Well its not even 2 O'clock and im WIPED. Partially because i didnt go to sleep till about 3am last night.
Jaiden woke up a cheerful cherub and all was well until Liam handed Lachie a shoe and apparently Jaiden wanted too... Then all hell broke loose.
An hour later he finally stopped screaming (short attention span pah!)and it was time to drive to Oma's and drop off big and little so i could take middle to the "ferry fopters" aka speech therepist. I played some Bob Dylan (Jai LOVES Bob Dylan) on the way and he calmed down to a meditive thumb sucking state only making squeaking noises at me everytime the CD paused while the song changed.
When we got there he was fine until he got out of the car, Bob stopped and suddenly he realised where we were, then the screaming started again this time "dont WANT ferryfopters!!", and i made a mental note to get an old walkman from somewhere and put old Bob onto tape...
At least where we go to get therepy Jaiden can carry on like a pork chop and the only 'looks' you get are sympathetic ones. After dragging Jaiden up the long hallway to the room, and some basketball as an ice breaker we convinced him to sit down at the table. For approx 2 1/2 min, more screaming, 15min and more basketball bribes later we gave up and went home. The ST is the most understanding lady to have delt with Jai thus far and has already seen his Angel and Devil personality switches, she is the one who has quick smart refered us to an OT and a Psychologist. Unfortunatly the waiting list for OT is 6months and the waiting list for Psych is much the same - i am going to go back to the GP next week and tell her if she cant find a way of getting Jai into Psych ASAP i am going to need it myself!
Straight after the appointment we had a photo session booked for all three little darlings (i dont know where my head was when i booked that time slot!) I have already rescheduled twice and so i decided to go despite Jai's mood - He was HORRIBLE on the way there, PERFECT for the shoot and HORRIBLE while i picked my packages and all the way home. At least the photo's looked great!

Can't wait to see the new pictures!
How is Bowie doing?
Glad to hear the pictures worked out. It is hard to get a picture of all of my kids together. Someone is always not in the picture taking mood! Usually not Abi though...you stick a camera in her face and she smiles and poses!!
Hope some relief comes with the therapies. It is hard to get them in a routine, once they get it they usually do better. Hope you have that luck!

Erik has cried through all of his photo sessions but the photos somehow turned out gorgeous. Those photographers are magicians.
Hi Heather :)
Bowie is ok... the vet gave him some steroids which pepped him up a bit, its probably cancer but there is not really much point testing... He is slower everyday but still happy to be with the family.
Where's the pic!?!?! Upload, please :)
