Wilson’s World

…. and to satisfy my Mom ;0)

So it’s been a while, sorry. For some reason my computer decided that it didn’t want me to blog but luckily I have a handy husband who fixed it so now if I don’t post it’ll just be me slackin’ ;0).

Anyways, I don’t even know where I left off so I’ll start with hockey. Preston’s season is coming to an end. They played their last regular season game today and won…. they were undefeated this year!!!! OH and the best part, Preston scored 2 goals…. that gives him a whoppin’ 4 for the season ;0). Next weekend is the tournament, then they  have one more weekend of tournament play to see who wins the trophy. Preston’s pretty excited as he gets to be goalie one more time this season. Which kinda brings us on to next season. Last week was the start of try-outs, yes try-outs. Poor 6,7,8 year olds have to try-out to get on the team of their choice….. so strange this hockey stuff. Preston did make the team he tried out for and even tried out for goalie. Hopefully he gets some good time in the net! Next season is a big jump, we’ll go from 1 practice and 1 game a week to 2 practices, a skills night, goalie clinic and 1-2 games a week. WOW!! For now he’s already signed up for a Goalie Camp this summer and most likely we’ll get him signed up for a skills class too. So important to get that ice time!! The good thing, he loves it and wants to do it! :0)

Kyla is back in school. She’s going 2 full days and loves it. She’s also started a new multi-sports class at the sports center. She just started on Friday and learned Football. While she was doing this I was working out. There’s a great Mommy Rocks class at the sports center that allows you to work out while your kids play…. all on the same field. It’s a great workout and the kids get to play and “help” you work out all at the same time.

Baby K, oh Baby K, where do we start! We had her 3rd six month review at DCF. Nothing really just touching base and seeing how the kids are doing. Then on to more waiting as a meeting was scheduled for the 19th…. did you catch that, “was”. I talked to the case worker the day before and the meeting was canceled. No real clue to why but do know that there is another one scheduled the 29th. So, more waiting, as usual. She’s doing good with Early Intervention and starting to “talk” more. Her sounds are so off though, it’s cute but she really does sound like she’s deaf. I wish everyone could here her sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star!

Me, I made a trip to the Dr. because I’ve been overly tired and wanted to get my iron levels checked as I have been anemic a couple times before and yep, my iron and blood count levels were low. Not too low but low enough to start a supplement at night and iron fortified cereal in the morning. I go back in a month and see how I’m doing. If no change then they will try adjusting my Prozac. Don’t know if I’ve mentioned my Prozac before…. I have PMDD, which is the PMS disorder. I basically had PMS for like 3 weeks out of the month, including while I was on my period. I tried herbs/vitamins for a couple years but it never seemed be consistent so finally gave up and went to the Dr. Let me tell ya, Prozac has been the best thing, I’m now down to 1, maybe 2 days a month of PMS. HUGE difference!!!

Jarod, he’s been working hard and playing hard. Got a new tv…. finally. He’s been bugging me for one for a looonggg time now. Got a good deal on a floor model, so yay, for him. He’s still playing Soccer. I think the season starts here in the next week or so. Not sure about Baseball though… do I dare write that, I might jinx myself ;0).

All-in-all we’ve been doing good. Getting routines down and under control. Glad tryouts are over, will be glad when the Baby K situation is finally decided but for now we’re finally enjoying the warm sunny weather outside!!

No bones, don’t worry! ;0)

For some reason the blog went down. Jarod just got to fixing it tonight. So yay, we’re back up and running.

So Jarod thought he fixed the photo problem but didn’t. Hopefully that gets fixed soon… hint, hint :0)

I rented a lens for my camera. It’s HUGE!! I just got it yesterday and have only played with it a bit. I was hoping to get a bunch of practice photos in today at Hockey but Baby K didn’t think that was a good idea. So on til Saturday.

Jarod got a new toy. He finally got a newer, bigger tv… well, actually, I bought it for him. I think Preston is in love with it…. video games look awesome on a 52″ screen ;0).

Let’s see, what else is going on. We finally have dates for Baby K’s case. Next month we have a couple dates, a meeting and a court date. Now it’s just a matter of if it all actually happens. Though I did meet with her case worker Tuesday and have a better idea of what’s taking so long and all…. sorry confidential info so no sharing.

Next week is kinda big. Kyla is going back to school for 2 full days for the rest of the year. Baby K is going to start soccer :0) and Kyla wants to do gymnastics instead of soccer next time. Though today at hockey practice she announced to me that she wants to learn to skate…. she needs her own personal assistant ;0).

