Ashlyn needs glasses

I had to take Ashlyn to a ped eye dr yesterday. We found out she needs glasses to correct her lazy eye. Anyone have any suggestions on how to keep them on her besides super glue LOL... She has to go back in jan and have a patch put on her eye. Not looking forward to that one. She freaks out with bandaides I can't imagine a patch.

Got good news today

I had to go to court for Ashlyn today. They wanted to see how progress was going. The judge told the foster worker he wanted the adoption finalized by December. I can see now it's going to be the best christmas present ever. Just had to share the good news :)

How do I make him understand

Oh boy it's been a rough few days here. Yesterday Ashlyn was having a really bad day. All she did was screamed and screamed. She had tantrum after tantrum throwing things kicking hitting you name it. My husband isn't use to it yet and kept telling to spank her. I tried explaining to him you can't do that it will only make things worse. Not sure if something happen at daycare or what but she was rotten. How do I make my husband understand that thats there way of letting stress or whatever out? To… Continue

What foods does your child eat

I know Ashlyn is a picky eater and I wish I could get her to eat differant things. So far I can get her to eat peanut butter/ jelly, toast, mac & cheese, spaghetti, ceral, pancakes and of course cookies. Just wondering what are some other ideas to try. She has to lick everything before she eats it and if she don't want it you better watch out. It goes wherever she throws it.

I can't wait to hear when she finally is yours forever. :]

Landon is doing pretty good. Learning new words and signs. He's actually doing a lot better with talking. Still a short vocabulary list. But, it's more than it's ever been. So, I'm thrilled. If I counted right. He can offically say about 25 words. :]

Going to blog later on all the details. Lots of things are going to be going on soon. And, have already taken place. So, be on the lookout for that sometime soon. :]

Hope that you have a wonderful weekend to come.
