Hello again, I hope all had a happy and safe Halloween. Yesterday was busy! I took a bunch of goodies to Kaitlynne's class and had a small party with them (it was kind of sad...the kids were all so shocked that anyone was doing anything for them...I don't mean as far as the teacher, but that a parent was involved. Hard to explain, but an odd feeling). Kaitlynne is good friends with the girl she was having problems with, so that was nice to see. She was such a goofball while I was there, it was cute. I checked her out from there so we could go home and start getting her and Brandon ready. As you can see from the above pics, she turned out SO cute...I can see a glimpse of the woman she'll become...how beautiful she is and will be...wow. We ran a few errands, stop and saw Grandpa and Nana, then went to Kim's mom's house to meet-up. We went our usual route, but I was surprised at how many houses weren't participating this year...also heard there weren't as many kids out...really wierd. The kids had a blast, tho. Kaitlynne was so tired when we got home, but I had to shower her (lol)...that stuff came right out, surprisingly!
For the most part, I think she's been really trying to be better with me. The reward/chore chart seems to be working. She has a "checking" and "savings" account going...earns money, as well as loses it. I gave her a dollar free-and-clear today as a surprise...told her it was because she was so good last night and hasn't been fighting with me in the mornings. She was surprised, and politely said thank you. I asked her if it was nice to earn something...not have to fight with me to try and get it...she agreed. We tie-dyed some shirts the other day, had a blast with it...we, for once, did something together with no fighting and enjoyed it! It's a start, and I'll take it :)
She has an appt next week to start new counseling/psych care. She's being discharged from her current care (I don't agree with, but they "claim" it's beyond their control), as tho she's "cured". Anyway...we'll see how this goes. I have my reservations, but hopefull.
Brandon has another appointment tomorrow for his latest round of the RSV vaccine. I hate seeing him get a shot, but I know it's worth it in the long run. He's doing wonderful, he's such a joy...and so big! Everyone can't wait to hear his current weight/height :)
Quick note to my honey...I love you, thank you for every day we have together as a family!
Take care all...I'm off to read journals (HINT HINT).
