Halloween Party and People For Theo

Tuesday, October 24th:

I got home just in time to meet Josh and Theo at PT/OT. We then headed over to The Legacy Ranch for Theo's horseback riding lessons. They added in another cushion and he was able to rest his head comfortably on them. When Sherman first started walking Theo started giggling! It was adorable!


Theo didn't have any observable seizures today.

Wednesday, October 25th:

I always feel like I need a day to recover from my vacations, but alas, I had to get back into our normal routine pretty quickly.

Josh headed off to work, I put Theo on the bus, and I went to the Dermatologist.

There is a freeze coming, so I wanted to document my beautiful flowers before they move on for the winter. I also love our bright red fire bushes and our maple tree that are changing colors.




After school Theo had feeding/speech therapy with Ms. Jen and a Zoom with Ms. Jeannine his dietitian. We are still taking it easy with the feeds until Theo's new allergy medication kicks in. We are hoping that will help with his post nasal drip and acid reflux.

Theo had 13 observable seizures today.

Thursday, October 26th:

After Theo headed off to school I went to Mobility Works to get our van serviced. It's a good idea to keep the auto doors and ramp maintained.

After that I headed to Crumbl to get some cookies for Theo's School Halloween Party tomorrow.

After school Theo went to OT and did really well with reaching and opening his hands.

Theo had 14 observable seizures today.

Friday, October 27th:

Can you guess who Theo is dressed up as for his Halloween Party?!





[He was trying really hard not to smile!]

He's Max from A Goofy Movie! Too cute huh?!

Theo went to school on the bus and then Josh and I met him at the school at 12:45 PM for the hour long party. It was adorable! They had all these stations set up where the kids could do crafts.


After school we took Theo to PT where he worked super hard at standing with Ms. Cody.

I want to say thank you to all the people who participated in our 4th Annual Walk Your Way for VOGM awareness. Ms. Jess was the MVP! She went through the school and got everyone to participate! AND she got her family to participate too! Thank you so much to everyone for your love and support.

Go here if you want to learn more about VOGM and what the non profit is doing to help these warriors get care.

Theo had to do two nights with the pulse ox. He wasn't a fan of having the sticker on his toe, but we gotta make sure his oxygen levels are good.


[Kisses from dada makes it all better ❤️]

We lost a talented guy this weekend. FRIENDS is my go-to comfort show and Chandler Bing is a hoot. I know Matthew Perry struggled for a long time with drugs and alcohol. It nearly killed him many times in the past. I appreciate how open he was about his addiction. He wanted to share his story in the hopes that other people would see that they weren't alone in their struggles. He was a good guy and he will be missed ❤️ RIP

The tall black building next to the Plaza is the Solow Building. The Solow Building is Chandler Bings office building, so we took pictures in front of it doing the "Chandler smile!"


Thanks for making us laugh ❤️
