Dancing In The Rain! (Day 227 of 365)

Sunday, October 17th, 2010

Currently, as I am writing this…I am sitting on my couch with Taylor at my side. She just had a small seizure and after I gave her some diastat (this is the medicine that stops her seizures). She is now sound asleep, which is a great thing! Now, in my brain I am doing my best to figure out what to do with her tomorrow. She will have to stay home from school. When Erin has a siezure she is much more resilient…where as Taylor seems to be knocked on her feet for a day or two. I’m just glad this wasn’t a big one and she is resting now.

Mom & Son Night! (Day 326 of 365)

Saturday, October 16th 2010

Today started at 8am…when I jumped out of my bed to realize that I overslept. I ran out of bed to meet The Physical Therapist at the door. She came over to work with the girls.

I should just end it there with a period and you should get some type of idea how Taylor did.

Thursday, October 14th 2010

The header says it all! Have you ever had one of those days?

Overall, the kiddos are pretty healthy, no seizures for awhile, and so far colds have stayed away from them…so I choose not to call it a bad day. It is just ONE of THOSE days. Does this make sense?

A Family Competition in Utah (Day 323 of 365)

Wednesday, October 13th 2010

Cerebral palsy or no cerebral palsy! Us Littles are competitive!!! I knew I was competitive…but I didn’t realize how much I had passed it on to my children. When we were in Utah over the weekend, my family and I (& Jase) played a few games of air hockey with the family who runs the place where we stayed called The Summit Chateau Lodge in Brian Head, Utah. I was able to capture the moment on video and thought you would enjoy. I’m sure you will enjoy a few laughs while you are at it….
