Our busyness is kind of doing my head in at the moment. On top of all of our regular activities, this week we've had appointments with the dentist, chiropractor, dietitian, podiatrist, OT, and GP. All I am doing is driving, listening, driving, listening, driving, listening. Then trying to put everything into practice at home. It is hard work, on all of us!
This past weekend I took the kids over to my friend Andrea's place. They are pet-sitting a snake, so the kids had a play with the snake, which they loved. Then Carmie and Jaida, Andrea's 14 year old daughter, caught the bus together to go to the mall. It was Carmie's first trip like that, and she was nervous and excited. They shopped and had a snack at the mall, then caught the bus home again. In the meantime, Arley did a little fishing with Chayse, but then decided to walk himself home because he wasn't catching any fish. Both kids are showing so much independence, it's great, although I do wish that Arley hadn't walked home alone. It was only two blocks, but I did think he was still at the park! Carmie is very proud of herself for her mall trip, and so I am. It is a pretty big deal for a kid with anxiety to do all that on her own. :)
Somehow I have injured my hip flexor, and I've been limping around all week. I was unable to do Taekwon Do, but I still got the kids there. Also to horse riding. After Taekwon Do on Thursday Carms and I drove out to Dulong and stopped at the lookout there. It is the most amazing view! Also, this week Arley received his gift basket that he earned from getting 10 new foods into his diet. Ten foods! This is so huge, I can't tell you. He eats pancakes now, and spaghetti! He still won't touch anything wet, or eat fruit or vegetables, but we are on our way :)
There's not much more to add. I am just hoping that next week is a little less busy!
