I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! Brendan and his Dad stayed home since they were both still recovering from being ill. I was able to go solo to drop off gifts at my parents house and visit with family for a few hours. So,that was nice.
Brendan seems to be well today. He has had some crying spells and I got one headbutt today. I think the headbutt was because I thought he would want to go for a drive (just to get out of the house), and even though he said 'yeah', I don't think he really wanted to go. He has communication tools to use and can say 'yeah' or 'nah' if he doesn't want to do something, but he doesn't always use these tools (which results in frustration and headbutts/hitting).
He enjoyed opening his gifts. But the funny part was, when he was given a 'clothes box' to open he would just look at it and say 'clothes', stare at it with no enthusiasm, and then proceed to reluctantly open it. This was the first time I've seen it do this when opening gifts. The gift bags and cards were open more heartily!
I hope this week I can get him back on schedule. Over the last month (and this continues), he wont' go to sleep until 1am or 2am. Then he gets up at 11am and won't come downstairs until noon or later. Not good once school begins. We'll see.....
