A successful use of the potty
On the 6th, Baby Girl pulled off her diaper, walked over to the potty, sat on it and peed.
I was very impressed.
It was only the 3rd time she's gone on the potty and the first time it was entirely of her own volition.
The other two times were because I could tell her was about to go so I put her on (once on her 2nd birthday and on one other occasion).
Today she and Little Man have pediatrician appointments.

I have been sadly neglecting this blog
Anyway, on Dec 4th we had dinner at Little Man's godparents and our wee Lamb was being held by her Uncle Jeebus when she reached towards me and said, "MumMuma."
It was so distinct and did not seem to be related to food and I commented on it to make sure everyone else had heard.
Since then she has been saying that and "Dada" at T. and myself on a regular basis!!!
And here's a video of her working on standing in the crib:
Also, we took some family photos and this is the one we chose for our Xmas cards - though since I did them late - they are only going to family since I can deliver them in person...

The Good and the Bad
The Good:
Lambikins pulled herself to a stand all by herself in her crib last night!!! Unfortunately I did not get a pic of the event but I'll post a cute pic of her I took the other day...
The Bad:
Little Man has been having issues with acting out at school, dealing with being bullied and now, apparently, bullying someone else.
He wrote a very inappropriate note this week and I had a call from the VP about it. Last time I spoke to the VP it was about ANOTHER note he wrote a few wks ago.
The first note was a list of swear words. Little Man said he wrote them down to prove that he knew them because some of the other boys were picking on him because he wasn't "saying swears."
The second note really disturbed me because he wrote about doing violence against another child.
When Little Man comes home today I am going to have to have a serious talk with him.
I am feeling really exasperated.
I get confused as to how much of this is or could be related to his autism and how much is just him being an 8-year-old boy.
And the bizarre thing is, Little Man is one the smallest kids in his class (of the boys AND the girls).
I have been thinking about looking into having him switch schools, but there are bullies and bad influences EVERYWHERE.
Little Man asked if I could home-school him but I don't know that I would consider that an option for him or not... I don't know that I have the patience for that and then I would worry about the lessened socialization since that is so important for a child on the spectrum.
Right now I am just LOST!
But here's a pic of my Little Man that I took the other day:
(see how adorable he is?)

On a wintery day
This morning T. took the two big kids to meet Women's Hockey Gold medal winners, Cheryl Pounder and Becky Kellar.
Once home, we put 8-month-old Lambikins into her snowsuit (size 18 - 24 months) and brought her outside to check out the snow.
Here are some pics...

First Halloween for Lambikins!
Yes here it is, Halloween.
I was thinking about putting Lam's Star Trek onesie on underneath her warm baby giraffe costume but the Star Trek onesie is currently missing and I don't even have a photo of her in it (maybe one on my phone but I can't figure out how to get pics off my super-old phone onto the damn com!)
Son is going out as Green Lantern this year (last year he was Captain Kirk) and we don't have Rhyme Girl this year since she's at her Mom's.
But I am going to post a pic of the kids from the past 2 Halloweens just because.

It's been tiring around here
The wee lamb isn't sleeping well, Little Man is staging a revolt against wearing coats, Rhyme Girl has been at her Mom's and due to my MIL being in hospital the other week and some other things going on, we had arranged with mother-of-RG to have Rhyme Girl this wkend but then MORG insisted we'd never arranged that and that she has other plans and such so no RG this wkend :(
Lamb has 3 teeth so far and I've finally been able to snap a pic that at least reveals the bottom 2.
We've gone for a few nice walks on a nearby trail lately and, in other news, Little Man got his form stripe in Kung Fu.so he just needs a 2nd stripe and then he can participate in the next grading (which happens in Nov).
OK back to my MIL -- she's doing really well, perhaps miraculously so, considering how bad it got for her.
That was really, really scary.
T. and I attended two autism-related seminars in the past bit re: Little Man though due to a scheduling change that I wasn't informed of I did not get to attend the non-violent crisis intervention training and I now have to wait until the end of January for it to be offered again (they are carrying fwd my deposit).
Next wk I am doing CPR training Mon and Tues night (as President of our Board of Directors here at the co-op, the costs are covered).
I have a Board meeting on Thursday and am also busy on Wed so T is in charge of the kids next wk in the evenings.

My little Lamb is getting bigger
She's starting to giggle - though I don't have very good video of it.
And she does this really funny thing where she lifts both her legs into the air and then thumps them down. It's amusing when she's awake but she also does it in her sleep and that is something I find downright hilarious!!
The other thing is her increased "story-telling" - where she gabs away making all sorts of cute sounds that Little Man sometimes thinks are actual words.
What makes me laugh the most is when, after being breast-fed, she decides she wants to have a serious conversation with my breast. So she'll grab me and then start babbling with a serious look on her face, pause, smile, babble some more et cetera.
Extremely adorable stuff!
