Tessie, our two year old, already has a diagnosis of autism, but every year our insurance requires her to be reevaluated to keep going to her inclusive school with therapy and OT and Speech therapies, and so today we braved the cold weather to go to another autism evaluation where a psychologist administered an ADOS to see if she still qualified for the program that she's in. While I was fairly confident of the result of the evaluation, and have been through this five times with Maggie, our eight year old who is on the spectrum, it's always a little nerve wracking waiting for the results, since all her therapies and education depend on it!

Welcome to Someday I'll Sleep, formerly Coffee and Cupcakes! We post family vlogs daily, about our lives and because we have two daughters on the spectrum we post quite a bit about autism! You'll get glimpses of what's going on at the moment in our lives, usually in a little town in Michigan, or in the city that Paul works in and where we have about a million therapy sessions each week.

Paul and Cammie (the dad and mom at Coffee and Cupcakes) have 5 children. Sadie is 10, Maggie is 8, Patrick is 5, James is 3, and Tessie is now 2!

If you'd like to help us translate and transcribe our videos we would appreciate it so very much! With 5 kids and lots of therapy appointments Cammie doesn't have very much time left over after she finishes editing videos so transcribing is slow going around here! youtube.com/timedtext_cs_panel?c=UCeDzaWX98ne38J07…

    Thank you so much for sharing. I see a lot of my daughter in yours. We are scheduled for an evaluation soon. I was in denial. But because of your shares I am realizing the right thing to do. So thankful.

    She's so good with the shape sorter. My 18 month old still couldn't do it at all.

    I just asked for a referral for my daughter. She is two years old and she exhibits alot of the same actions. If she is diagnosed then I have to be her number one advocate even though it breaks my heart. I thank you for putting out this video.

    School didn't cancel for me, sadly. The roads were terrible though and my driveway was practically an ice skating rink. So glad to go on this journey with you guys! Much love. ❤️️😊

    I noticed that she likes to hold something as she goes about activities. My granddaughter is doing the same thing. It used to be plastic spoons, now it’s an IKEA bag clip! She stims (her twin doesn’t) and she has significant developmental delays. We suspect she may be on the spectrum and will be having her tested with in the next few months. Thank you for your informative posts! Best of luck to you and your lovely family.❤️

    Wow. I'm in the UK and I'm horrified that you have to get the diagnosis confirmed every year. I thought it was bad enough that we have our benefits reviewed for lifelong conditions. Our NHS isn't functioning well but man am I grateful for it. I wish everyone could have free health care 😔
  • @themysticastronaut5500
    Having to get them rediagnosed every year would be so anxiety provoking. I am glad everything went well. Thanks for sharing!

    I just started the video and Tessie reminds me so much of my little Lily. She is getting her autism eval tomorrow afternoon. 💖

    I just get so aggravated with insurance companies😤 How would they feel about 🤔REdiagnosing their children every year, over and over, just to have coverage🙄 Your daughter is beautiful! She’s a perfect angel👼 💙💚💜🧡💛❤️

    she does so well and she seems very normal to me, i've raised 4 kids, every one is different. out of 4, not one of them would even attempt a shape sorter....not sleeping at night has so many reasons....i hope she shocks you all and makes a fantastic entry into her next stages ! she's just a wonderful kid !
