First Spa Treatment




Thanks to Aunt Krista and Susan for giving Michaela her first pedicure and hair styling.




Pre-School Moving Up








Shawn has graduated to the 4-year old class. Hard to believe my little man is going to be in Kindergarten in a year. Very scary how quickly they grow up.

Family Vacation













Here are some pictures of our trip to Myrtle Beach if you haven't seen them on Facebook already. We had a great time on our first family vacation. Hopefully we can do Disney next year.

Aidan Update

Hi Everyone:

Aidan started his services this week for his diagnosis of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), which is on the Autism Spectrum. He will get intense Applied Behavior Analysis(ABA) therapy two times a day, 5 days a week, for 90-minutes each session. So he gets it every morning and again every evening. It will work on everything from speech to social interaction to daily living skills (maybe I can bribe them to potty train him and Michaela too). haha

He is already making better eye contact and starting to say a few more words (Ma, choo choo, ball on a regular basis, wee when being pushed on the swing, and understands what GO means and when to use it) in only three short days. The teachers are great and the one who teaches him every morning also does our Parent Training once a week for an hour for the next 6-months. He is responding well and enjoys seeing his teachers. They are working as I write this on identifying body parts and animals.

I will continue to update this site often as it is a good outlet for me to write what's happening (somewhat theraputic) and it's a great way to keep you all updated.

Much love,
Suzanne

Mommy and Me Photo Shoot


Well they only got one good shot after taking a million, but what a great shot it is. I wasn't there the class before so I had no idea about the photo shoot. So Aidan in his soccer shirt was not really ready for a beach scene. There was one very nice mom who literally gave me the shirt off her son's back, I rolled up his jeans and took off his shoes, and he was beach ready. Too bad I didn't know about it because I would have brought Shawn too.
