A little late blog for this morning.  We are heading out for dinner with Monica's GREAT Grandpa for his 81st birthday tonight.  I already showered, dressed, make up and breakfast all cleaned up. 

It is really hard to tell, if we are seeing any changes. Remember, I am aware I am looking more. 

Monica's fuse seems shorter. Especially in the morning after the NP ingredients. She had a total of four bowel movements yesterday, peeing perhaps more than normal. 

Her happiness seems more too.  That giggling.  Even today, this morning in bed she pointed outside her bedroom window.  When we came downstairs, she used her IPAD talker to say, SWING. She pointed what she wanted, she told us what she wanted.  We told her it was raining, so no swing. 

She also had to wait a little bit while Grandpa cooked the bacon. Normally if she is walking towards the dining room, and I say, "It's not ready yet", she yells and tries to sit down anyway.  Today was the first time she stopped dead in her tracks and turned around and went back to the couch. 

8:30 PM

The drive to Chicago was a success, as well as stopping at Sergio's house before Central Gyros.  This was not her first trip there.  It was a long afternoon, since we left at 2:00, and dinner at the restaurant wasn't until 5.  Monica really seems like a patient kid today.  Now, I was also prepared.  Extra food, and snacks.  Toys in the diaper bag that I didn't pull out until 30 min at the restaurant.  Monica is my full time joy but also a job. I am well aligned with her needs.  We feed off each other.    Even just now, she climbed off the the couch next to me, and pointed to the dining room.  She waited until I nodded my head.  Then she turned on the light in the dining room, and is watching her tablet from there. Peeking at her crayons.  

Hope to have a easy night to fall asleep. I am wiped out.
