Update

Well I went on tours for 3 preschools for Carter, and we have decided that Renfrew Educational is the school we are going with. I was very happy with the knowledge the staff had. It was clean, organized, and over all.. amazing. I think Carter is going to have a blast there. I found out a few days ago that Carter is approved for PUFF funding, (in other words the GOV will pay for preschool because Carter is so delayed). All I pay is the registration fee & snack fee. I wish he could start going now. I try with him, but honestly I have no idea how to get him to speak or interact better. I constantly hear myself repeating things over and over. Sometimes he will say it back, but usually I am met with screams of grunts. He is growing up so fast though. He is a very large 2 1/2 yr old. Last time he was weighed, he was 38 pounds. I have a hard time holding onto him. I saw a picture of him and I, and I couldn't believe that he was longer then way over half of my height. My first baby is growing up.

Logan is still my star. He is getting big so fast!! He can half roll over now. In a couple of weeks I know he'll get onto his belly. He LOVES sitting up. If he is lying down, he'll pull his head up as hard as he can and try to sit up. I was burping him yesterday and I realized that I wasn't even hanging on to him. I pull my hands away and he was supporting himself in a sitting position.

I want a house so bad... or a bigger place. But we have decided to stay here and pay off as many things as we can before I go off of Mat leave. bah. I hung up more pictures the other day. If were going to be here for awhile I want it to feel as much like 'home' as possible. Which is does now, has my touch. hehe

So i have been wanting to post all the projects i've been working on. But we are sick. Lovely flu. But the reason I am posting... Erica started rolling over yesterday! I could barley drag myself out of bed, but then i was greeted with this. She looks SO proud of herself when she does it too. Shes been trying since she was 2 months old. So I was wondering when she would get all the way. Shes 5 months in a week or so. She would only do it when you weren't looking. But now shes going crazy! She gets on her belly and tries to push with her feet. SO CUTE!!  She wont stay on her back anymore. Then when she rolls over she stares you down until you praise her. This is this morning. She is an old pro now.

Blogging it because I cannot talk about it.

Cam and I have told people more then once, "Carter is suspect Autism Spectrum Disorder". But after so many months of waiting, and having a specialist sit you down and say  "After observing you son, we firmly believe that he has Autism".   I now realize that I was not prepared to deal with the fact that Carter has Autisum.  I was, and still am, Devastated.  After the specialist told us of her conclusions she then asked , "Now after hearing that, how are you feeling? Are ok? Do you have questions? Can I help?" Honestly I thought I was fine. "We knew this was coming" I said. "I'm fine". Cams answer was the same. After she said "Yes, but sometimes having it confirmed makes it sink in, and you don't react how you thought you would". She was right. As soon as she said that I looked deeper and I knew I was ready to burst into tears. I wanted her out of my house and NOW. I knew Cam was dealing with his own feelings, so I h...

Kids Calenders

So I feel like I am doing A LOT of projects lately. It has been wonderful. I feel as if the "I just had a baby" haze is slowly lifting and I am feeling (sort of) human again. My first project was 'Cams Christmas Countdown' . There are more to come! This one is more of an on going project. But I loved the idea so much that I decided to share. I was at a friends house awhile ago, and I notice her wall was covered in Calenders. I of course asked her why. She told me that she doesn't have time to keep journals for all her kids, so she buys them their own calender every year, and keeps all of their appointments, play dates, birthdays... anything thing to do with that child on their calender. So when they get older, they can go through them and see what they did growing up. FANTASTIC. Ever since Carter was born, I have felt guilt at not keeping some sort of journal for my kids. I barley write in mine anymore. I usually will sit down with my journal and need to rec...
