Living Life's Dream

Who can believe that I let the month of September fly by and hardly post a thing! Things have been so busy around here.....I don't even know where to start! My school year got off to a rough start, with a lot of changes taking place at our school! It is really too bad that politics take the fun out of working with children, but I guess that is how it goes! On a better note, I finished my Autism Certificate at the beginning of the month through PSU and am now taking classes toward the supervisor's certificate (which has ended up being more work than I bargained for!) but will hopefully be worth it in the end!

The boys are doing well! Garrett LOVES kindergarten and is doing fantastic in it! He loves his teacher and the 7 other children in his class! He has 2 favorite days: Library day (Tues) and Soup day (Wed). Miss Bajorek is his librarian and always seems to have a dinosaur book picked out for him! He is counting down the days until his birthday and has a list a mile long, it seems! Of course everything on the list has something to do with dinosaurs! Books by far are his favorite thing right now! He lives for bedtime when him and Kurt read a chapter out of a chapter book each night!

Ethan continues to be Ethan! He is still a loving little man, that takes a ton from Garrett! He moved into a BIG BOY BED this month and LOVES it! I was not ready for that, but whatever! That is one step closer to not being a baby anymore! Ethan enjoys going to Miss Paula's everyday and playing with his friends there! We have been truly blessed with our babysitter, she is a wonderful person and Ethan loves her! The next step for Ethan is to get rid of the BINK! He is STILL attached to that thing! I think we are going to make a trip to Build A Bear and stuff it in a new animal! Keep watching for that post! It will show up when I get brave enough!

A few weeks ago, the boys and I went with my mom and dad and the twins to Cleveland for the weekend to go to the zoo! They had a dinosaur exhibit this summer that I wanted Garrett to see! We had a GREAT time.....a get-a-way that we all needed! Kurt had to stay beind to work all weekend, while we enjoyed ourselves! I have put a few pictures from our trip!

I hope this finds you all doing well! It is pouring down rain and there is nothing better than a nap on a rainy day, so that is what we are off to do! Happy Fall ;)
