Another day...

And finally a delivery!! Our Home Heath finally delivered our first order of supplies! Though they only deliver 2 weeks for the first order...after that it will be by month. We were able to get his Carnation Instant Breakfast though CRS (state org that helps kids with certian disabilities) So we're set on that too! Sooo much of a relief! Now...where to store it all! :) They didn't get the extension size right, but that's ok we can still use these, and they are working on getting the correct length.

The school district called, they are sending someone out to 'observe' Jacob at Daycare on Monday. I guess they are still undecided on where to place him. I will fight tooth and nail for Houston Elem...I think it's a much better fit for him. They dont want to meet with us till the day before he starts school. That's not settling with me...I want the chance to have the school nurse meet him and learn his tube feeds the week before...not the day before. We're not talking about a boo boo and a band aid...it's his nutrition. Speaking of Nutrition...Jacob has gained! He's hit 31 lbs...sooo amazing! We never thought we'd see the day!!

On the loss side though. ;) I've lost 27 lbs!!! Also Amazing...again I never thought i'd see the day! My journey is not over...I have 73 pounds to go to my goal! Doesnt seem like as much as 3 months ago when this started. I havent bought new clothes yet, but by christmas it'll be necessary. What a wonderful though! (except for the $$ it'll cost ;))

Caitlynn is doing great in school. She's loving 4th grade, and learning lots of lessons! Shes averaging about 90+% on all tests. Except for the one lesson...the lesson is "you must study your vocab words to pass the test" .. that was a 40%...and she got an F. Her first ever...in 5 years of school, so not really bad. She now know's she cant just slide by ALL of 4th grade. Part of it she will...Last year in Pennsbury she was learning on a 4th grade level for 80% of her classes. This year with a different gifted program she's learning on a 4th grade level for 90%. So she's basically "relearning" what she learned last year. Lets hope and Pray that it works well for her! Her glasses got broke 3 days ago on the way to school. The bus slammed on it's breaks to avoid a dog, and her face hit the front seat. She's fine, but her glasses were in 2 pieces. We found a eye glass place today that welded them for $12! What a awesome find!!! She's due for new glasses on 12/1 and insurance will pay for everything. So finding someone to repair them (even temporarly) was great!

Franks doing well...healing from his accident at work, and getting back into thing. One day at a time ... right?



Oh yes..One last WOW on Jacob. He's talking up a storm! He's saying "car, go, zoom, click, caitlynn (sorta) Dada, and a few more!" When you ask him "wheres the tree...he'll point to it!!!" Where's the cat/kitty, he'll do too if one of the cats is around." What wonderful strides he's doing!
