It's been a week since my last post wow hard to believe. We have been playing outside alot lately which is so much fun. Grams and gramps surprised us last Sunday with a new trampoline w/ a enclosure thing so the kiddies are safe. The kids love that thing Mav is using his words while jumping too which is totally cool he says "I jump?" Heck ya you jump little man. He giggle and jumps then bounces to a lay down position too cute. Teagan has so many stories now from jumping on the trampoline I broke this while I jumped or I jumped so high I ... well you get the picture a 4 yr old full of stories lol. A just doesn't know about that thing yet. My big kid Louis aka hubby loves it too mav and dad have a blast on it.
This is Mav's last week of school he gets out for the summer tomorrow which is cool but hard since I'm not sure how the summer will go being that his routine will be different and he won't get his daily dose of Khristine and Marilyn but hopefully we will see them during the summer. We are going to make some play dates with Maddie his little girly friend from school he really does like her and she likes him too he is her "Mabick" she is too cute! Also going to try to get lots of fun activities in for him and T this summer since they both need it. Avery and I got to stay with him at school today which was fun took some pictures of his friends so he has the pics to look at this summer. A had lots of fun hanging out with the other kids too.
Teagan is visiting with Gramps and Grams for a few days which is always tons of fun.She will have lots of stories when she gets home for sure. I need to get grams and gramps a digi camera and show them how to work so that they can take pics while the kids are down there they always have fun and I wish I could see all the things that they do while they are there hmm will have to talk with Louis about getting the camera. Mav is going on his Adventure with Gma and Gpa this next week he loves their bed its comfy and shrek is always in the dvd player.
Not much planned for the holiday weekend just staying around home think. Oh we are putting up the pool. Well Mav is ready to go outside so I guess that is my cue to get off here will post more later if I can~Toodles

Quick post

Well the sickness hit this house again or maybe I should say hit poor Mav again ugh. He only was able to go to school one day this week but hopefully will be all better now and will return on Monday. Everyone else is fine so I think it might be something with his system seems like we go through this whole intestinal thing every few months him. I have read that kids with Autism can have probs with this which is no suprise since Mav has some weird eating habits. It will get better I know it will.
T goes for more testing today so mom is babysitting Mav and A which should be fun lol and I will get a minute to think ans a little peace while waiting for T to get done.
It's finally pay day for Louis again so tomorrow is a big shopping trip for Mandy woohoo.
Toodles~

oh more to share...

We went to a Garage Sale after school got out on Friday and Mav got a Bob the Builder matching game the cool part was when we got back to the car he started singing in his own little way the Bob the Builder theme song it was awesoem wish I had a recorder but I have it recorded in my head too cute made big smiles that day!
Oh yes I have to also add that we ordered the tickets for Mav and I to go see THomas and Friends LIve at Devoss Hall on June 2oth this should be fun he has been looking at the flyer for it for months now and I know he is goign to be blown away when he sees Thomas on that stage. Oh I am geeked about this one! I am on the look out for some girlie stage show now so I can take the girls I made a deal with T that is she would stay with Mammaw while I took M to Thomas that I would make a Girls day out and go see a Barbie or princess thing with her and A.
I have to tell you about Teagan this girl makes me laugh with some of the things she has been doing lately she is funny. She has been telling me mom remember when I was a little girl?.... Mom you know I am older now there are so many things I can do now... Um no she is still a little girl but I go with it and listen its cute. She has also been singing alot and making her own songs up kinda funny since I use to do that when I was a kid love hearing them. SHe has been very helpful with Mav too I think she is seeing and understanding that he is different and needs the help (and mom needs help with mav too at times) which is totally awesome she is an amazing child and I love her so much she is really maturefor her age(most of the time).
Ok now I need to get off here will share more tomorrow. toodles again lol.....

Adventures

are such a cool thing! Seems like my family has had alot of adventures lately and they have been fun. The kids love the word adventure too! SO many adventures though mean less time on the computer which is ok too! I love the fresh air and spendin glots of time outside with the kiddies we are having fun and are very Happy (there is that word again)!
Some Adventures from teh last couple weeks include:
A trip to Toys R Us just me and the 3 kids that was a kinda wild adventure but fun we found lots of stuff that we are going back for this weekend after daddy gets paid.

A big adventure in the big backyard loves these adventures so many things out there critters, toys, fresh air and so many photo opts that I have had with the kids and DH.
A trip to Goodwill love this place again ones trash is anothers treasure and woowee did we hit the jackpot this last week. Mav got 2 THomas shirts and was so happy love those happy moments. I found some goodies for my scrapspace oh gotta tell abotu this cool spice rack things that I am going to use for embellies will have to take a pic but it reminds me of the new KI experiment looking tubes. FUn Fun!
One of the biggest adventures and the girls would say the best of all would be mom coming out with her camper to camp this past week. The 2 girls adore Mammaw and she adore them too! THey camped and did lots of fun things right in the front yard lol.
Not so fun was our pony geting out and DH chasing him down the road ugh I am getting so sick of that pony but the kids love him so I am giving one more chance to clean up his act.

WOW


that is all I can say this little man amazes me. I heard 3 words that I have been wanting to hear for so long but wasn't sure I would ever hear for the first time lastnight. Mav told me "I YUV YOU" It was awesome I have tears in my eyes and goosebumps on all over just typing this. I tried to video tape him but he didn't want any part of that so we videoed the wall and voice recorded him. I LOVE him so much and I am so proud!!! WOW!!

To all that are helping raise awareness about Autism all the support has been Awesome and I thank you so very much!!!
