1/23/13 - start neurofeedback

Darin took the kids in to school and I did about 5 loads of laundry and got groceries before heading over to Doyle to meet up with Darin and have our 11:15 meeting with Jennifer (school counselor), Kim (principal) and the educational specialist (not sure of her name).  The meeting went really well and they have a lot of ideas they want to start enforcing like a higher table so she can stand, turning the chair around so she can lean on the back of the chair, lap desk so she can sit on the floor and eventually get her in a 504(?). 

Darin and I went to UTC for lunch then I went to University City library and picked up some books.  I went back to Doyle and helped Mrs. Traganza by covering a couple boards with contact paper.  I picked the kids up early from Primetime and let J play about 10 min at the playground.  A didn't want to play so I had her read the 2 books I got from the library on Molly Pitcher for the biography she needs to turn in by 2/7.  At home I drew a flower on a paper and had her put the name in the stem and asked her to write some details/facts in the petals.   She wrote "born 1950's".   J wrote a little bit for his homework but not much. 

Darin picked us up ~3:20 and we drove to La Mesa for a 4pm apt w/Linda N (Behavioral Specialist) for consult and neurofeedback.  We were there until 5pm.  I think this will be very helpful to Alexa but it is expensive!  $100 per session and she needs to go 2/wk for a while.

Both kids fell asleep on the way home but woke up when we got home.  Darin dropped us off as he had a happy hour to go to with some people from work.  I had the kids take a bath.  They got ready for bed and I read a book to Jake and A laid in her bed and watched ~20 min of Matilda on my IPAD.

J fell asleep before A was done but she was ready for lights out at 6:30pm.  I was ready too but thought that I would try Perplexus again - no luck getting to 100 today - YET!
