Ugh!
I know the feeling... Thinking of you. :kiss:
That's awesome to read!Hey Jenn, does Joel (or Abby, for that matter) have trouble falling asleep? Have you ever heard of parents using melatonin to help their kids get on a good sleeping schedule?Joel is definitely feeling the cabin fever, as his stimming has definitely increased lately. Abby seems to spend most of her time catching up on sleep.
Ugh!

So I'm going to try to get her up in an hour or so and try to have her stay awake.
3:30 in the morning?!Yes, I have a friend that uses that with her autistic son...we've never considered it. He usually just plays with toys or stims till he falls asleep. However, he isn't a sound sleeper, which I've learned when we go on vacation. That's always why where we stay on vacation is such a big deal for us, as Abby can be restless as she sleeps also. The kids each need their own bed. Abby has always had problems with relaxing herself to sleep, from the time she was a newborn. In fact, she is trying to get her sleep schedule rearranged again, as she went to a lock-in Sunday night and stayed up all night. So she spent a lot of yesterday sleeping, and was awake until 3:30 this morning.
Jenny, your kids must be loving all of these snow days!! :lol: When was their last day of school?Yes, I have a friend that uses that with her autistic son...we've never considered it.

He's been close for awhile. But today he started pulling himself around on his belly w/ those big hands of his. So it's not 'belly off the ground' and not quite 'army crawl'. But I think it counts enough to put in the baby book. :shrug:
:lol: And we're off to the races!
Uh-huh, I wake up and hear the TV, and I was like, Girl, get your butt to bed. She said I just want to see the American figure skaters!!
Well, I can't blame her for that...I love late nights in general and late night Olympics in particular.
Sigh...girls, i have GOT to get my act together. We're halfway through Feb and I haven't achieved any of my goals that I set for self-improvement. My whole life needs an EXTREME MAKEOVER.
Out of the last two weeks, they have been Monday and Friday of last week, and not at all so far this week.
Of course it is! Man, are you in trouble.
He can't go fast enough to hurt himself, so I let it go...he's just taking after his father anyway. :lol:
Agreed....just this morning my son was sliding down our stairs on his comforter...did I mention he likes to do that head first?
((Hugs)) for you Amy - I haven't focused on personal goals at all, so I feel for you. My pottery wheel is sitting under boxes right now, and my weight...well, just don't like to talk about that one. :dazzle:
Omg, we have a never ending one of those too!! :brick:
