The boys are still in school, but next Thursday is their last day, so I'll soon have less time inside, as my kids are outdoors kids.I'm been really ... http://evansmom.mwpmommyblogs.com/?p=247 My FIL didn't pass his driving test.  Darn Alzheimers!  The report came in the mail yesterday.  The in-office cognitive evaluation indicated cognitive abilities have declined and driving performance may be compromised.  The on-road evaluation was outside the range of normal healthy drivers and beyond reasonable road safety as defined through ... http://evansmom.mwpmommyblogs.com/?p=246 You have no clue (well, maybe some of you do  ;) ) how much I hate reflux and the sensory crap that comes along with it.

I found out about Evan's great success ... http://evansmom.mwpmommyblogs.com/?p=243 The other day, while we were walking to school, Evan ran up behind Brandon and smacked his butt with his hand, then high tailed it with a laughing squeel.
