A World Away: January 2009
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 28, 2009. New thing to worry about. I need help from parents out there. I'm really concerned over Wes' new "trick". I apologize if this is too graphic, but I'm at a loss. Has anyone else experienced this? What was your course of action? I'm really lost here. Links to this post. Monday, January 26, 2009. That's using your noggin. So tonight is a big night for him. We have tried using the toddler bed feature on his crib and that turned into a disaster but I can't leave him in the cri...

A World Away: October 2008
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 26, 2008. Happy Birthday my boy. Today, Wesley turns 4. I always had a hard time picturing myself with a child who wasn't a baby. I guess because I wanted a. So badly that I couldn't get past the baby stage. Well, now my baby is a child. No longer the little bundle I so longed for, but a child who fills my heart with love. Links to this post. Tuesday, October 21, 2008. Today, Wes was supposed to start aquatic therapy. I had heard some good things from other parents and I figured. Wes will...

A World Away: Accidents Happen
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009/04/accidents-happen.html
Thursday, April 9, 2009. Wes is in the middle of a constipation cycle. He was given goldfish crackers on Monday and accidentally given cheese on Tuesday. He still isn't eating well on the new foods. I did get him to take a whole EO. 28 Splash yesterday so that's good. I took a trip to a natural market in another city and found some cereal bars that are very similar to Nutri. I've been giving him Miralax. But worried about him getting too much. Maybe we should stop the EO. Yesterday, Wes had a follow up a...

A World Away: June 2008
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 30, 2008. I got to read a magazine article today. I whole article! Granted, it was from an old magazine, but still! I haven't read an entire magazine article in it's entirety since Casey had surgery a year ago. Boy did that feel good. Links to this post. Sunday, June 29, 2008. Time to get Zaney. One of our local favorites came home yesterday to give two outstanding performances. Dan Zanes. Has become a favorite around here. Particularly his song "Hello". The skies opened up and poured down w...

A World Away: Hello Floor. Meet Nose.
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009/06/hello-floor-meet-nose.html
Monday, June 22, 2009. Hello Floor. Meet Nose. Life with boys is interesting at best and frustrating at worst. Boys are rough, tough, and very active. I'm finding it not easy to relate to their little world. The bright spot is, having a little brother when you have autism is a blessing. Casey will not give up on his older brother when it comes to playing. He adapts to Wes' playing habits and that's not always a good thing. This comment has been removed by the author. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. The Quirk Fac...

A World Away: September 2008
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 20, 2008. The Cogs are turning. Wes has always been behind in his cognitive thinking and cognitive shifting. These are very hard areas for him, but he's made huge progress since he's started therapy and school. Wait, there's more! She again asked him to name an animal and he said cow. She asked what does a cow say and he said mooo. Her next question was a cow is a. and he said animal. Wow. That really is the coolest thing I have ever witnessed. Links to this post.

A World Away: February 2009
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2009. A taste of success. Today was crack down day. I have Wes multiple weeks of no pressure, no asking, and no comments on using the toilet and not wearing diapers anymore. He was still having overflow accidents and I had had my limit of washing bedding and loads of laundry. I was putting my foot down and today was the day. Links to this post. Saturday, February 7, 2009. The library has Watch Me Learn. I'll be sure to update after the two weeks. Links to this post. What's in a name.

A World Away: Sweet relief
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009/04/sweet-relief.html
Thursday, April 30, 2009. I don't know why, but I am still amazed that this is working. Maybe it's because I didn't want to think it would work. I thought the effort would be more then the pay off, but I was wrong. I can just see the relief on Wes' face when he goes. Some days he's going twice! No more stomach distention, no more struggling, and no more constipation! No more constipation - good news! And good luck with the potty training! Thursday, April 30, 2009. Tuesday, May 12, 2009. Hi A World Away,.

A World Away: Things are looking good
http://jessica-mom2boys.blogspot.com/2009/04/things-are-looking-good.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. Things are looking good. Not sure if this is a coincidence, but his speech has improved slightly. His behavior, however, has not. He hit me the other day and I looked him right in the eye and told him that I would not tolerate hitting and he is to keep his hands to himself. I then turned my back on him. Within 20 seconds he said "I'm sorry. Give me a hug big guy! Your Stick-to-it-tiveness Blows my Mind! Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
