I thought Monday was over?!

Are you SURE today is Wednesday?? Sometimes I question it. All day long it has felt like a Monday.

Our dear sweet Will woke at 730 breathing fire!! He was on a role this morning and it was NOT to make my life pleasant. He cried from the time I got him out of bed until nap it seemed. Mommy could do NOTHING right and daddy wasn't here. He had waffles for breakfast but mom couldn't make them come out of the toaster fast enough. He wanted to snuggle, but mom wasn't holding him right. I give up!! About 930 I put him down for a nap. He protested loudly until 10 and then gave in.

It was finally quiet in the house. I could finally get some things started here. WRONG! I had barely started and a man from the housing department here on post RANG the DOORBELL! Jack went into a barking spasm, Will started screaming and I wanted to crawl into a dark hole and cry!! Jack had other plans. He bolted out the door after the repair man. Fortunately once the repair man came inside the door, Jack did too. Easy! For once. Will and I made it another 2 hours. He actually played OK for a few minutes and was highly entertained by The Wiggles. Not my favorite form of entertainment, but when you are desperate, you'll do most anything!

Mike came home for lunch to save me from my day for at least a few minutes. I am so happy when he gets home. I think Will is too! He fallows Mike around and repeats DADDY! A million times. It is too cute. Will had a nice lunch of PB&J and some apple sauce and seemed pretty happy. Though I knew he really needed a GOOD nap. Morgan had just gotten in from school for the day when I put him down. Normally, this DOES NOT work for me at all! However, today, it did! We have started putting a sound machine in Will's room because of the morning birds. It works I tell you! So, this afternoon I put him in bed, turned on his machine, walked out and shut the door. He was asleep in no time. He ended up taking almost a 2 hour nap! Maybe this evening will be much better.

Will was also SUPPOSED to have PT this morning. Notice I say "supposed". I swear there have been more problems with this therapy company than I had with our oxygen company in Nashville. By the way, that was A LOT! So anyhow, here is the deal. many of you know our therapist has a big problem being tardy. I have talked to her supervisor and we were attempting to work on this with her. My phone rings at 8 this morning (in the middle of one of Wills many meltdowns) and I am met with "I'm sorry to tell you therapy has been cancelled for the day because your therapist is in the hospital with appendicitis." OK....now don't get me wrong I COMPLETELY understand you cannot predict something like this and well, shit happens, but SERIOUSLY! Haven't we already had enough crap with this lady? So her boss asks if we would like to wait for her to recover or find a new therapist. I told her we needed a new therapist because this is now week 3 of NO therapy and I was just not pleased. Even though this week was NO ONES fault. It's just difficult to want/need things for your child and feel like obstacles are constantly being thrown in your way. Now we are waiting for word on a new therapist. i hope it comes sooner rather than later.

Are there any good parts to this day? Yes there are!! I'm telling you I have some great kids, even when I want to ship them to Antarctica!! Morgan came in from school with an amazing report card. She also ENJOYED doing her homework today. That for us is a huge deal. Also, Will has been trying to go from a sitting/crawling position to standing in the middle of the floor with NO support. We have been trying to get him to do this for some time now, but since he has decided for it to be HIS idea, he is trying harder. Also, if you ask him if he poo poo'd, he will raise his shirt and point to his belly. I know it isn't exactly the correct part of the body, but he understands that he did something and it came from somewhere under the diaper area!! Maybe someday in the next 6 months we MIGHT be ready to potty train?!?! Maybe, just maybe!

So that has been our day. I hope yours has been amazing. Till then y'all.
