What a whirlwind life is. Ant is having cataract surgery this morning and we have been so busy and stressed with other things I haven't even had a chance to worry. No big deal, I am sure he will be fine. Making progress in the Jaxon area. He is currently sleeping. Yep, sleeping. This is rare considering neither of us are in bed with him. Went to see an excellent doctor yesterday that specializes in combining holistic and regular medicine with unique kids. Jaxon is definitely unique. Dr. doesn't feel he is autistic. He feels there are sensory issues and a definite language problem, but doesn't feel like he is truly autistic. He exhibits the behaviors, but Dr. feels like we can clean those up. May be why more and more kids are being diagnosed autistic. Such a blessing to find a doctor to look at the whole picture. Did I mention he is sleeping? He slept through the whole night. Dr. gave us melatonin for him at bedtime. Seems to be doing the trick. We also have zinc, cod liver oil, probiotics, and vitamins. Anthony can't argue that the melatonin worked, so I am hoping this will help him accept the rest of the treatment plan. We have to go milk free with him for a month. I want to do this now, because I think it will be easier than gluten free before we move. When we move we will do gluten free.
By the way, we finally found a house. Can't believe how awesome it is. Will be signing the lease this weekend and moving over spring break. Lots of packing and cleaning to do. We will have the boys around the next few weekends to help.? Not sure if that is good or bad? Maybe a little of both. Love them dearly, but they tend to create more chaos instead of helping. Motivating Kamron is like pulling teeth from an elephant! Justin is doing better now. He is a big help with the little ones when we are trying to do something. They love their Justin.
Promise to post pictures of the latest happening in the Martinez house. Anthony was in the restroom upstairs when Jaxon was downstairs watching TV yesterday. BIG MISTAKE! Jaxon found daddy's trimmers. Need I say more. Jaxon is now a look-alike to his favorite cartoon character Caillou. Yep, completely bald. Unbelievable. I still don't know how to react. I catch a glimpse of him out of the corner of my eye and it still freaks me out. Bless his heart. He says he didn't like long hair. Ha, ha!