As for me calming down my schedule, I did, for like 2 months….. no back to the grind ;0)

I just realized I haven’t posted any photos in a LONG time. So here:

HA! Jarod’s been messing with the server so now I can’t post photos……. gotta get him to fix it

So we have had a lot of showings since we listed house. Maybe soon we’ll get an offer…. Fingers crossed.

Kyla switched to a different soccer class and is really happy that she’s not the only girl.

Preston is enjoying his baseball clinic and is excited for Vacation this week. I think we will make our way to an undoor playground and somewhere else. He is also rounding the end of Hockey, which he still loves. He had a great defensive game yesterday. I was so proud of him!! He is progressing well.

No news on Baby K’s situation still waiting…. Maybe soon

It feels so good to get back to the basics of being a Mom!

We’ve been really really low key lately. Like not leaving the house low key. It’s been soooo nice. I’ve been able to keep up on the house, spend time with the kids and feel like a ‘good’ Mom again. There are so many things to do and place to go that you just get so wrapped up in doing it all that you forget about the basics. Simple stuff like making a good dinner for the family. I got rid of all the extras that we had to do during the day, especially with the house going on the market. It’s been a nice restart.

Kyla is going to be starting up Soccer this week but that is it. Though her sassy self was put back in line this afternoon. She seriously thinks she rules the world but we’ll see how it goes from here on out.

Baby K has a cold but otherwise is doing well. No new news on her situation… more waiting, as usual.

I have no knew pictures or anything else. Like I said we’ve been laying low. I think Soccer will be it for us this week. Oh plus a visit to Baby K’s Brother’s place and then EI(early intervention) will come to us on Friday. We always have something to do but the last few days have been really good.

Now off to finish up some laundry.

Alright, so I’ve been a bit mia lately. Lots going on!

We listed our house on the MLS. So if you know anyone looking for a home in the Northern MA/Southern NH area, we have a great 3 bedroom for sale. We’ve had two showings already this week(our first week listed) and just scheduled another one for Sat. The house looks great, I’m so happy with how it came out, now if only someone else loves it too :0). We do have our eye on a house right now and are waiting for some questions to be answered so we can hopefully move forward on it. Such a big waiting game.

Baby K was re-evaluated for Early Intervention yesterday. They sent out 4 ladies to evaluate her. The observe and interact with her to determine if she is on par or behind. I’ve been concerned with her speech/language and I was right! Her Receptive Language is behind by about 8 months. Meaning she’s not understanding what we are asking of her. Which makes me feel a lot better considering she doesn’t seem to “get it” especially when you try to correct her or redirect her. No just doesn’t work. It can be really frustrating because she always goes back for more…. that could end up being really dangerous, especially since she doesn’t stay with you in public, walking is not a choice for her. So I’m really interested to see how this process goes and to see her improve. We start next week.

This is Kyla’s first week home in a year of having school. She’s doing really well. Hasn’t even asked about going to school. Though we’ve been busy, playdates and such. She’s actually at a friend’s house right now. I’ll be signing her up for Soccer here next week. I want to check out a class first. I’m wanting to put her in the next class, she’s almost the right age and I feel she would be fine. So we’ll see.

Preston has been doing really well. He has baseball and hockey, plus school. He keeps us busy on a daily basis.

I’ve just been keeping the house clean and keeping order in the house, HA. But for the most part just keeping up with everyone.

Jarod’s been busy at work and helping around the house. He’s been helping out at the baseball clinic that Preston goes to and he still plays soccer twice a week.

Now I’m off to finish cleaning out the fridge and hopefully get Baby K down for a nap while Kyla is away so I can get some other cleaning done.

so we’ve had a tummy bug the last few days. Not to bad but enough to be annoying. Hopefully we are clear of it now and can move on to getting things done.

We’ve been working on the house. Still cleaning it up and out to see if we can list it soon.

Finally talked with Baby K’s case worker from DCF, nothing new, just more waiting…. soon, hopefully, we’ll know what’s going on!

Preston started his Baseball clinic last week. He’s having fun and Preston’s coach last from last year talked(which probably wasn’t too hard) Jarod into helping out…. it’s good for him ;0).

Preston is still enjoying Hockey. He even got to bring home the trophy they won from their Xmas tournament… very proud! The coaches lets a different kid take the trophy home each week :0).

Kyla has her last day of school tomorrow but is excited to start Soccer. Otherwise she’s just being a big help around the house.

Baby K is a ball of fire ;0). She’s a busy busy girl. Loves climbing right now, especially on to the top of the dining room table!! I’m a bit concerned about her speech/language so she is going to be re-evaluated by Early Intervention next week. She also had a sibling visit last week, she and her brother got along great and even played together.
