Hi everyone,
We took the boys to the Dells over the July 4th weekend to the Kalahari resort. It was amazing!! The boys loved it there and so did Mikey and I and my parents! Kale did great the entire weekend! But hey..water is his thing! We did the best we could to keep him on his meds and on his diet, but the diet was impossible at times. The child got to eat pizza and he was in heaven!!! We saw no real behavior problems from the diet infractions so that is a good sign. That tells us that his body is healthier and able to break down those proteins better. However, it does not mean that he can just eat these foods all the time again. Afraid we are back on the diet as of today!
Also, I found out that he had a good morning at school today also! My friend (who is in his ESY class with another student) told me that she heard him say, "wanna go home!". That is hysterical!! You have to be listening closely to Kale at all times, because there are times that words will just pop out!
He wanted a popcicle again last night and I again asked him what color he wanted and he responded with, "Blue" again so that is great! Sometimes Kale will say a word but you never hear it again. Glad to see that "Blue" seems to be sticking.
He had therapy today. He did great for OT and Ok for Becky with Speech. He was tired. It was a long day for him today! Summer school, then target, then two hours of therapy in Mokena! So, his last day of ESY is tomorrow. I am looking forward to some sleepin in for the remainder of the summer! I think he is as well!!!
Well, back to the norm. The vacation was worth every penny and it was so important for us to take since Mikey will be working so much from now until December!
Onto the potty training.....my next project!! Wish me luck!
Love,
Me

I'm glad you guys had a good time! It sounds like Kale is reacting well to the new protocol:-) I'm glad today is the last day of summer school too. Lily has enjoyed it but I'm just tired of rushing her through breakfast every morning to get her on the bus! I'm so glad she had Erin though...please let her know how much I appreciated her help with Lily. She was awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to put her in the therapy group at Westside Children's therapy starting next week. Are you going to put Kale in it?
We need to get the kids together soon. Maybe one day next week we can put up the water slide...this weather just sux for summer!
Good luck with the potty training! I know Kale can do it!!!!!!
love,
