaching him to read and add...much more difficult and not as fulfilling :(

I'm feeling very blah this morning. It's taken 2 cups of coffee to get me ready to work.

Kim I hope you start feeling better. I've been trying to work with Russ on his letters and reading but he is only interested in it when he wants to. Grr

I'm exhausted and really need a nap. TGIF! I have to try calling my atty again today. It's been a week and he still hasn't called me back.

That always upsets me...when I'm paying someone for a service, and they don't call me back. Hope you're able to get to talk to him today.

I really don't want to have to pay another retainer but I have a feeling I need a new lawyer.
