Cadie and her Skeleton!!
Cadence just wanted to dance with them!
The kids in the back room waiting to begin...
The first dance was a warm up, and Ms Shelley had the kids go and get their Moms to do it with them!
Curtis did really well for about half then he became very shy and decided to just stand there :) But that's okay his Mommy was very proud of him!
Curtis "helping" Mommy make a Halloween Cake!
Curtis and Cadie waiting at the door for Grandma Cindy and Papa Terry!! So we can go to the Pumpkin Patch!!
Funny that Curtis thought the best part was the Pigs :)
You can hardly see us... Cindy, Me and Cadie! From what I hear at work I am one of the lucky ones I have exceptional In-Laws, who love my children VERY much!
Hay-Rack-Ride after picking our pumpkins!! Levi, Curtis, Cadence, and Lucas!!
Now don't they look Rotten?!?!?! Lucas would NOT touch the inside of the pumpkin! So Curtis got a handful of pumpkin guts and touched Lucas!! Luckily Lucas thought it was funny, so did we!
Cadie didn't much like the inside of the pumpkin either :)
Cadie and Grandma Carol!!
Curtis and Grandma Cindy!!
He does have croup!! But luckily, because of already having zopanex due to his asthma, it hasn't gotten that bad. Just a TERRIBLE sounding cough! We stayed home from small group last night, and I skipped ladies night out ;( so that we don't infect anyone else. He is such a trooper. When I went put Cadie in bed he had fallen asleep in my chair :)
Today Cadence took FIVE INDEPENDENT steps! WOW.. it was so exciting Curtis and I where cheering and clapping for her, and she wasn't even sure what she had done :)
These boxes were supposed to be for cleaning their summer clothes out of their closets... Instead we made a TRAIN ;)I was reminded again yesterday why I am going back to school... I wish the entire world could see children who have autism in structured environment!! They are awesome people!!It seems like I don't have enough patients for my blessings! Brett is gone most every evening, mostly due to work. I have attempted laundry, dishes, and homework ~ however~ my children remind me that I am first of all Mommy. Then I housewife and student! How does one keep up? As I sit here half feeling sorry for myself over being tired and behind on just about everything, I am reminded that one day they won't need me. There will be silence in this house, and I will long for the sound of whining and laughing. So for now I take a deep breath and be Thankful for my absolute chaos that I call normalcy! And hope that I am not all that abnormal just learning as I go.
There are many WONDERFUL Things Cadence can do: She Walks (will some assistance)
She has a TOOTH! And she isn't screaming in this picture, I know it looks bad she's mad at me for opening her mouth, but not crying ;) (I promise Grandma Carol)
She feeds herself, EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING she finds! My floors are cleaner than they have been since Curt was her age!
I was assigned in my Intro to Professions class to make an EDUCATIONAL Blog! So I thought who better to hit up for website ideas then some of my homeschooling Moms! Please feel free to check out my new blog, it is just starting and of course it is geared more to special ed then general ed. What can I say I am in LOVE with special ed!! However am working on my general education now so, if there are any sites you have found helpful and would like to pass them on please let me know.. Thanks so much!
