~~MAYBE OUR HOUSE DOESN'T EAT SOCKS AFTER ALL~~

I have spent most of the morning...attempting to find mates to socks in our house! I was sure that our house ate socks for breakfast, lunch and dinner! EM has many pairs of socks, but the last 2 Sundays he has not had any dark socks to wear and his white socks seemed to have disappeared as well. SJ has been wearing "pairs of socks" one is pink the other purple! Sad truth is none of the kids seem to have any socks that match! Well, after cleaning out EM, SJ and MR's beds...in them and under them...EM now has 15 pairs of white socks...3 pairs of dark socks. All of MR's socks have mates and well SJ has some that match, but still has the Purple and pink set!! At least they look nice together! I think the new rule needs to be each night when you take your socks off they go into a laundry bag...so they make it to the washer at the same time!! We will see how that goes.
I just sent EM and SJ outside to play. It is a balmy 32 degrees here, so they should enjoy a good amount of time out there! Thankfully they play well together. As long as I can keep EM away from the sticks!
We are doing well. JM is now eating his cereal and veggies from a spoon. It is messy...and he isn't sure what to do with his tongue...but he does let it near his face and that is a huge improvment! He likes his whole milk and seems to be partial to squash! Hopefully he will start to explore other foods soon!
EM had a rough day at speech yesterday. His therapist asked if they expected things to get "worse, before the improve" I thought...not that I know of. Well thankfully when we got home he reported he had a couple of sores in his mouth. Mainly under his tongue. That seems to be the reason he wasn't using his tongue when he was talking! Hopefully that will improve soon.
I work tonight. Hopefully I will get a nap before I go in. JM is an early riser and I don't do well going from 6AM till 8 AM tomorrow! Wish me luck. All for now!
