Let's see, it's been a busy week here. Like I said, Hubby was gone. Tuesday Courtney had a Physical Therapy (PT) evaluation for her gross motor skills. According to the tests they did, she comes in about a year behind in her gross motor skills. We are also going to have her fine motor skills tested, we expect those to show a delay also. After that, we had her regular therapy for her swallow.
Wednesday was a little slower. Courtney went to daycare and Kasey went to her PT session. Pretty soon I am going to be living at the PT place!
That day we went to my parents' house for dinner. My sister was down for my mom's first chemo session, which was that day. She was feeling pretty good when we got there. But towards the end of the time we were there she was staring to hit the wall and get pretty tired.
Apparently the next day her stomach was pretty queasy. Then she got a Nulasta shot which makes your bones make white blood cells to help your immune system. Apparently it's pretty painful, makes your bones ache. So she has been feeling pretty miserable today. we didn't stay long at my parents house Wednesday night because of the way she was feeling.
Thursday was a fun day. We actually didn't have to get up and get moving for anything, so we had a PJ day. We stayed in our PJ's until we had to change to go to My Gym that night. Funny thing was that it snowed while we were at My Gym, and into the night. It snowed pretty heavy, it was pretty. It caused some road closures the next morning, or mostly bridge and overpass closures because they were so icy. I took some pictures for Hubby since he missed yet another snow! It was also really foggy, so I took some pictures of that too.
We headed off to MOPS. It was our group's turn to work in the nursery. Each small group takes a turn so that they didn't have to raise the membership dues. That was sure fun. 4 of the other members of my group were in the nursery with me. Kasey was there as well. There were 14 kids, ranging from age 6 weeks up to about 18 months. It was so fun! The little babies (younger than Kasey) were just so cute! You forget in such a short amount of time just how little they are!
Speaking of which, Kasey turned 6 months old on Thursday! I can't believe how fast time has flown by! My mom told me to take some pictures of her toothless smile while it's still here (which as of today will be going away fast). So, I took a bunch of pictures Friday night while I was getting the girls ready for bath.
Hubby's plane got delayed a few times in Denver, so he got home super late Friday night, or I guess actually really early Saturday morning. The girls were so happy to see him Saturday morning. Courtney is now at that age where she says she misses people. I am not sure she understands what it really means, but she uses it correct, so I guess maybe she does! She told me this week a few times that she misses her daddy. She also told me she misses her Nana. It's pretty cute! We did talk to Hubby a few times on the computer while he was gone, and we try to have Courtney call to say goodnight every night before bed.
This morning the girls and I headed to Target to get some much needed shopping done. Hubby stayed home to watch the Virginia Tech game. The weather was really awful, freezing rain and snow. It made for some pretty slick roads. Hubby made a pot of chili for dinner and I made an apple pie for dessert (yep, still working on using up those apples). Rick came over for dinner and dessert. Finally around 9pm he was going to head for home. However, the roads are so bad, that we all decided it was best that he stay here for the evening. (People were struggling to drive in our neighborhood.) He had also brought his dog, Hershey, with him, so he had no reason he HAD to go home. So, at present we are playing a game of Super Scrabble and downing some alcoholic beverages. In fact Hubby is working pretty hard at making Rick a very happy camper so to speak. He is pouring a shot called a "Duck Fart". It's Kahlua, Baileys, and Crown Royal. Hubby is matching him shot for shot, so it may be a long night for me!
Going back to Courtney, we have decided to pull her out of daycare all together. Since she will be adding at least 1 if not 2 more PT sessions, we needed time to do all these! We really don't want to interfere with afternoons because she still naps for the most part, as does Kasey. I have Courtney signed up for preschool at the zoo one morning a week (Thursdays) so that takes Thursday's out of the loop for therapy. Friday I have my MOPS meetings, so Friday mornings are out. She already has one therapy session on Tuesdays, so as you can see, we were out of days. It works out well since we had already put in our notice at her current daycare, and the new daycare has agreed to give us our deposit back thankfully.
Well, it's late, and I am loosing horribly at Scrabble. Guess I will call it a night! Hope everyone is well!
