Where does time go

Wow, where does time go? Its already December, last time I posted it was October. I've been busy busy busy with the kids, Noel's therapists coming out to the house- she has started Speech and OT now and doing much better, we actually know she is in the house now. I took Noel for little trip to Morgantown,WV to see a feeding specialist and Im waiting on their report, but I thought it was successful, as she did what she always does for us, throw up when thick or textured foods are offered; one thing she does like is Hamburger Helper grinded up - yuck.

April is right around the corner and Noel will be starting preschool - Im so excited, I really think she will start to blossom then. She will have teachers and people that deal with blind and deaf children everyday and know what kind of things to do for them and how to teach them. Im not saying that I dont , but well I dont. I research as much as possibly can, and I do everything her therapists tell me to do with her as time will allow me , but I think with her going to school, things will start to change. The drive 2 hours one way isnt going to be nice, but its worth it so that my baby can get the best education possible.

Merry Christmas everyone. 

 I probably wont be back until after Christmas, Im working on my hairbow and tutu business and raising 3 kids and working, busy busy busy.

Its been a while

Its been a while, Im sorry that I haven't had the chance to log on and write. Life has been a little hectic with a newborn and Noel is now cruising around the house. She is walking along furniture, climbling all over the place, up on the couch, up the stairs, everywhere. Its great to see her come along the way she is, its such a huge difference from the way she was before when you would never even know she was there. Now when I get home from work and say hello to all the kids, Noel comes crawling up to me and stands up to hug my leg. 




The above is some more recent pics of Noel and her sisters. She is really growing up, im so excited to take her up to a seminar at the West Virginia School for the Deaf/Blind in two weeks, we will be staying there all weekend and learning different thinks about braille, working with the cane and touring the school she will be starting in April 2011.

Crawling

Noel crawled for the 1st time yesterday, as usual it made me cry. I was so happy to see her go from her one knee crawl to two knee's and two hands , she did run straight into the wall , and she cried for all of about 3 seconds but its a learning process. Mommy is proud.
