Big step back

Both boys struggled with therapy today. Summy went back to his repetitive "looping" patterns, and Jack cried he got so frustrated with himself. I admit, I was pretty freaking frustrated myself.

There's always tomorrow, right? It can't always be sunshine blowing up my ass, I suppose...

Hunter was doing great with his SLP he has been with for like 6 months now and all the sudden began throwing huge fits half way through and crying for the reat of the session for two weeks in a row but the past couple of sessions havent been as bad. Hugs and hope for a better time next time.; July 13, 2009 at 11:46 PM

The story of how the tader tots came to be

When I started this blog, I originally thought it was going to be a taderbaby...we chose the nickname after the delicious spuds served at Young's Jersey Dairy...but quickly found out it was tader tots! At 28 weeks gestation my placenta started abrupting and I was briefly hospitalized, then put on strict bedrest. At 31w 4d I was let up for an hour a day. At 32w on the dot, I was re-admitted for bleeding and began a four day fight to stop labor which I lost on 2.15.07 when Jack's placenta abrupted fully. If I hadn't been at the hospital, we wouldn't have made it. Upon birth, Jack's apgar was 3. The boys spent 4 weeks in NICU and this is their story, and mine.
