Here is whats new!

So much has happened since my last post.

• I am finally feeling like my old self after my surgery. It took almost 3 months for me to back though. I still am dealing with a few things health wise but I am hoping after this Thursday I will be in the clear for a while. I have my last MRI scheduled for July 29th(one day before our anniversary)! It has all been very stressful and scary so I am doing everything my doctor says and I am hoping that I will be 100% by October.
• Michael was really sick at the end of May. I was really worried. He ended up having pneumonia! the poor kid was miserable. He is doing much better but is still not sleeping well. I am going to order him a weighted blanket as soon as we have a little extra cash and see if it helps him. http://www.mosaicweightedblankets.com/ Both OT doctors have suggested them. So we will give them a try.
• I finally got Michael cleared for speech therapy! Of course Kaiser sourced it out to an other company and it is located downtown San Jose! http://thriveautismcenter.com/ He starts tomorrow morning and I can't wait. He is starting to copy us more but does not say to many spontaneous words other than OUT, KITTY, HI & BYE(which sound the same) and Doggy. He is slowly signing more words though still not a lot spontaneously but he has more signed words than the spoken words!! The doctor who did his speech evaluation also put in a referral for him to see a developmental pediatrician. She was concerned about a few things. He is also going to be evaluated for autism.  Which I am surprised by because Michael is so social. But any help at this point I will take.
• It is getting harder for me to take him places other than the park or grandmas though. Which is hard on me because I love visiting people. I have a very hard time getting anyone to come to our house they always want me to come to them and I am not sure how to tell them that its hard on Michael. I also never know what his mood is going to be like either. I normally could tell that this is going to be a bad day but now it seems to go back and forth throughout the day. he is also very physical and for adults that's kind of okay but other kids don't understand that he is playing and he also ends up hurting them.
• Kaylee had her last day of Preschool. She did great this year and I can not wait to see how much she will grow in the next year. She is on the waiting list for a Jr. Preschool right by our house and she is the 2nd on the list so we are hopeful that she will get in.
• Work/Babysitting for Payton has been getting hard for me because of all of the stuff I do for Michael and I am trying so hard to keep him on a routine. I asked them to start picking her up from my house but I think it is to far for them. In August when Kaylee starts school I am going to have to start looking for a new job. I am not sure how that is going to work with all of the stuff going on right now but we will see. Ken has been looking for a new job as well. He said he was even willing to work a second job so I can just not work but we will see. I just can't imagine not seeing Payton anymore though it is going to be a big adjustment for me.
• Ken and I have scheduled a few things to look forward to in the next few months! The big thing is that in October we are going to take Kaylee to Disneyland for the first time and hopefully leave Michael at home with many people to care for him while we are away. Kaylee has been amazing with all the stuff that goes on with Michael and we really want to be able to do something that she wants to do. Then in July its out anniversary and last year we were unable to do anything because Michael was sick and grandma had her stroke so this year we are going to do something and I can't wait.
