Busy, busy.....
March has been a busy month for us!
We are getting things put together at the new house. No, we haven't moved yet. We have moved pretty much all but the are essentials to the other house! We have been weeding stuff out,but we STILL have too much IMHO. We were finally able to afford the painter to paint all of the basement level. Now we can start working on getting things put away. Christopher's home school room looks like a tornado hit it. :) Still trying to figure out the best way to organize it. That will probably change any number of times before we figure it out. We want to try to have as much done as we can, and as many things put in their place before we move in for real. We had two weeks to pack an entire house the last time, and be out on Christmas Eve! We are still unpacking boxes from THAT move. We won't ever do that again.
We showed the house 3 times in one weekend at the end of Feb/beginning of March. We have had nothing since. I believe we are going to try for a different agent and see what happens.
Christopher was doing really well in therapy for awhile. Suddenly, he started getting puny on us. And by puny, I mean our poor PT was trying to hold up a wet noodle! He had lost more weight too. So, we talked to our ped and ended up checking him into the hospital a couple of weeks ago for Failure to Thrive. I won't go into all the details here, but it was not a very impressive stay this time around. However, the GI decided to REDUCE the number of calories in his diet. He was on 4800 calories per day when we checked him in, and losing wight. So far, it seems to be working! I don't know if he has gained any weight yet, but he is MUCH perkier and happy.
I went into his room today to get him out of bed, and found him at the other end of his bed, turned around, and he had thrown ALL of his stuffed animals out or to the head of the bed. He clapped & said "Did dat!" Ha!Ha!
That is about it on the updates for now. I will try to get more pictures on here. He is having a serious camera phobia right now. He turns away as soon as he sees anything that resembles a camera pointed in his direction!
Hugs!~
