And now it's November..don't blink or the year will be over!
My babies!
We finished off October with lots of fun from Little Sister's birthday, Mimi and Pop-Pop's visit, Momma's birthday, and Halloween. October is a busy month for us!
Having fun at Little Sister's skating birthday party and enjoying some time with Mimi and Pop-Pop!
Staying healthy and getting our flu vaccine during Little Sister's well check.
Speaking of doctor appointments, someone rocked his dentist appointment and is still cavity free!
Brunch for Momma's birthday!
Enjoying a fall fire!
Halloween prep always includes The Great Pumpkin!
Pumpkin painting!
Pumpkins complete!
It's Halloween!
It was no surprise that Little Sister insisted on a group costume again, so we all ended up as characters from Avatar: The Last Airbender. We were impressed with how many people recognized our costumes while we trick-or treated!
Of course nothing slows down after October, and early November has already been jam-packed with the World Series (Astros win!), Election Day, and Veteran's Day.
Excited to celebrate the Astros World Series Win!
Came to vote with Momma!
Little Buddy gets Election Day off each year because his school is a polling place, so he was excited to have a special day with and lunch with Momma and Daddy!
Showing love to the USA on Veteran's Day!
Little Buddy also continues to have fun at his monthly Amazing Grace faith formation classes. We love that he can participate in his faith this way!
Learning about the Holy Trinity today!
Height and Weight
Somehow this boy keeps getting bigger! We won't complain though; but it does mean we've got to stay on our own game! Little Buddy is up to 110 pounds now and we're blessed by every ounce. And still so strong!
Big and strong and happy!
Personality
Just our happy and chill guy! He is quite the preteen and wishes he could stay in bed all morning, but he continues to be all smiles and joy once he is up.
Just let me sleep. Please.
Developmental Changes
Little Buddy is hanging in there, but we are continuing to fight for his full therapy services. It's so upsetting and draining to have to convince people that Little Buddy NEEDS these therapies even if he's not going to get "better." He's worthy just by being alive and deserves anything that makes his life better.
With PT being reduced to once a week right now, we're trying to add in lots of walks and our own PT regiment to keep him strong.
Working on all our OT skills too, like self-feeding and drinking.
Fun Tidbits
WILLPower got to be the beneficiary of a golf tournament this year and we were so exited that they raised $25,000 total in Little Buddy's honor!
Working together to cure Sanfilippo!
We can't believe that in a month we'll have enjoyed Thanksgiving and be getting ready for Christmas! 2022, where did you go?
Good night,
LBM
Little Buddy's Momma
