Nickolas:
Many outbursts of frustration over normal chores. Not listening to what is actually being said instead of reacting to what he thinks is being said. Nick is responsible for chores (including his bedroom and trash to keep it clean and earn a allowance, which he hasn't gotten in a few weeks) he would rather rush through these chores and say they are complete than taking the time to do them the right way or get frustrated when I tell him he missed something or did not finish another.

Little adult syndrome: He back-talks us. I try to correct him or ask him not to roll his eyes when I correct him or speak to him, he gets a attitude and gets frustrated under his breath, 'I didn't do that' then cries about it. Making a big deal that he did not roll his eyes or back-talk us.

Sebastian:
Trying to vocalize more and play with his big brother and best friend. Not frustrated by Nickolas' behavior as of yet today. Sebastian has a need when he wakes up, even after just opening to his eyes to request a specific game on the Wii or to watch TV. Currently the games he wants to play are Naruto: 1 or watch Max and Ruby, or Little Bear.

Struggling to keep him clothed in this cold weather. I had to help him and "threaten" to take away his cartoons or game if he did not put them on. Also, as I have been for the past year, his obsession to chew on 'attackin' toys is a daily thing. Constantly reminding him if he tears them up that he cannot play with them, telling him he is going to hurt/damage his teeth has no effect as he does not understand.

Not to self: Need to setup a Eye DR appointment for Nickolas as his eye chart check at the DR office for his headaches and knee pain she gave him a eye test and he did not do very well. Need to get this checked. Also, need to setup Dentist appointments for both of the boys.

This is all for today, thus far.
