10 yr. Warre's Ruby and King's Tawny Ports

The wife and I have been moving a slug of bottles around with us for ten years. Through three states we've packed and unpacked them since we were kids in our first big city apartment together and went wine-shopping with our first big kid job salaries. Now, it is time to crack those babies and they...

New hobbies

Had another boring day at work today so I poked around the intertubes. Looking for something new to do. I'm thinking about picking up erlang. Don't really have a use for it quite yet. Yes, that erlang. Does anyone actually use it? It seems nice: small feature set, well-defined, documented. I've been...

James Foster presents MagLev, Seaside, GemStone

I just finished watching a well-produced video of James Foster presenting MagLev, Seaside, and GemStone at OTUG in Minneapolis. You should also look at what James says about the video on his blog as well.

Speech Therapy and Progress

Ruby had a great day at speech therapy. Lara (her therapist) was really impressed. She can't believe the progress Ruby has made since her last block of therapy 4 months ago. She said this block will be fun. Ruby was spontaineously saying her own words, asking for things, repeating and imitating. She...

Peaches - YUM!

This is my favorite time of year -- when the peaches become ripe and we get fruit from Eastern Washington in some of the local fruit stands. I picked up some peaches yesterday, and oh my goodness they are soooooo good. However, do not feed them to your dogs! My dog loves fruit. She loves water...

More Progress Even If It's Small

After switching back to giving the MB12 every 3 days Ruby is back. She's progressing again and not spacey. Tonight she went into the playroom, the light was off, she pointed up to the light and said "light open". She's never done this before. I loved that she knew what she wanted, but couldn't find...

Gramma and Pepe's Visit.

We had a really nice visit. Ruby loved my mom and Clara played strange of course. She warmed up to my mom by the end of the day and even let her carry her up the stairs. Later my mom came back while David and Ernie went to the racetrack and Clara laughed and played on the floor. I think Ruby wore my...

Ruby nostalgia

Preschool Intake

We went for the intake today. It went very well. I was expecting the women to be completely against Ruby's diet and biomeds but they were right on board with all of it. They even have a caterer who will make Ruby GFCF food. That makes me happy beyond belief. I won't have to send her to school with...

Incredible!

Okay, Ruby asked to have a bath this morning. So we gave her a bath. She wanted me to sing the alphabet song, so I did. THEN, she started to sing it on her own. She sang the entire song without stopping. Looking at me the entire time. Her words weren't clear, but she strung the words together, got...

The girls

We were getting ready to go outside.. I liked the colour photos as much as the black and whites, so I posted both sets.

Preschool

Got a phone call today from Jubilee Heritage school. We put Ruby on their waiting list back in October 2007. They have a few openings for this September! So Ruby will be going to school 2 mornings a week. We are choosing Monday and Tuesday. We just have to get the aide set up. We also have to do an...

Crazy days

The last two days have been hard. Ruby is going through another yeast die off. This means another huge regression. The good thing though is she is keeping her gains. Meaning she is still doing all of the things she has learned, but has picked up her old stims, she's a bit spacey at times and yelling...

Yeast is back!

Very off day for Ruby. I am having trouble figuring out why she is so up and down all the time. I think she has major yeast issues, worse than I thought. I have to increase her Biotin. It's very frustrating. I think getting rid of yeast will take a good year. I really want to try chelation, but I...

Great Progress

Ruby had an excellent night and a pretty good week. We've taken most of the vitamins out for now and she is only getting her special enzymes, yeast fights and viral rememdies. We just started her on Aloe Vera juice as well. Tonight she was talking like crazy! Repeating words and once she was being a...

Getting better for now

Things have been a little hard with Ruby for the past couple of days. When the yeast comes back I notice that is when she flaps her hands, is aggresive, screams over any little thing and sleeps horribly. The yeast is back, but I finally received the No Fenol in the mail a couple days ago and it's...

Progress

Two days ago she decided to give herself a nap and went up to her room and waited for me to close the door. Today she is showing signs of jealousy toward the baby, this is a good thing. She is showing typical sibling jealously. She is eating a lot more variety now. I have taken all breading on her...

Ruby

Ruby was diagnosed with moderate autism on September 27/07. We'd known something wasn't quite right for about a year, but because she made great eye contact, was affectionate and interacted with us, we didn't think it was autism. But she just wasn't where she should have been for her age and yes,...

"ictures"

For the first time, Ruby actually asked me to take pictures of her this afternoon. She pointed up to my camera and said "ictures." She ran into the bedroom (which is a mess due to shampooing the carpets) and then she actually posed for the pictures she wanted me to take. The first picture just kills...
