Our Week

Monday Joy had a Daisy Meeting.  Grateful that Lizzy goes to help her!

Monday night was our Special Needs Support Group meeting.  Lizzy turned in all of the bracelets she made for children at Memorial Hermann Children’s hospital.  Babies and toddlers get stuffed animals and blankets all the time, but big kids need fun stuff too.  So proud of her!

 

Tuesday Sammi had UIL for Choir.  Oh my goodness she was so nervous!!  But they did awesome! They got sweepstakes – straight 1’s! 

Grace and Jessi wore the same shirt one day – I called them the twins!  Fun that cousins get to go to school together!

Wednesday night the Beehives had a “Celebrating our Differences” night.  The girls and I taught about visual impairments.  We showed them braille books, had them type their names in braille, and use a cane (with sleep shades).  It was fun!

More kittens!                           We were able to donate Bella’s walker to a young boy who was adopted from Eastern Europe (that made me happy)

The girls playing with chalk

She had to play in the rain.  She loves her babies!

OH!  How I love this!  He found where the measuring cups are stored.  He walks over, opens the cabinets and pulls them out!  Then plays with them on the floor or outside or wherever.  Yeah Brother!  Yeah for taking it a step farther!

Time to celebrate!!!  He drank from a straw!! His OT and I hugged and celebrated!  (Chocolate milk was the trick!)

Cute girl!

Cute Joy and clover flowers – beautiful and happy girl!

Garden – cherries, peaches, sage, flowers

Kittens!

Sweet boy!                        A new car seat for Bella.  I have been trying to figure out what to do.  She isn’t even 30 pounds, but she is so long!  She doesn’t weigh enough for booster seats, and I needed something that could get tall, and something that was supportive, since when she is sick or tired she can’t hold up her body well.  Score!  I love it!

Friday night Jason made us all crawfish!!                                  

Yum!                                       Sammi sucking the head!                Bella liked it!

Joy, though, preferred cheese pizza!

It was such a beautiful night!   The girls playing “Duck, Duck, Goose.”  Yeah Sam for including Bell, but poor kid, she looks like a sack of potatoes!  :)

Bella “riding” her bike.  We loved swinging

Two Star Patriots in our family – yeah girls!
