Day 4

Really, I'm just posting this for my own recollection later.  Yesterday, last day in Atlanta, it took and HOUR AND A HALF to get the medicine in her.  Yes, that long. Kicking, screaming, threats (from both of us), bribery, Facebook posts/begs, M&Ms, etc. etc.  I finally "hid" the medicine in between pudding and it went down like butter.  Only wasted a pill a day...gunna have to explain that to someone at some point.  So, the medicine got in her at 9:30am...I almost didn't give it to her, knowing it had a 10-12 hour effective period...But it was fine.  Had her strapped in the van for over 5 hours..that'll make anyone ready for bed!

So, today.  Did the ole hide-the-medicine-in-the-pudding trick.  Down in 10 seconds.  Very interesting day, too.  After I hounded her to eat a peanut butter and jelly roll up sandwich, she ate nothing else all day until dinner at 7pm.  This can't go on more than a week.  She is 32 pounds!!! She wanted to start crafting and spent at least 4 hours making paper crafts-mainly little books.  Very interesting.  Talia has NEVER been able to sit still long enough to do anything...FOUR HOURS, and probably longer, but I didn't count.  Too much going on.

So, this is it so far.
