Well next week is a cRaZy week LOL I guess I should mention that they are all crazy with Briar, but this one is especially.
Monday - GI at sick kids (third times the charm?)
Tuesday - Recreation and Seating clinic (YAH!!! Been waiting so long for a great stroller to support Briar)
Wednesday - Off work because E and B don't have day care (Good luck in Germany Cait!! We will miss you so much!! )
Thursday - Another CHAP meet and greet (where we will hopefully find a respite worker)
Friday - Wedding rehearsal for Cole and Alicia
Saturday - My little brother gets married!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
With regards to B, things have been going well. She is adjusting beautifully at Shelly's. She has started homo milk and a sippy cup twice a day. She is really getting good at holding her head up. She is taking a little break from physiotherapy. Mostly so I can work full time for a few weeks, but also because it's nice to have a break :) She is sleeping well and not up coughing all night. We almost made it through the spring without antibiotics too... oh well, she is feeling better now.
My friend Carol and I were just talking last week about the "first" time someone would ask me about "what does Briar have?" Well it happened last weekend. Helen and I were out with our girls, and the owner at Playstreet (who was so nice) asked Helen how old Briar was. Carol and I thought this would give her away hehehehe, anyways when Helen told him, he approached me and asked if Briar liked balloons. I said, yes... shiny ones :) He then asked me a few questions and we talked about Briar . It was such a nice first experience with "why is your child different?" but funny how we observe those around us. He went on to talk about his daughter going deaf at 4 years old and how she now has a cochlear implant. I was amazed at his openness, he has obviously been doing this for longer than me. I, however, am learning. I'll post with a lesson when I learn it LOL
Did I mention my brother is getting married next week?? This is crazy and amazing itself. We waited a long time for him to propose, but I always said "My sister in law, Alicia...." HAHA Anyways, I will post a few pics after the wedding. This is so surreal to me, but I am ready.... I hope you two are as well :)
