Family Update

It has been a busy time in my household and I have not posted here in a while! Samuel seems to be very much in need of extra sensory activity these days; he is running, jumping, and flopping around. He also seems to be very much on edge and I am not sure why. He is growing in leaps and bounds, he is almost 5 feet tall now..only 6 inches shorter than I am! I am grateful to have plenty of assistance and advice from his Occupational Therapists, who are recommending lots of sensory breaks during his day. We now have 2 therapy balls for him to bounce on and I just replaced a broken mini-trampoline. I had been letting him jump on my bed but he is getting treacherously close to hitting the ceiling when he jumps!

I have discovered Face Book, which is probably contributing to my lack of posting here. Wow, is that addictive! It has been fun connecting with friends in my area and with people I haven't seen or talked to in ages.

Our family is preparing for a trip down to Colonial Williamsburg and Virginia Beach, where my husband and I were living when we met and first got married. I am hoping to get a good taste of spring while there; it arrives a few weeks earlier there than up here in the northern part of the state.

I am sorry that I haven't visited other blog friends so much lately but I hope to do so soon!

I am on Facebook too.
One of my blog readers found me LOL. I love facebook.

I work and school too much to blog very much anymore.
I still try though.
I just find it hard to keep up.

Hi,
Stop by my blog : ) I just did a sensory room in our home and bought a whole bunch of sensory tools for our son. He has a lot of sensory needs and even has a sensory schedule at school. I'd love to hear more about what kinds of sensory issues your son has and how you deal with them.
