Update...

Hello Everyone

Well this summer has been a crazy one that's for sure....lots of fun and excitement with all the kids. Robbie is doing great he is so smart he is talking and counting. He can count to 7 and can say 10-15 words that everyone can understand. He loves his teacher's and is so excited to see them when they get here and cry's when they leave. His Austism testing has been scheduled for August 23rd @ North Bay. Fingers will be crossed that day.

This weekend we are going to the family cabin in Truckee. Last year Robbie didn't have a good time, but we are all thinking that it had something to do with the pressure in his ears. Last weekend we went to Reno and he did really good. So we are hoping that this year he is going to have so much fun playing in the creek and getting dirty and running around all over the place. Makes me tired just thinking about it, lol!!! Thank god family will be there to help me out!

Today we are going to try to go to Dillon Beach! The kids just love it there and it is something fun for all of us.

Tomorrow is going to be a busy day of school, packing, shopping, Donating Blood @ the Annie's Homegrown Blood Drive set up by my BFF Tiffany, then Drive to Vacaville to pick up Karley's Friend so that they can go to the cabin.

Well got to go...Everyone have a great day!!!

Robbie Update

Robbie's surgery went really well. He is doing great. I am so proud of him, he doesnt have tutoring this week, something about funding not being approved yet. So his teachers wont be here until hopefully next week. I hate to have them not come he was just starting to get the hang of things.

As for today its Monday and Stacy Robbie and I are heading to SF today to pick up Robbie's big Sister Karley who is flying in from Germany. We are all so excited, time for a full house again.

Well got to get him ready to leave....

Love to all.

Tomorrow is the day...

Well tomorrow is Robbie's Surgery. I am so nervous!!! I know that he is going to be so much happier after but the whole thought of my baby having surgery just kills me.

On a positive note....Robbie's Tutoring sessions this past week are going really good. Robbie is really thriving, he is learning new words and even sign language. I am also learning sign language. So its been fun!!! Today is my meeting Laurie the case manager for Robbie at North Bay Regional Medical Center. We are going to discuss all the reports and set goals for Robbie. I feel so blessed that we even get the chance to use these programs.

Well Robbie is awake so I better get going, today is going to be a long day!

Surgery Is Scheduled....

Just a quick note that the surgery is going to be Thursday June 17th @ UCSF. His DR. thinks that he is going to make a full recovery with his hearing, which will help with the Speech Therapy!

Keep Fingers Crossed!

Update...

Hello everyone Just a quick update...

Thursdays Therapy Appointment was great Robbie and his Speech Therapist Anne got along great. He really liked her for just meeting her. She sees lots of things to help our lil man on.

Tomorrow Monday is our Ear Nose and Throat Appointment @ UCSF. Hopefully we will get some good news about his ears. Tuesday is another day of Therapy Appointments, this is going to be with a Behaviorist that is going to help him with milestones.

So I will send an update tomorrow after we get home.

Hope everyone has a great week!!!

Wednesday.......

Robbie has been making great progress on his own the last few days, he has started saying P=Please and Thank You. He is so stinking cute. He really looks like he is trying to get the words out. He is eating a little better...He had chicken strips and french fries for lunch and then Cheese Pizza for Dinner, 2 of his favorites.

Today I was laying on the couch and Robbie came up to me and laid down in my arms and passed right out. We both fell asleep for a few hours. I just love that feeling. Tonight my mom came over and ate dinner with us and colored with Robbie. Its a great new activity that we do.

Tomorrow is Robbie's First Speech Therapy Appointment w/ Anne from North Bay Reg. Medical Center, I hope that everything goes smoothly....Next Monday we have our UCSF Appointment and then Tuesday we start Behavioral Therapy w/ Jodi. Keep your fingers crossed for us!

Memorial Day

Well Happy Memorial Day Everyone...

Today Robbie is enjoying some time away from home, he just left with Grandma Ginger. He loves to go with Grandma for the day. As for me this is my time to clean the house.

This weekend has been pretty quiet, we have been enjoying this sunny weather and BBQing. Robbie has been camping out in his tent in the living room he loves it thinks it pretty funny. Hopefully that is a good sign for when we go camping again.

Robbie has added a couple more words to his vocabulary. This weekend he started saying dadda and bye! I am so proud of him I know that it hard from him to communicate but he sure is trying. I just love that little dude!

Well time for me to start cleaning...Happy Memorial Day!!!

Hello Everyone....

I have set up this new Blog to inform everyone on Robbie's Progress as we will be starting Speech and Food Therapy Thursday June 3rd. His Ear Nose and Throat Appt in SF is June 7th, and that's when we will find out about the tubes.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask. No question is a stupid question to me.

As for Today Robbie and I are playing around the house, doing laundry and getting ready to BBQ tonight. It is suppose to be 80 degrees today...I am so happy that the rain has finally stopped.

I will update as much as possible....

Thanks and Happy Memorial Day!!!

Love Robbie and Carrie
