This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

Monday

Well, I got my days mixed up and thought speech was coming today so I got most everything done by 11 and she didn't come. Maybe it is tomorrow? It is hard for me to keep up with them all. PT is supposed to come tomorrow afternoon. Thurs. a.m. I have scheduled a ride with Med Shore Ambulance Service to transport Preston to the neurosurgeon. I will ride also. I think Dr. Johnson will be quite pleased with how he is doing. He tried to eat a little this evening, but couldn't. I guess his brain is just not ready yet. He wants too, though, he asked what we were having for supper. I grilled squash and eggplant and he thought that sounded so good.

Preston certainly hasn't had any trouble urinating today! He has run us wild trying to keep him changed. I told him tomorrow we will try the urinal. I told him I will quit putting a diaper on him, so he will tell me when he has to go. I am having to potty train him all over again, and I am so tired! But I love him to death and will do my best for him, while encouraging him to do his best too. When he was a baby he wanted to be changed immediately when he wet and he is still the same way.

I had to go to the hospital to get meds. for Preston. They owed me some and I had to go there and get it, this evening, and stopped by the grocery store. It got me out of the house for a little while. But usually by evening, I am too tired to go anywhere.

Going to get to bed early tonight. I have one more feeding to give Preston and get my shower.

Aaron is almost 7 and still in diapers. I can't imagine changing a 19 year old. Best of luck with "re" potty training!
