Lots Of Speech


Dearest Joshua David and Grace Elizabeth~

You two were so cute this morning!  Joshua was late getting up and Grace and I were already eating breakfast.  When Joshua came downstairs you two hugged each other and gave each other a kiss.  It was so wonderful to watch!

Once we all got ready for the day, we went out and ran errands this morning.  First, we picked up my photograph from the Fair grounds.  Yesterday was the last day of the Fair, so we saw people packing up games, rides, and food booths.  I bet you all are already looking forward to the Fair for next year!  ;-)

Then, we headed from the Fair grounds to the pharmacy to pick up Grace's prescription from the pediatrician.  She wrote for an anti fungal for her bottom since Grace had a rash.  It appears to be clearer now, but we'll still use it just in case. 

From the pharmacy, we ran a test drive to an elementary school for tomorrow's speech therapy for Joshua.  Now that you're three years old, you're being transitioned from 'early intervention' to 'preschool services' under Wake County.  Therefore, you're now eligible to have a Wake County speech therapist give you speech lessons and our tax dollars will pay for it.  ;-)  So, we'll have speech therapy at the elementary school around the corner from us on tuesdays and fridays with a woman named Gloria.  We'll also keep Quinn as long as we can at the house and Kim on mondays since we still have credits at her office.  It's going to be busy, but we'll be able to eliminate one or two sessions after a while.  So, as of right now, your appointments are:

Mon- Kim
Tues- Gloria and Quinn
Thurs- Quinn
Fri- Gloria

Busy!  Speaking on speech therapy, we headed over to see Kim right after.  We're working with three syllable words.  You did well and she gave us some more flash cards to use. 

We were home for a late lunch.  You both ate well!  Then, we went upstairs for play time.  I did 45 minutes on the exercise bike as you all played.  Then, we had story time.  We read several books and then I tried to get you two down for naps.  You all were napping by 3pm.  I took a shower and then read.  You all were awake after an hour.

Once we came downstairs, you two helped me make some chicken pot pie for dinner.  We did puzzles and drew as it was baking.  We also worked on our ABC's .... Joshua, you got a lot of them correct!  Way to go! 

This evening we had play time.  We made a new train track design with daddy.  And, we felt a lot of baby biscuit kicks.  So far she's passed her 'fetal kick count' tests.  ;-)

Sleep tight little ones!

I love you both very much!
