We had a great time on our little weekend getaway-despite the rain! Kiddos had fun petting and feeding animals and at the amusement park. It was a bummer that we could not do the water park, but we got tickets for a return visit, so we'll try to go this fall sometime. 

Jordan had his second round of Botox today, he did great. He is already so much looser on his left side and using his hand way more. It is amazing how quickly and well it works! 

Time to get in to school shopping mode! Not sure how that happened so fast! But, here we are! This weekend Em and I have a shopping date for schools shoes (oh, and likely something glittery from Claire's). Can't wait!

Enjoying our summer days. 

Jo had CP clinic follow up. We'll soon be doing 3 weeks of intensive constraint therapy (basically he'll wear a cast on his good arm and have 3 hours of therapy 5 days a week and then casted 24 hours a day). We are still figuring out the logistics-but we'll make it work. They've seen HUGE improvements in "remapping" the brain for these young kiddos. Nervous but excited for him! 

Em is doing camp this week at school I think she is relieved for some structure (and Chris is relieved that he'll be able to get some work done!). 

We leave for vacation (long weekend) in a few days-can't wait.

Happy 4th of July! Had some awesome time off with the kiddos. Lots of outside time, pool, boat, Cedar Point, Target. What could be better? Jo had a bit of a cold the whole week, but didn't let that stop him! Lots of fun!

No big updates! Em and JoJo are enjoying swimming lessons and playing outside (finally some nice weather!). Just enjoying our not so lazy days of summer!

Happy Father's Day! Although soggy, we had a great time sitting on the boat. Hopefully this weekend we actually get to take it out on the water... 

Kiddos are having a fun summer (as much as we can with this awful weather!). We are fitting in as much playground and pool time that we can! With all of the rain we've had to get a bit creative too! 

Summer is flying by!!

Lots of fun in the Mullen house! Jo had a playdate, Em went to Cedar Point (first time she could ride the "big" rides. We are all enjoying summer!! I can't wait to have a few days off to really enjoy these kiddos!!

Chris and I got a way a bit this weekend for a wedding. It was beautiful and fun (and always nice to actually be able to eat a meal and have a real conversation!). Kiddos are good. Jordan had a neurologist appointment in Friday. We'll be doing his next Botox injections in July and going up on dosage-which should be good. He also is up to 38.6 inches and 32.4lbs. It was 3 years ago (yesterday) we brought him home weighing a just 4lbs 12oz and 18inches. We've certainly come a LONG way! Em is excited for her last day of school today (but was bummed to miss field day due to a fever yesterday!) Ok, that is all for now!! Time to enjoy the summer!

Summer is quickly wrapping up! Em made the freshman volleyball team--I couldn't be more proud of all the hard work she put in this summe...
