Because I know you all love to see where they go . . .

**edited to say that OT is occupational therapy.**



Here she is, Clara, in her perfect spot! This bedding is so cute and I loved working with it!! You will have to read the story here about what happen with the bedding . . . . and then email Sunni and find out who she used just in case you are in the market for bedding . . . . that way you will know who not to use {I think?}

Anyhoodle - a super cute and cheerful room! And I know she appreciated all the packing peanuts I sent with the painting! hehe! Not much longer and there will be a baby in that crib! Good luck!

Okay - I'm afraid that some people think that I don't want anymore orders after my last post. I had several people email me asking me to "please paint one more" or "is there anyway you could possible do another one, please....." - I didn't mean that at all with the post. Really, I didn't! I love orders and I hope to continue to get them! So, please keep them coming!

Last night Laws had his assessment for OT. Finally. I have to say that it was my fault that the assessment kept getting put off. I had to reschedule several times and blah, blah {not that you all care for all the details,} but we went in for Hudson's OT today and I was told that after Laws' assessment, he needed to come in 3 times a week for OT. Three times a week?? Are you kidding?? Now, how in the world am I suppose to squeeze that in?? I guess it doesn't matter, I figured out how and we are now set to go for the 12 weeks!

So, to give you all the reader's digest version - Hudson goes to OT {1x a week} and feeding therapy {1x a week}, Carson goes to speech therapy {2x a week} and feeding therapy {1x a week}, and Lawson goes to speech therapy {2x a week} and OT {3x a week} - Hudson gets speech through the school system and hopefully soon will get OT through them as well - meaning I don't have to take him anywhere - they come to him while he is in preschool. Praise God! Remember - Hudson also goes to PreK 5 times a week while Carson and Laws goes to MDO 2 times a week! Poor Emsley, she is just along for the ride! Which is all day long.

Can I tell you that I just busted out laughing when they said Lawson needed to come in 3 times a week - Just cracked up - I know they think I'm retarded. But I just couldn't help myself. For those who don't know - that must be my defense mechanism. Laughter. When I'm nervous and especially when there is nothing I can do about a situation. I just laugh. Hysterically.

Okay and for the dumbest part of all of this - I have to admit to you all that I have horrible english - I speak slang - I know I say words I shouldn't {but I spell alot more for fear of repeating - haha - not that that helps when my 3 year old can sound out words!} What I'm getting at is that I think I need speech therapy! I need to speak properly - and it just ain't happenin' {see, I can't even write in proper english anymore! ahhhh!} Trust me, it's probably a Good Thing the kids don't really speak - I'd be afraid of how it would come out!

Example - Hudson had his finger stuck up his nose.

me, "Hudson, get your finger out of your nose - that's just plain gross!"

H, "I'm picking my brain out."

Clarification - normally, when the kids are digging for gold, I say, "stop it, your going to pick your brain out!" Apparently, that is what Hudson was trying to do - "EWWWW, gross!"

Okay, I'll leave you with that one - I've got a painting I have to finished, so expect pictures of "Gracie" tomorrow!
