$6000 teeth and more!!

Lots of stuff happening at Casa de Jenn. Not sure if that was even Spanish. Boys started their new daycare Monday and after a bit of a rough first day they have really settled in. This is a family daycare in Granby. The boys get to play and enjoy a less rigid schedule and as a result, JP hasn't had a single meltdown. He still gets frustrated easily, but in a quieter environment it sounds like he is able to calm down pretty quickly. Napping in little port-a-cribs seems to be helping, he is very rested at home and his mood the last 2 days has been fantastic. He is sleeping better at night, no more wake-ups. Yesterday when it was time to leave he let me put on his coat without a total freak out... this is rare and wonderful!! So, woot for everyone!

Autumn needs braces. For a mere $6000 she can have nice straight teeth. Ugh. She is going in March to get them on. Thank the Lord for payment plans!!

The show wraps this weekend. I didn't have rehearsal last night, so I... drum roll please... PAINTED MY FINGERNAILS!! Oh, and tried to make a bread in the bread machine for the first time. It looks sort of like a mountain landscape, with one big hill on one side and a plateau on the other. Tasted good though, so there's that. Sandwiches will look like amoeba shapes, but who cares.

Valentines Day. Big whoop. Aaron is not working tomorrow so he's coming to the show with me.

Working on the denial factor with JP. I've joined an online support group and am going to contact the Westfield group to see about joining them on Thursdays. I figure if I can do 2 things everyday that has to do with ASD I'll eventually come to accept this. Questions answered, appointments made... those sorts of things. If I make it a point to do two things a day I won't get overwhelmed and turn away from it again. There is just so much out there. Chelating, detox, leaky gut, hand flapping, tantrums, speech delay... google any one of these and the results will astound you.

Onward and upward.
