me and kaelin picture was taken on 12/23.... Kaelin is doing much better. he was pretty sick for a bit, Elijah to is over his sickness... seems like Leo isn't feeling well today, been sleeping and laying around... kaelin goes on 12/30 for his 2 month check up he is huge, I AM so curious as to what he weighs now....will update then... oh and he smiles and laughs he is so happy now that he isn't sick.
I haven't blogged in so long I need to write about my Leos New teacher, Mr. Torres, he truly is a blessing! He is helping Leo in great ways, like for instance, Leo would never ever use a spoon to eat with he would simply throw it to the floor and use his hands or have a tantrum, but now as you see in the picture he is using his spoon and this is b/c Mr. Torres has reached Leo like no one else has been able to do, I am so ecstatic and can't wait to see more of the improvements and accomplishments to come.... Leo is even interacting with his peers....
ok where in the world does the time go? its been a month already... its so hard to believe...
Halloween was pretty layed back here this year, we stayed in and handed out candy, the bigger kids took Leo and Elijah trick or treating, Elijah was a cute lion he went for the suckers which made me so nervous I was so affraid of him choking... But he loved them... Leo was woody from toy story, he was so cute and didn't eat any of the candy, but he enjoyed walking around the neighborhood with his older brothers and Elijah....
lol no real blog to mention but I just wanted to show off my Elijah bugar... he is mommies
well again I had to go to the school and have a conference about my son, he is so full of anxiety when it comes to school...I got his Dr. involved this time and I had him talk to the ese coordinator for our county and I called the head ese coordinator for Florida, I expressed my concerns with his teacher and the fact he is main streamed, I requested he change teachers and be put in with the ese children, I think its real dumb any way to try and main stream a newly diagnosed autistic child, I WAS VERY UPSET but I researched and researched educating special need children I learned what I could and presented my thoughts and ideas to the school, ultimately we decided to put Leo in the ese class, where he should have started out in the first place, he has started injuring himself even more that ever,scratches his self hits self, it is so horrible to watch, I try to restrain him but sometimes you can't get to him quick enough...
This is Jared my 3rd born... tonight he played football for his school the first game of the year.
They played at home, and he kicked booty,lol his jersey # is 15 he plays quarterback and on the defense. He was quite awesome he recovered some fumbles, made a few tackles, but his glory came when he threw a 35 yard TD pass... ultimely it was taken back, but still he did his part, the TD was taken back due to a foul by one of Jared's team mates as he had a personal foul called on him...they played the Fort White Indians 30-0 final score in favor of the Mighty Trojans... woohoo go Trojans!
well Leo started school on 8/18,it was a Monday and he didn't want to stay but I left him any ways, much to my dismay I had barely returned home, and my husband met me at the door and told me to head back to the school to get Leo as he had hurt himself, I drove the 10 miles back to pick him up, he was so upset and he had literally scratched his face, neck side and buttocks with his fingers. I took him home I was so upset, how could those teachers allow him to hurt himself? I decided till we had a sit down meeting I would not return him to school.
Introducing you to Kaelin Kohl Walker.... yes I am having my final Boy! I am very excited about this,I also must say that I feel blessed to have this child as I did have a tubal reversal and I have been blessed with 3 post TR babies... the arrival date will be around Oct 24th via C-section.
AWW MY ELIJAH is getting so big(18 months old), he imitates every thing he sees, from throwing the ball to house cleaning he sweeps with his own little broom, and he helps put the clothes in the dryer, but I usually wont let me take the clothes out b/c I do not want him to get burnt...
WANTING TO SAHRE: some happy news, this is me picture was taken just today.
Now time to meet Elijah, he was born on Feb.16TH.I had to have a C-section with him due to the fact he weighed 10 pounds 9 oz. and didn't seem to moving down any and b/c he wass quite big both the Dr. and I decided it was best.Elijah is or little comedian and boy he is he smart, it took him ablout a day or so to learn to walk he was walking at about 10 months old.
His favorite pass time is to play in the sand.He is very comical as he mimicks eveyone...his brother had to do push ups as a punishment, so Elijah mocked him and did his on kinda push ups. He just makes us all laugh.He is 17 months old he weighs 29 pounds and is 34 inches long, big guy,uh?
He was named after my grandfather whom I have never met. Elijah is so full of energy and spunk and doesn't like the word no but what toddler does right? Continue to watch my blog for more updates on Elijah.I am so amazed at just how smart he is, he truly makes my heart smile!
Now on to my fourth...as you can see by the age gap Leo came much later in life, let me elaborate if I may... In 2004 my husband Michael and myself decided to have children one problem my tubes were tied... we researched tubal reversals and decided to take the risk and boy did it pay off...lol I got pregnant with Leo July 2004 I was scared as complications can arise after a post TUBAL REVERSAL, I held my breath that all would be fine, I had a pretty easy pregnancy no huge complications Leo was born at 3:10 am on April 4,2005... I was elated with Joy... Leos seemed to develop normally, but at the age of 15 months we knew something was not right with our little boy, we took him to specialist and had him evaluated he received an MRI and it was finally determined he has autism.Leo's smile and laughter brings much comfort to us, when we receive affection from him its like getting a bag of gold, he can't us verbal words but he uses his hands,eyes and heart to speak to us and we hear him loud and clear... Leo loves to swing on his swing set or splash in his pool, or watch his favorite Disney Movie Cars On TV... He loves his dad
Now for my 2nd Born Mikey, he was a challenge to bring into the world,he weighed 10 pounds and 11 oz. and graced the world with a broken collar bone. at the tender age of 3 he was pronounced to have autistic like tendencies, he was never officially labeled, he did not speak until he was 5, or any real communication.
