First part of the year . . .

Well long time no see! I've been a little M.I.A. on here. Not sure why really . . . I guess no news is good news? All in all things have been good for Mr. G man. School is going really good . . . no behaviors issues (does having time out in the office yesterday count?) . . . just behind a little academically. 

Here is my attempt at summarizing the first part of 2015. :) 

He continues to lose teeth! He has lost 4 total. This one was in a hotel room. It litterally just fell out it was so loose. 

Gregory has a new baby sister! His dad and step mom had a baby. He loves being a big brother. 

Still going to our favorite place for sorbet, The Gelato Spot. 

The super bowl was here this year. We got to go to the NFL experience. It was . . . an experience. Good thing our friend gave us free tickets because it was a little too stimulating for Gregory. We did not last very long. 

Dinner with friends . . . 

Bed time dictionary reading (lol) . . . . 

Getting strep twice in one month . . . first time was all of spring break. 

Opening his first savings account . . . 

Dying Easter eggs . . . 

More In N Out . . . 

Field trips to Butterfly Wonderland . . . 

Cleaning the table after dinner in your underwear . . . 

Big surf . . . 

So far its been a great year. I am glad the school year ends this Friday. I'm looking forward to not being on such a schedule, more time with my boy, not packing lunches and just relaxing more. Hope you all have a great summer!!

New school.

Hi all! So A LOT has been going on with Gregory at school. I've been a little too overwhelmed to do a post . . . and new things keep happening. I will try and give you the readers digest version. 

Its been a little over a month now . . . Gregory has always struggled with some behavioral issues at school . . . they have just really escalated. After several meetings with his teachers and thearpists . . . trying new things . . . changing his IEP . . . a couple more meetings . . . we have decided he needs a more self contained classroom. His current school does not have something like this. Only 2 other schools in the district offer something like this for Gregory. One just happens to be right down the street from my house and its actually where I went to school K-6th grade. :) 

He will be in a classroom with one teacher and two aids. There will only be 10 other kids. It seems like a very contained, positive, strict, structured, fun classroom. They can deal with and accommodate all the things Gregory struggles with. The whole goal is to get them back into a main stream classroom. They get the behaviors under control first and when they are ready they let them back into a mainstream classroom little bits at a time. They also join another kindergarten class to go to specials and lunch with. One of his neighborhood friends is in this classroom. So, he already has a friend. :)

I think it will be really great. I'll keep you guys posted. Thanks for listening!
