I'm being a bad mommy right at this very moment. I'm letting Spencer watch a movie until bedtime. It will be the first time he's ever watched anything longer than Sesame Street and even an entire Sesame Street is a rare occasion. Usually it's a little 20 minute episode and then back to playing. However tonight I am exhausted. Mike has therapy and decided to work straight until it was time to go, so he won't be home until 730 or so. Okay, I'm actually curious how long he can sit and watch tv, so I'm calling this an experiment lol.
It was another good day. Jen said that this was Spencer's best day ever at therapy. His previous best day ever was Monday, so I guess progress is being made. I snuck out of the room just a few moments after we entered and Spencer didn't even notice. So I guess we've begun the part where I'm not with them. I knew it was coming. I'm just a distraction. He held Jen's hand today. He hasn't been willing to do that before. So he's beginning to trust her. Today was the third time in a row with the same person, so the consistency is definitely paying off.
Spencer was great with my mom too. She said he gave her two hugs even. He's not very affectionate with anyone but me.
I'm feeling better. I feel like the worry is off me. I can just enjoy being a mom to two great kids.
Rachel is doing great. She had another explosive poopy, but that was what signaled the end last time, so I'm taking it as a good sign. Also, it was with my mom, so I didn't have to clean it up hehehe. She made a solid (very clearly the sweet potatoes from last night) one later. I introduced pears tonight, she really liked them.
Mike wants to play more games tonight, but I might tell him I need a night to chill. Not that I have anything else to do.
Got a playdate tomorrow morning. The house needs to be cleaned, but I don't really have the energy to do much. I'll get the bathroom cleaned. I should do that now...
