Been a minute....

I haven't really posted anything in awhile on here.  Just been busy living I guess.

Kids update:
Sami- is having a girl. I'm in MT right now visiting with her. It sux that she is so far away during this time and I won't get a lot of time with my grandchild. But, they are doing well here right now so I will just have to let her live her life. And still hope she comes home.

Dan- A few months out of the Army now and attending school full time. Right now he has all As.  He's attached to a National Guard unit here as well. His big news is that he's applied to and now passed the first two portions of the police academy applications process here in local big city. To his wife's dismay no baby news for them yet.

Emily- Had hip surgery due to bilateral hip dislocation common with CP no weight bearing children. She'll be in casts and using a wedge pillow immobilizer for the next six weeks. She'll probably be out of school the rest of the year.

David- Big boy three year old is doing well from his latest eye surgery. He's getting around very well and doing a lot more standing. We've submitted to insurance for a walker for him, do hopefully we get that soon. He should start homebased preschool soon, haven't heard back in that yet, but until he starts homebased and the teachers actually work with him 1:1 I will not allow him to attend the school based preschool here.

Semira- Miss sassy pants is coming along so much. Walking and talking so much more. She starts preschool in Aug. Developing at a consistent 1 year behind right now. But I think she will catch up pretty quick when she starts school. She hates working with therapy at home but she thrives when mimicking so I think when she's around her peers, more typical ones, she'll just catch in.

Mac- The baby is still very much a baby but he's coming along now too! He's playing with toys, reaching for people, he's almost stilling on his own, and is weight bearing on his feet and supporting his trunk in the exersaucer now. He has a long way to go still but it's progress.
