Therapy, Transitions, and Parties!



It's been another crazy week at the Pardo house!
Tuesday I took Ace to Bista Autism Center. It was in the same building as the doctor that diagnosed him. It was hard at first being in that court yard again. Remembering that day made me sick to my stomach. But then I thought no need to dwell on the past when we have such a hopeful future! Being there again just showed me of how far we have come and how well Ace is doing. His intake went well. I got a tour of the building and classrooms. Everyone there was so nice and they loved Ace. He did great during his evaluation and hopefully I did well on mine. lol They are going to call us when they have our results and we will set up another meeting when Jack can be present and they will give us our treatment plan.

Wednesday was busy with speech and occupational therapy for Ace. It was also the first day Ace slept in his new big boy bed! Jack and I were preparing for the worst! But luckily he never comes out of his room and he doesn't leave his bed! He is so excited and we are so proud of our little buddy! Jack and I are now crib less for the first time! lol We are very excited about that!

Thursday both of the beebs have school. I dropped off Charlotte and realized that she was the only one that wasn't wearing a costume. Apparently, I hadn't been told they were having a Harvest Party! Char just looked up at me with those big brown eyes and I felt like the worst mommy ever! I told her I would be right back! I dropped off Ace at school and ran to the store. I found a Cat accessory kit, some cookies, juice boxes, plates, and an eyeliner. I went back to her school and had the owner pull her out of her class. When I showed her the cat costume I knew I was redeemed! She was so excited. I put it on her, drew on a nose and whiskers then let her have a peek in the bathroom. I felt so much better when she skipped off to class. She had a great time. I got to listen to her tell me all about it while she sipped hot coco with marshmallow's after dinner.
