hope your easter was better than mine...

It seems i picked a wrong time to start back on dieting,..easter brunch at the church was delish! they had cherry cheescake,..so i couldn't help indulging myself in a piece. Its a good thing we enjoyed our good friday because Tabitha got sick with a tummy bug and spent sunday and monday throwing up. Then, Amber and Chloe decided to join in the party this morning instead of going back to school. On wednesday, we got a call from the infant hearing program. They autimatically keep tabs on Tabitha because of a family history of hearing loss. They were doing a phone screen to see how Tabitha was doing. They ask questions to get an idea of how she's responding to noise, and talking etc. Well, she failed the test. So, now we have to take her in at the end of may for a hearing test and see what's up. They are also setting her up with another program called Talk to Me to have her assessed by a speech and language pathologist. That's not to mention the fact that she is almost 18 months and still not walking. Amber's speech and language pathologist wants her to get a neral phsychology test done because they thing she has problems processing commands and questions, but Matthew and I aren't completley convinced of this because she seems to only want to do what she wants to do, when she wants to do it. The poor girl is having a rough time. First, she gets a tummy bug in January, then last month, she found my birth control pills and took 3 of them :( she spend a whole night throwing up...and now only weeks later she has another tummy bug compliments of Tabitha. Tabitha is feeling better today I think its been nearly 24 hours since she's thrown up, but she still is on a crackers and pedialite pops diet for now. Oh, and Chloe who is in grade 3, came home telling me the most disgusting jokes that her classmates are rehearsing at school. I was pretty suprised that it started that early. I explained to her those kind of jokes were not appropriate and we have begun the process of explaining to her all about the changes her body will go through and as soon as I find a good book at the library that will be extended to the birds and the bees. The look on her face was pretty funny when explaining all about the joys of the menstrual cycle. In more happy news my corn seems to be doing really really well and i am looking forward to transplanting them outside. I was hoping to be able to celebrate my birthday tomorrow with the family since matthew has to be gone to Toronto all weekend from thursday til sunday, my birthday being on friday. But it looks like any festivities will have to wait until next week. Anyway spring is here and the rain doesn't last forever so as they say in the book of mormon "And it came to pass"
