Completely Random

We are getting to the end of summer and ready to begin fall. Both kids still enjoy school so much, which is truly a blessing! Abigail received an award for being a peacemaker at school last week. They are trying to get a Daisy Scout troop going which she will be a part of. We also signed her up to learn different soccer drills, which she is very excite about. She is pretty good with a soccer ball. So hopefully she will enjoy this and maybe look into indoor soccer for her this fall if it works out. She LOVES to work on her homework from school, I wonder how long that will last and she has made many new friends. She has a wonderful teacher, which I am very thankful for b/c I know that has to take a lot of patience. She has been sick some with cold/sinus stuff hopefully her immune system will build up and she will stay healthy through the winter months. She's doing good!
Austin absolutely LOVES school. There is such a great team of dedicated people who work with these kids and they are wonderful. I couldn't be more happy about where he is at with school. His favorite is music therapy and music class. He loves music that much! They also do computer programs he watches on the computer that he really enjoys too. He gets lots of therapy throughout the day with the different therapist, which is so good for him. He did battle last week some respiratory issues, dealing with lots of low oxygen sats. and wheezing. So we bumped up his breathing treatments and this week he seems much better. We are not sure if it was from a virus, asthma stuff, or allergies. He is hard to tell which one it was. He right now is managing his crohn's disease and hasn't had to many issues with that. We just have to keep his bowels regular. It will be interesting to see how he does as the ween down again on his steroid that he's on to help his colon. Hopefully all will go well. Really, so far he's doing pretty good and I hope he continues to do really well!
