Long time... no post

Things have been a bit crazy around here for the past month. Too many things have happened that cannot be covered in one post. Just about the time I think things are settling down and a routine is on the horizon I am quickly put into a tailspin.

With that being said this blog gets more attention than the rest of my endeavors. The baby has been in the hospital for a couple of days now so I technically have had days off. But not really as I have had her older sister in exchange since mommy must stay with the baby and daddy still has to work.  

We have worked on baking, organizing pill time and tried to work on sleep hygiene. Not really doing the best on that, but trying real hard. I attempted making English muffins and they weren't too bad! It seems SIL really likes the ones that are sold in town at the fast food place but her SIL doesn't like to drive 25 miles for breakfast food. Her SIL also can't seem to remember to buy English muffins at the store. 

So that is how we came to experiment. I had to bake bread for lunches that day and SIL was sleeping soundly after morning meds. 

Here are photos in no particular order.

Sliced lunch bread

The first two muffins (before SIL awoke)

Baking them on the griddle

Two loaves and two more muffins, just a tad darker

But at least we kept ourselves busy while waiting to hear about the baby! We didn't taste test the muffins until today. They were pretty good!

You can see the muffins kept getting darker LOL! Still tasted good!

Well that was our week so far! That and lots of pills...

Letting her choose the order of taking them helps with reducing her anxiety.

She also checks off the list each pill she takes. It helps her learn what she is taking and allows her to participate in the process.
