I had an appointment today with the Department of Developmental Disabilities. It was at 1:30 p.m. I forgot until he arrived and I was still in my "house clothes" (pajamas)and hadn't taken a shower yet. I guess that is ONE way to let them know "we need help!" He told me that Jaxon needed to be there. I have never done this before (we are applying for Jaxon so we can get a case worker and have some assistance with all of his MEDICAL BILLS!!!!!!!) so, I wasn't sure what to expect. I mean, was he going to interview Jaxon? Or, did he just want to make sure he was a real person? I don't know.
What I DO know is that Jaxon made one HECK of an impression when he ran in from the pool and said, "HI!!! I'M JAXON!!! I WANT TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING!" And then promptly pulls down his swim trunks exposing...well.....everything. Welp, I guess that I ONE way to prove that he has a disability..
Anyway, I guess part of the problem is Jaxon and his understanding of anatomy. We were talking later as he was getting dressed and I pointed to it (you know what) and said, Jaxon.. What is that? (I am going somewhere with this.. I was going to tell him you don't show THAT to people!) He said... "MY BELLYBUTTON!" Humph.
Hopefully we can get that anatomy straight before he starts school on Monday and flashes his "Belly Button" to a whole class full of Kindergartners.....
Oh, and MANY Thanks to Pip, Mombabe and Gabi for coming to my house tonight. It is sooooooo nice to know that my blogger friends aren't imaginary.... my husband and I have that argument all of the time. :)

okay... i loved your story. it definitely made me laugh. & how fun that you got to see some fellow bloggers in real life! (and i know what you mean... my hubby calls bloggers my imaginery friends).
Imaginary friends don't eat your husbands favorite peach cobbler all gone!
ps email that link to the funny blogspot we were talking about (mormon satire one). I am racking my brains for the name. Help.
So jealous (of the blog meetings, not necessarily the belly button story--we have enough of those in our house so I don't need to be jealous!)
So what did the caseworker do?! I dying to know his reaction...
I'm glad we got to hang out once before you moved so you know that I am real.
uh, Lindsey? I am completely imaginary.
I'm so sad I missed it. I was a girl's camp all week. I really wanted to meet you in person. I guess this means we'll have to do another one sometime.
I am so glad you left a comment! I was thinking about it later on yesterday afternoon and realized that I only remembered the PandL part of your blog name and couldn't remember how it ended. Friday night was so much fun. I hope that Wendy will keep inviting me to the stuff you guys do. You definitely have a fun group of ladies in your ward! See you soon.
I have felt imaginary because my computer hasn't worked! Glad to be back to reading your blog:)!
That is the funniest story! What happened with the caseworker? Did they accuse you of telling Jaxon to do that so you would get assistance:)?
