I have not been able to post in a week because guess what, I got sick. We went to a wedding just before I got sick and we had a great time. Genevieve and I danced the night away! Nathan on the other hand moves like Jeff, we need to do some practising. Nathan said he didn't want to practice at the wedding, we have to practice at home first. So I guess this year we have to practice, so he will dance with his mommy at the next wedding.
Last Monday, I was out with the flu, but managed to take Nathan to his ocupational therapy assessment. Found out some interesting things, like he doesn't hear out of his left ear! Nathan has managed to compensate like he does with everything. We had an appointment with audiology this morning, which confirmed what we as parents already knew, Nathan has supersonic hearing. So it's not the ear that's the problem, his ear hears fine, it's the brain!
So Tuesday was ophthalmologist for Nathan at children's. Guess what we heard there again. It's not the eye, it's the brain :). She was very adamant we need to see neurology again. She wants to recheck his visual field in six months, and would like me to bring in Nathan's medical binder, as she would like to review, to see if she can help in any way. She is a Neuro ophthalmologist :). I didn't bring the big binder with me as I feel some if his drs are looking at me like I am dr google when I come in.
Genevieve stayed at my parents house Sunday Monday and Tuesday. She played a lot of Lego! That counts as something right?
Wednesday was physio,skating and hockey. Then Nathan was supposed to go to soccer. Instead we went to the er for a dislocated knee cap. Don't I live an adventurous life :). No damage to anything thankfully and he was walking the next day, and could run by Friday! Today I think is the first day it has been pain free, at least he has not told me it hurts today.
Thursday we had piano lessons this day, we also did some other work I don't remember ackkkkk. Genevieve had cheer, and Nathan and I went to the library. Nathan and I worked on some math and then he picked out some books.
Friday kids went to school at tla.
Monday we worked on our top secret adventures china, wow it's taking us a while, but we are learning a lot about china. We have read a few books on china from the library too. Nathan had a soccer game as well
Tuesday Genevieve's assignment was to pick a bug that she would like to be and research the bug, so far she has a bunch of notes on the board. Genevieve went to art class (Nathan is at home sick), in art class genevieve studied the style of Claude Monet. Jessica pauls (her teacher) read a book about Monet, and then she worked beside a partner to create a cohesive work of art. I wish I took a picture! We then went to the library picked up a couple of books on butterflies and a couple on flies. (Nathan choose a fly). Genevieve then had piano lessons. When we got home both Nate and Genevieve read their bug books. Genevieve continued to work on her research and Nathan and I delved into math. I think Nathan and I are finally making some headway in this subject, he shuts down every time we start it.
