Caleb's 8th day of school

Aug 12, 2009 12:00AM - 0 comments

Good morning all & all.  Lyle was home to help the kids get ready.  Caleb had one fit & threw a toy down.  The toy went on time out for the day.  Caleb did not want to get out of the car at school but a hug helped him along.  Here's hoping for a good day! (PLEASE GOD)

No Hope.  My son was just suspended from Kindergarten!

Caleb's 7th day at school

Aug 11, 2009 12:00AM - 0 comments

This morning Caleb woke early & got dressed.  I allowed him to play WII fit until breakfast.  He sat down the remote and forgot where he put it.  He had a major meltdown crying, screaming, kicking his feet.  I turned to TV off.  At breakfast he had a PB&J Pancack sandwich with Banana Sliced on the side.  He put his banana slices inside the sandwich & had another meltdown when they kept sliping out.  I removed the banana slices from the sandwich & told him he learned something new today, bananas are slippery.  He smiled and finished eating his breakfast.

Caleb says he had a good morning.  He was great with the eye doctor and did pretty good in the waiting room.  He had to check out and touch all the glasses but did it in a quiet (for caleb), respectful non destructive way.  He even played with a baby by bringing her toys to play with.

Caleb had a "better" day.  Which is to say he didn't have a horribly awfull stress inducing day.  He still is not behaving & is close to being suspended.  He can't keep his hands to himself.  By the time we got home he was crying and I was crying.  I feel sorry for my daughter who was caught in the middle of all this.
I have sent him to his room to rest while I have some down time.  What am I going to do?

He's done okay at home but now it's bed time and I can't get him to stay there.  
Is it bad too be so happy the day is almost over?

Caleb's 6th Day of school-Monday

Aug 10, 2009 12:00AM - 0 comments

Caleb woke up at 2 am and stayed awake until 5 am.  I could not get him back to sleep.  He layed down but was very wiggly & complained of itching.  I did not see any cause for the itching but rubbed some aloe on him & it seemed to help.  He scratched a spot on the back of his head raw.

Caleb has a pretty good day today.  He had a great morning but when he returned from 1st recess he became aggitated & threw some papers from his desk.  When the Ms Rivera tried to calm him down he tried to push & hit at her.  He was sent to Mr Cotter's (the Counciler) office & they talked about how teacher's need to be treated.  He pulled himself back together after that & had a really good afternoon for ms Adame.

Ate dinner.

Caleb gave me a very hard time at Parent Teacher night.  He ran from me.   Screamed a beeping like noise.  tried to bite me. 5pm to 6pm

Caleb did not have a good night at the YMCA.  He was kicking the toys & tried to escape from the kids club.  When I came back to get him he ran out again into the gym.  When we got to the car he was upset he did not get a treat (sugerless hard candy).  6pm to 6:45pm

Caleb at the grocery store:  Ran away from me & was put in the cart.  Was good in the cart.  Helped me pick out fruit.  When I let him out of the cart at check out he was still a little manic.  He walked to the car with me & behaved the rest of the way home.

When we got home a put him in a warm bath.  He received his birthday present for being good at school.  He behaved well the rest of the night.

Great Sunday

Aug 09, 2009 12:00AM - 0 comments

We had a wonderful day.  I told the kids if they could keep themselves busy for two hours while I cleaned the house I would take them for a picnic lunch.  They played in the back yard for an hour & then cam in and Delilah read Caleb books for a 1/2 hour.  The last 1/2 hour they helped me clean.  Calen wiped down the walls in the hallway & Delilah dusted.  We went to BigLots and bought a frisbee & some waterguns then picked up lunch at Bakers.  Caleb was having a hardtime listening and following directions at the store but never melted down.  We spent two hours at the park & then came home.  Caleb gave me some trouble when leaving but got into the car when he saw I was not going to chase him down.
