Yes, I am aware I have been blowing you off. The little ticker down there keeps rolling with every blog hit, and I have been standing you all up. I'm sorry.
It's just that life, well, it's been flying by.
I probably could have blogged a hundred times about all of the adventures we've been on this month. But all you're going to get is snippets. Sorry.
Late Summer bike rides are the best, unless you are my husband who has to haul two children (who should both be old enough to ride their own bikes) in the kiddie wagon. Then again, when part of me wishes W could ride a bike on his own, part of me realizes if he could he would be pedaling across the state line before we knew he was gone.
Best family outing in a long time. During the 7th inning stretch Caden said, "We have been here 7 whole innings and Waylon hasn't had a single meltdown." In the Katzer family, that's nothing short of a miracle. Obviously, his patience had grown thin by the end of the game family pic. But who cares, right? It was a good day.
Caden and Rose Mary were thrilled to be headed back to school...
Waylon was not.
Day #2- much better.
Saw an autism article in a magazine at the Doctor's office last week... not really what I wanted to start off my day with. Again, with
the depressing headlines and the incessant head counts. These people are going to give me stomach ulcers.
But then I had to stop the van in the driveway on my way home to greet the mob of fans running towards me and screaming my name... and I forgot all about that stupid article.
Waylon, who loves french fries but hates kid's meal toys, fell in love with a pair of shades from his Sonic kid's meal last week. Somedays, when all you want is your kid to be just a little bit normal, him liking a kids meal toy will make you feel like you've won the lottery. For just a few dollars, he looked like a million bucks, and I felt like a million bucks. What a cool kid.
And then yesterday we took a trip to the doctor's office to meet the Gummy Bear. We pulled the kids out of school early for a "treat" and they were ticked because it was kickball day in PE and they had to miss it. Go figure. (The first of many things their baby brother/sister is going to ruin for them.) And then the sonographer had a hard time catching certain pictures because she said, "We sure have a busy little baby!"
Oh, dear....
