well it's been quite a busy week for us. Emma finally went back to Physical Therapy on Monday. She did amazing too!! She did some steps and she was riding a bike(with a little help)

I can't wait for the next time we have therapy. Maybe she will do better. Her therapist also asked if we had gotten Emma's canes in yet. I'm like nope. No phone cal yet. She wants Emma to be able to practice using them at home so she can get better with them.

Wednesday was a busy day for us. Kayla only had half day of school since in the evening it was Open House. Emma still had her usual half day hours so hers didn't get messed up. I spent the morning running around getting the girls to school and picking them up. Kayla had counseling after school as well. We're not going to see Robin until the first week of October now since Kayla gets surgery this coming up week and the week after Robin will be on vacation. When we go back to see her, she said we would sit and discus our next step which could mean we are done doing the counseling or we may have one more visit. Kayla's "problems" have been getting so much better. So we'll see how things go if we do stop doing counseling.

Wednesday evening the girls had open house at their schools. We went to Kayla's school first. Her teachers told us she's doing great and she's so quiet in class. I'm like well where's that quiet child at home??? She got her progress report which doesn't have actual grades on it like a report card. She is doing well though

 We were looking through her graded papers and we had to laugh at one of them.

The kids had to read the little story on the worksheet, then answer the questions on the other side. Well Kayla decided to be a smart ass on one question and write "I don't know" when the answer was on the back of the worksheet. Me and Joey laughed so hard about that.

After Kayla's open house, we headed over to Emma's school. We ended up not going because there was nowhere to park at all. Even on the street. I'm like we get updates on her everyday, so I wasn't majorly concerned with going to the open house for her.

Thursday, Emma brought home some papers for me to fill out and a little homework assignment. I'm like homework??? She's in preschool! It's something that will help her out though.

We have to lay the flashcards out in front of her and help her to identify her name. Once she has her name down, we can let her figure out her classmates names.

Let's rewind a bit now. On Tuesday I had finally got the phone call for Emma's canes. They came in! A day after therapy but that's okay. So we made an appointment to pick them up on Friday. Friday came around and we went up after taking Kayla to school since Emma didn't have school Friday.

She was styling with her new canes. Yes, they are hot pink! They are awesome looking. I was a little worried she might have some trouble with the base being very wide but.....

It's going to take some time for her to master these canes like she has mastered her walker. I can't wait when she finally does get the hang of things.

Next week we have a busy first two days. On Monday, we're seeing Dr. Hardesty who is Emma's Orthopaedic doctor. Her PT wanted us to make an appointment because she was a little concerned with Emma's right knee. She suggested maybe getting an athletic sleeve for her knee so she doesn't twerk it or injure it in any way. So I had the guy measure Emma's leg on Friday so we didn't have to make another trip out there to just get measured. We requested a pink one. He said to just give the script to the person who will be there on Monday! Tuesday is tonsil surgery for Kayla. That's going to be a long day! Wish us luck then!
