HAPPY EASTER!!!
You may ask why I have a picture of a chair....That's SNOW!
Katie and Andy enjoying Easter FUN!
Andy doing some serious egg hunting...
Winner!!!
Katie loved every minute of it!

I don't have any dressed up pictures, we looked pretty crazy this morning as we weren't planning on snow. The bunny was good to all though.....

Ok, I'm a bad friend. I havent posted in a REALLY long time.
Kid update....
Andy started speech and is talking up a storm. We don't exactly know what he is saying all the time but he sure is trying. He got croup a week ago, that was no fun. We go back to Children's hospital in a month to reassess speech at the cleft team speech and do another hearing assessment.
Katie got a big girl bike with training wheels a few weeks ago, and she has really taken off. Mom's heart skips a beat every time she wobbles on it. I can teach other kids motor skills...but I'm scared to teach my own. Yes, she has a helmet, but I cant help the mommy anxiety. Andy graduated to Katie's old bike and he is of the mindset that whatever Katie can do he can too. He doesnt use the pedals but he pushes right along and don't even THINK of trying to help him.
We are really excited the weather is getting better, there have been a few days above 50 degrees, thank goodness! Kids playing outside=happy mom

My job has had it's ups and downs, but right now it seems to be getting better. There were definately a few rough points (because people didn't understand what EDUCATIONAL services were) but I'm starting to have people see my way. And I have learned a lot from the other therapist too.
Not too much exciting other than that. Really enjoying the casual time with my family...It's so nice to be able to just pop over to my moms for an hour. And the kids have gotten so attached to their grandparents!
