Busy, Busy Busy

It's been pretty busy so I haven't posted in a while. Here are some updates as to what's going on.

First, Jamie's still doing well and jabbering, making noises.

My FIL is doing better, however, in order to save his life, he had to have an above the knee amputation of one of his legs. But he's in Rehab now, and will be finally coming home soon. He is still in good spirits.

My Mom and dad have been having marital problems for a long time, but they might be separating in the next little while for good. As you can imagine, this is a really hard time for my family and also for my brother and sisters.

Oh one story about Jamie, We were trying out this new casserole dish, and I had put the casserole dish on the table (for dinner) and he must have touched it. I had seen him holding his other hand. I got him to the sink and was running water over his hands. I asked him, "Does that feel better?" and I swear I heard Jamie say, "NNNNOOOOOO!" We both cracked up laughing.
Hopefully this will start a language spurt.. but we're not sure. We think Jamie's taking his sweet time talking.
Trey is still going to school and is doing well.

I will need to post a LOT of pictures to make up for not posting them..

More updates coming soon.

Family Updates

There has been a lot of news lately so I'll fill you in.

Me and Trey got our own car back after being repaired. That was this past weekend. Woohoo! :D

Trey's father has been in the hospital fighting a bad infection. He is doing well and will come home soon. That is encouraging. He seems to be in good spirits which is great!

Jamie has had another couple sessions, both with the Occupational Therapist (OT) and the Speech Therapist (ST). The Speech therapist was trying to scare us into thinking Jamie had autism.. but me and Trey have done extensive research on it, and I believe he doesn't have it. The speech therapist has not said a thing since. Jamie and I both like the therapists that are working with Jamie.

It's frustrating sometimes to not know what he needs sometimes, but he's a fun kid. He does a lot of jabbering and babbling, so I know he's close. He also knows how to make his needs known through his actions, which help a lot.

I don't have any pictures to post, but I will soon. :D

I will post more soon..
