The picture would have been even better if Jeremy had one of those mustaches on too!

Your family is indeed beautiful and flowering, and that blue poppy (is that a Himalayan poppy?) is gorgeous.

The garden is turning out great! I love that picture of Connor and your hubby. They do have the same ears. Please more Connor's pictures, he is just too cute! Happy mother's day!

I'm going to have to disagree that being a boring white disk is better than being a turtle....

Hooray for the sleep and huge wishes for better sleep sooner rather than later.

I'm so excited for you! I've been following your blog for a while now and think I may have commented before, but if I did, it's been so long I don't remember.

Yay for the night nurse! Boo for not getting the turtle! lol

Really, though, what a great relief to finally get the nurse - I am SOOOO happy for you!

The monitor sounds almost Seussian in its diversity of uses. Maybe if you push the right button, little robot arms will come out of the sides and tidy up around the room. (In related news, Ben has just constructed a Star On machine on the floor of my study, for the benefit of a steady stream of imaginary Sneetches, although he claims it also makes thneeds.)

Chocolate can be ordered online, from the comfort of your home. Overnight delivery is pricey but in an emergency, you do what you have to do.

2012-05-03T18:07:35.514-07:00

You will be surprised on how quickly you adapt to having the nurse in the house overnight. My friend does that job and loves it. She really bonds with the kids and the families. I think you bond quickly because of the intimate nature of staying in the house overnight.

Sorry to hear that Sir Connor had a rough day. Be sure and give him a kiss for me.

I saw Jeremy & Connor leaving the parade. I wondered where you were. I've been meaning to contact you for ages. You were extremely helpful to me a couple years ago by sending me detailed information about school districts & areas to live before we PCSd here. Life has been hectic ever since as I teach SpEd full time while raising 2 kids etc. You jumped into my mind last summer when I was in my new dentists office for the first time, my husband was deployed and my phone rang! Luckily it was just a friend with bad timing! Anyway, it made my heart sing to see how easily Jer was walking and how big Connor was. It sounds like things are going well for you. Maybe we can find time for that cup of tea we emailed about so long ago before we move again this summer. :)

Great news!! If you're able to blog, take care of Connor, love Jer and fix up a chair with severe stapling issues, while being sleep deprived for years, II really wonder about what you will do now with some actual sleep, who knows? Have you considered rocket science? Or maybe flying a spaceship? So happy for you!

I was searching via Google for two toned wood signs and came across your blog. I know this was written 2 years ago but I couldn't read and go as it touched my heart strings. My father in law recently passed away from Mesothelioma and was on oxygen tanks. The stickers were horrible! I wish we thought of a nice sign like this.

not a special needs mom here- plain vanilla mom- so just wondering if putting big boy pants on in the morning and let him get *exceptionally* uncomfortable? Gross for you but maybe reinforce feeling yukky with going in underwear?

2012-04-24T10:01:28.481-07:00

Congratulations on the nurse & sweet dreams! Hopefully there won't be any staple guns in them.

2012-04-23T06:24:42.174-07:00

Your son cracks me up. Four hours!

Did he ever get into Signing Time? There's a new Potty Time DVD out - haven't bought it yet myself (well, not for me - for my girl) but I've heard good things. I know you usually avoid the TV but maybe it falls under the dual bribery/motivation category?

Good luck!
