Too freaking much for one freaking day

X-man is starting to visit the Tiger room at school. He didn't like talking about it. He's a man of action. He apparently got to go visit them from 9:30 until 2 p.m. today. 

Ms. Holly and Ms. Krissi said he did fabulous. He apparently was all snuggles with Ms. Sonya (who he had in the toddler room for five months before he moved up), until naptime, when he decided he was not going to sleep in a strange place. Instead, he tried to test the Tiger teachers' patience by jumping up and down on his cot. (Anyone remember when my son got three stitches under his chin from jumping on a cot last December? How about when he fell off of one at 18 months and got a black eye? He clearly has no adaptive response.)

When the Tiger teachers didn't let him get away with it, he insisted on using the potty... every five minutes for all of nap time. 

I guess I should be happy he wanted to use the potty, right? He's in the Tiger classroom full time starting March 23. But they said he had a good time.

In other news, I took Maya, our big, fuzzy cat, into the vet today. Her urinary tract infection came back. She still has blood in her urine, but her white blood cells are good and she no longer has pain in her bladder (so at least the antibiotics she was on for two weeks did her some good). But she's still peeing in our basement and our shower. So now she gets quarantined into our bathroom as we try to dilute her urine because she has cystitis.

But the most important thing I learned about Maya today? I knew when we adopted her in 2003 that she was an abuse case. What I didn't know was that she HAS A BULLET JUST BELOW HER RIB CAGE. It's not causing her any pain, nor is it in a bad place. But seeing those x-rays was just crazy.

That's crazy! (About your cat, not X-Man).

Holy cow that's one tough kitty! Cat's seen more action than most people... although, do be careful if Maya ever has to go through airport security... ;-)

Poor kitty, kitty.

And I hope X-man settles into his new classroom okay. It's all about testing the limits at this age. Aaarrrg!

Wow! She and Ella are bullet sisters.
