Well Liam's a blubbering mess tday...so much for mother's day sigh. I think we over did yesterday; Katate testing followed by the mall (he needed long pants for the hiking excersion with the other Aspies, hfa's and ld boys. The actual even went great, he came back soaked from head to toe and big grin on his face. But today we are paying the price of it all; he's incredibly teary, demanding, (threatening his brother when he doesn'twant to play with Liam). It took a great deal to get him to his room to calm down, but he's there now. We still want to see him off risperdal, (weight gain and not convinced it's doing much if anything). Happy momma's day for me!!! Oh and Cian has scarlet fever (strep rash). la de daaa happy hour is startin' early tonight me dears;)

Oh man sorry to hear this Dee!
Wow, Cian has Scarlet Fever??? I had that when I was 10, when I lived over-seas. I was never so sick in my entire life. Watch out for Ruematic Fever (I think thats what its called). I never got it, but at first the doc thought maybe I did as I had pain in the back of my legs at the time.
I hope your day turns better :)

Well my kids tend to get strep as a rash so technically its scarlet fever; although they are like me in that don't develop a fever or have many other symptoms. I called the ped and he called in the amoxiicillin rx. I Loooove our family doc, he is so trusting of me; he knows when I say it's x y or z it usually is. In MD they'd have made me take Cian to the ER as it was a Saturday when I noticed the rash (office closed).
A for Laim...live and learn...do not over do his saturdays...I guess it's a sign he's progressing as he seems to have more fun things to do at the weekends.

With all the HUGE mood swings we have at our house, I never once considered it may be contributed by the activity level of the prior day.
Ah yes the name calling...today wasn't so bad though. these days Liam has taken to using a horrific whine that comes from the back of is throat and is more of a breathy wheezy whine...drive me insane! More and more I do have to watch how prior activities affect the next day etc. We missed church too, (Cian's infections) so don't fret. By the time we get our act together Roan will be graduating high school before we can get the child christened (our current goal is October).
Am on #4 of Captain Morgan Parrot Bay Pineapple Coconut....highly recommend it. btw: have shorts ready to go just neeed to get them all in a box and to the PO, hee...shame on me I know.

We've noticed how the prior day or even days activities can affect Mike's mood. We knew yesterday would be overstimulating and it would be tough at my inlaws today and it was. But I used his 5 point scale and Mike tried really hard to behave and keep it together. He was able to turn around behavior that in the past would have ended up with us having to leave so I was really proud of him. They do grow up don't they.
