Well Jack was officially diagnosed with ADHD. He started on medication on Wednesday. There has been no significant change but it is only a half dose while his body gets used to it. The first 2 days I had to crush half of a blue tablet and mix it with yogurt or applesauce. He did not like the blue color in his food. I was prepared to mix it in sugar free chocolate pudding but Karee decided to teach him to swallow pills. We bought a big bag of m&m's and told him he could have all the candy he wants if he didn't chew them. He got the hang of it pretty quickly. He even was able to start swallowing them without water. The next morning, he was so proud to be able to swallow his pill. That certainly takes the stress away from "is he eating it all?" "is Kara getting some of the food the pill is in?"

Grant is starting to stand on his own without holding onto anything. I am amazed every day how young he is to be doing this stuff. We saw a different pediatrician in the practice the other day and she feels Grant will be walking very soon.

Kara is doing pretty well these days. She isn't quite as mean to Grant as she used to be and is starting to share. She is speaking in sentences now and is starting to be just as funny as her big brother. Grant was crying and she told us that Grant was "crying in his mouth".
