Day 59 (1st Grade)

So today I had the kids all to myself coming off of a partial weekend of just me and the kids. Beto was picked up on Saturday by his brother Cuco and they went up to Chicago to spend some brother time together with their brother Joe to watch the fights. So I had the kids for the remainder of Saturday, all of Sunday, and this morning I got the kids up and ready all solo.  I totally rocked it this morning...I was able to get the boys completely ready breakfast included and was able to pull off shaving and showering...all this before Roberto had to be taken to school!!! Oh and double bonus...the kids got their baths and laundry is done!!! I feel uber productive!!! Today I have my last therapy appointment and then another assessment of my ankle before anything else is done. Hopefully an MRI will finally be ordered because nothing has really changed in the two weeks since I saw the specialist last. I'm just tired of no answers...I swear online possible diagnosis are a lot more helpful than what the doctors have been!!!

Oops I Did It Again (Days 52-58)(1st Grade)

Sorry...this is probably getting repetitive, but my mom brain has been taking over and I've been cleaning since I'm still not back to work. So my updates have been falling behind. I've had 4 sessions of physical therapy to try to help my ankle; however, my ankle still remains tight and unable to fully move it.

Lots of Days (36-51) (1st Grade)

Okay well those of you who know my well and followed the posts from Roberto's year in Kindergarten should know that this is so not typical for me to have missed all these days of blogging. So to say the least I am totally miffed at myself for not keeping up better. Don't fret though because it was a pretty blah set of days...Highlights though are as follows lots of therapy to try to improve my ankle (which has been deemed by the foot specialist as not fully healed and is needing another 2 weeks of therapy), a wedding at Starved Rock for my cousin (which was really fun), almost a week spent with my sister Chrissy (who was in with her fiancee for a week), and a cousin's 18th birthday party (which I spent chillin with the 2nd youngest daughter looking at funny pics online). We had a fun Halloween with the kids and I will post pics later on my facebook. Also, we had many a fun trips to our 2 favorite parks and some fun time at the mall's kid's area and restaurant play places. So now we are officially in November and we will see what mischief we can stay out of!!!
