Jack is excited that it’s getting hot since that means he can swim! Jack loves to be out with Daddy doing yard work, and gets out his little lawn mower and weed eater so he can “help”. So cute to watch him marching across the lawn with his little mower. He finished up his co-op class this month and was sorry that it was over. We went to a...

David has taken the changes in his life this month completely in stride. I was prepared for weeks of fussing about leaving the glasses on, and we ended up having no problems at all. Some have suggested that maybe it’s because he can actually see now, but we really couldn’t tell he was having problems seeing. He enjoyed looking at books, both with us and...

David’s eyes started looking funny to me about a month ago. After a couple of weeks of catching glimpses of his eyes not seeming to work together quite right, and hearing from my best friend that she had seen the same thing, we took him to the doctor.

He’s started to try and sing the ABC song and likes to look at letters and try and name them. He loves to be outside, playing in the sandbox or at a playground. Very recently, he’s started to enjoy watching videos and likes Blue’s...

This month we’ve finally gotten into a routine with regards to doing a little schoolwork each day, unless the Sillies get the better of us, which they are wont to do now and then. Jack is working through Handwriting Without Tears, and it’s been excellent so far.  I’ve noticed him reading Bob books during rest time just for fun, so am hoping...

Finally! We were able to take some of the gates down in our house this month! While David still gets into things, he’s lost the urge to destroy everything in his path and pull everything off of shelves and out of cabinets. We love being able to walk around the house without running into gates and David & Jack love to run around from living room, through...
