New App. - Bugs and Buttons
We have a lot of apps we love and I have talked about a few of them. Recently we came upon a new one that is really great. This new app is called Bugs and Buttons. It has the "game" aspect so keeps Junior interested but also teaches lots of math skills. There are many smaller games/educational things(18 to be exact) within the app so it is easy to keep Junior focused. Because of the bugs and great graphics even parts that Junior would typically think were too young for him he likes. One of Junior's favorite things is the little and very real looking bugs that crawl across the screen.

It has been a few weeks since Junior's hospital stay and he is slowly regaining his energy. Yesterday he even managed a fairly lengthy school session.
Here he is ready to work. Sorry there aren't pics of him using his ipad during the session. He is learning about growth so we planted seeds so it was a bit hard to run the camera with my hands covered in soil.
When we started his history he started complaining so I pulled up his "I need help" board and he quickly told me he needed to get out of his chair, then that he needed a treatment.
Now that Junior is feeling better I hope to post much more often.

Happy Valentines Day
Things have been a bit crazy since our hospital stay but are slowly getting back to normal. At some point I will get back to regular posts but am still a little overwhelmed at the moment.
Please feel free to follow us over on Junior's regular blog in the mean time.
Happy Valentines to everyone. The sun came out which means Junior's asthma cleared and we were able to have a nice day. Even got out for a walk.
Junior used his ipad during our Valentine's fun. I got to hear him say Happy Valentines Day and I love you. Something I never thought I would hear. The best Valentines gift possible.(sorry about the angle on these, hard to see in the pics what he is looking at)
making tie dye hearts, he was also making a giant heart window decoration.
