January and February UPdate :)

Okay so now that I have about caught up with the pictures from the past 3 months....

Lets Update:

Baylie:
Baylie has an actual diagnosis!!! WOO HOO!! I should probably not be so happy that my kid has problems, but as most of you know this 'diagnosis' has been almost 4 years in the making! Baylie had a doctors appointment in December with a geneticist. She has a triplication on her first chromosome. Which mean that instead of two copies (one on each set like you and me) she has a total of 4. What does that mean? We don't know because there is no other documented case- Baylie is the first. So still keeping with trying to help her be the best Baylie she can be we went to Billings to meet with doctor Nicholson. She is a neuropsychologist. After playing with Baylie, asking me lots of qestions and reading the evals and other doctors notes she concluded that Baylie has high functioning autism (aka. Asperger's). So we were not shocked, but relieved that finally we can move forward. She was put on Trazadone to help her sleep and so far its working good! Other than that Baylie will turn 5 in a few weeks and she got registered for Kindergarten to start in Fall 2011! Holy COW!!! I just dont know where it went. She continues to like school and is even starting to engage some of the other kids in playing (yay!)

Daisy:

Daisy turned 3 in December. She is a big pain in my butt, but I sure do love her! She started preschool at the end of January and is so far LOVING it!

Pepper:

PJ is one day shy of 9 months old already!!! Where did that go??! She has four teeth and uses them regularly. She adores her sisters and her daddy and has started speaking! Mama, Dada, lala (when i sing to her she sings lala back to me!) baba etc... She is trying hard to stand alone and pulls up on everything and now recently is now scooting along things (like the couch) holding on. Not much longer for her and she will be running with her big sisters!

spagetti face!

HI!

This is her bear stance- she tries to push up so she can stand but instead she just falls back on her tush!

James got a new job finally and loves it there. He now works for L&H Industrial. His offical title is oilfield/megadoor. He has been there 3 weeks and already has been given a good raise and his benefits are awesome. He come home happy now (sure beats coming home cranky all the time like he was) I think he found his forever job at last!
