I'm a blog slacker

Whew, it's been a rough week. I truly enjoy the boys being home from school, but man are they exhausting. Combine that with our roof being replaced and no naps on top of having a massive sinus headache and it makes for some stressful days.

I went today and got Jon and Nate registered for school. Jon will be going into 4th grade and Nate into Kindergarten. I've never known a child to be as excited as Nate is about starting school. He asks me practically every day if he's going to school the next day. I feel a little bad about telling him he still has a little while to wait until school starts. Zach will be starting in an ESE (ASD) classroom at another school, I'm a bit nervous about that, but hope it will go smoothly. I definately need to take him to his open house so he gets to meet his teacher.

Zach is starting to talk a bit more which is so wonderful, it's great to hear him ask for things instead of just screaming until he gets his way. Hopefully he'll keep improving and his vocabulary will keep growing. I'm not expecting miracles, but every small step for him is a good one. I've found if I dont focus on the negative that goes along with his disability that I'm much less stressed out. Besides, it's nice just focusing on the positive, and dealing with the not so good things as they come.
