Last week, I took the kids pictures in front of the tree for Christmas. I am not overly excited at how they turned out. There were a few cute ones, but none that I love enough to want to frame them like . . .

Today I drove over to take Chris to the doctor. It was just a med check, but we have had issues with rage, anger, and violence over the past few weeks. We also wanted to discuss the possibility of Chris . . .

Chris started his new medication today. Most ADHD meds are a form of a stimulant, and they usually give him an upset belly for the first few days. This med is a twice a day med, but the second dose is . . .

Chris has always had a hard time making friends. In Kindergarten, his teacher secluded him because of his (at the time undiagnosed) adhd. Instead of telling us about his behaviour in class, his teacher . . .

Ever since Spring Break, Chris has been getting worse, and worse. Typically, when his meds stop working, it's not hugely drastic. It's noticeable, but the symptoms creep up before becoming uncontrollable. . . .

Chris is home. We drove over bright and early(ish) yesterday to pick him up. That's a long drive to make back and forth. Nick's family has never been interested in meeting halfway, where as my family . . .

Well, without us knowing it, we were talking with a psychologist for the entire time we were there, not a psychiatrist, like I requested. Apparently, all initial visits go through a psychologist, then . . .

Today I had to go into Lansing to get some car stuff done. While I was getting insurance, the school called- Gilly forgot her shoes at home, and has gym today, so I needed to bring those by. No problem, . . .

The Turkey is in the oven- oh, I can't wait! In the mean time, we have fried potatoes on the stove, and bacon on the griddle. It smells very nice in here.
The kids were up way too early- we . . .

I've been busy on the phone and net today, trying to find what needs to be done. Chris has an appointment next week with the psychiatrist. The first visit is a "therapy" visit, and then . . .

I'm cold, it snowed, and I have zero interest in walking Gillian down to school in 20 minutes. I'm so ready for the weekend to arrive. Chris is up, he's had his second dose of medicine & . . .

These are all pictures taken over the past few summers, not from this summer. They are some of my favorite ones of the kids.

The school just called. Chris is in the office, and can't catch his breath because he's coughing so bad. I am going to go grab him, and probably take him back to the doctor's office. After . . .

Chris does still have croup. When most kids are exposed to Croup, they come down with cold like symptoms. Most kids never show the typical barking cough sign of croup when they have it, so it's often . . .

Around noon, we were cleaning up the house, and yard, when the storm clouds rolled in. We had been planning to take the kids to Dairy Queen for helping, but the clouds made it apparent that we'd probably . . .

Last night, Gilly woke us up by tossing her cookies in bed with us. Joy! I wound up staying up till almost 8am with her, making sure she didn't start throwing up while she was still asleep. When she had . . .

Yesterday, we took the kids to the local Cider Mill, which also has a large pumpkin patch, apple picking, a petting farm, corn maze, haunted mill, and more. It was sunny, but cold yesterday, so we didn't . . .

Well, it's that time again. Chris has been on his current medications for about 3 months now. Lately, it's been calls every other day, or the teacher talking to me after class about what he did. . . .

The alarm went off at a shockingly early 6:30am, and I stumbled out of bed long enough to get my older daughter up and around. She eats breakfast at school now, and has her backpack packed up at night, . . .

Last of all, here is Chris's room. I didn't do much to his room- this is almost entirely Nick's doing. To me, it looks the least 'polished' of all the rooms, but Chris loves it.
