We had a super fun week...HOT...but super fun!

Neither of us had anything scheduled, so this week was 100% pure vacation! We went to the park a bunch, played out front, just had a blast.

Everything culminated in our RV trip at the end of the week. We were supposed to leave on Thursday and stay until Saturday. We were gonna leave after mom's meeting at Regional Center. The meeting was pretty strange, I guess. The doctor that mom talked to was pretty harsh, not really informed of my life circumstances, and not really interested in hearing mom explain why exactly she was there. Instead, he was accusatory, brash, and all around nasty. He even made mom cry! I guess towards the end of the meeting things turned around a bit and mom finally got a chance to ask for help. So, they came up with a plan of sorts to get my pediatrician on board with prescribing OT through our insurance. Once we see what our insurance will do, we'll see what we may need from Regional Center. Hopefully nothing, 'cuz it seems like that's about what their willing to give us!

Anyhow, we left Friday for the RV park. It was super fun. Our campsite was only a few steps away from the playground, a few yards from a lake, and surrounded by huge trees. The bummer...as the day grew on, it got hotter and hotter. So hot it got (pardon the rhyming, we're on a big Dr.Seuss kick these days!), that we actually had to leave late day and head for home. It was too hot to play on the playground equipment, too hot too walk around...TOO DARN HOT TO DO ANYTHING! The good news, we're getting much better at planning/packing/transitioning. We also know we like this park so we'll go there again in the fall.

Today was dad's last day of vacation. We had a great day. We hung out in the RV, then took a spontaneous RV "trip" to the park down the street! Winston got to go, and everything! We played in the water, on the playground, it was just awesome. When we got home mom went out and got us Del Taco and we all ate and watched TV in the RV until it was time for nap. What a fun day!

So, no complaints this week....it was AWESOME! Hope you had even half as great a week as we did! Oh, and Phil is still going strong....like I said, a GREAT week!

Here's some video of Nixi eating breakfast. You can see her use sign language when she asks for more (touching fingers from both hands together), as well as asking verbally for donuts!
