So...ended up taking Noah to the doctor yesterday. He has a viral infection that is spreading to his ears. SO...he was given some more medicine for his ears and some cough syrup with codeine if needed....as he has been coughing so bad and sometimes almost nonstop. Fortunately...he seems to be feeling a TINY bit better I think. He got a better night's sleep so that is good. We talked to the doctor about Noah's preschool issues...and asked about testing for fragile x syndrome. He ordered it and we can have that done anytime if we decide to. I meanwhile typed up a letter to send to the doctor so he can go over it before we take Noah back for a check up and his 5 year BOOSTER shots on Jan. 29th. I am not sure about testing for fragile x syndrome as I don't really know if Noah's school planning etc would be any different than it is now. The main thing is to re-train his brain to perceive and send messages to his brain differently...so he does not have behavioral problems or sensory problems. AND....if he DOES have fragile x syndrome...it could only have been passed by his maternal grandpa which would be his grandpa Lincoln. MY DAD. Dad would poop his pants if he thought he carried some gene that could be passed onto his grandkids to cause them problems wouldn't he? Oh well.....kind of complicated how all that gene stuff works. Does not necessarily mean there is anything wrong with you....just you might be a carrier. AND you may never know you are if you yourself have no problems. And dad would have gotten that gene from his grandfather. Super odd huh?

Ran down to work and am already back and working from home. Have tons to do. PLUS I want to get the Christmas stuff down today or this weekend! WAY past time for that!

Not much else happening right now. Need to get some work done. Maybe a quiz before I go..hahah
