Update 2

Shayli is doing great! She is once again getting all A's and 1 B. The other day I received a phone call from her Art teacher. It was during the school day and my first thought was "Shoot! Did she get paint in her eye? Clay?" She was perfectly fine. Her teacher is just so impressed by her as a student that she tought that Shayli's excellent behaviour deserved a call home. How great is that?! She is more than half way done with Drivers Ed and she and Derrick have started a project together that will hopefully earn her some cash dollars. :)

Rad is doing great as well. His speech has improved so much from last year. All he is working on now is his "r" sound. He has earned 100% on every spelling test so far this year. He started wrestling and cub scouts and enjoys them both. He is still batteling dental carries and had a load more of dental work done last week. They orally sedated him and man oh man did he say some funny things...

To another patient, "We are the same! I didn't get to eat this morning either!"

"If you turn Dar around it would be Rad."

"You don't read straight ahead and you don't read toward the exit sign. You don't read toward that wall. You always read toward THAT wall."

"My cavities will be gone until my next birthday cake."

"My belly is so sleepy now... I'm breathing so slow... Mom if you cover up Brad's B then it is Me."

"One time at Grameri's an alligator was brushing his teeth and the frog and the bird said, 'We wish we had teeth!' Then I said in my head, no you don't. They are super hard to take care of."

"I know how to fly airplanes Mom, but not real ones."

"David really likes bread and he was like hogging it. So Sol said, 'Hey, why don't you give some to Rad?' And I was like YESSSSS!"

"My eyes are starting to get blurry now. I slept so hard I couldn't hear the wind. I like these pants now because they have cool pockets and when I take my lego man's hair off I can put it in my pocket."

"Apple seeds and pumpkin seeds really get mixed up. Sometimes I am funny and give my lego guy and blaket a kiss and I say, 'see you when I get back in the car after the store.' But they do not talk back, I hope people know that."

"I am getting sleepy because my head is dizzy. My brain thinks forward and then stops and goes backwards. If I stand up right now I will fall flat on my face."

"Whew, I'm dizzy Mom."

He would jabber, jabber, jabber, then fall asleep and snore. Then wake up again and do the jabber, jabber, jabber again. It was cute, funny and sad all at the same time.

Cade is doing... wouldn't you guess? Great! He is growing quick and is such a little ham. Aunt V has been watching him when I have to work a week day and he loves it. He starts speech therapy on Tuesday. I'm sure that he will do super and learn as quick.
