Sabres game in Style

We were able to get tickets to one of the preseason Sabre's game last Sunday night, so Courtney grabbed a friend and off we went. Some pics of Courtney & Alyssa enjoying their time there.

Painting with Shaving Cream.

I got very brave this morning and let Caden do some therapeutic shaving cream painting on the table. He seemed to really enjoy it. I read somewhere once that it is supposed to be very therapeutic for children w/sensory problems.

~Sorry the picutres ended up downloading in opposite order- figures!

**Yummy** Apple Pizza!

What every child does at least once!

I'll never forget the first time Caden did this either- we were in a hotel in Allegheny for Mike & Kasey's wedding 2 years ago and Caden got his hands on the toilet paper. He had it all though the suite, the living room, bedroom & hall. I rememeber being so glad it was at a hotel and not home for me to clean up! Not so in Colin's case though! :) I had to get a picture of it. I have pics of Caden's also, however they were stored in our old Computer, never to be seen again :(

Love to capture those "firsts" and hope they learn to never do it again!

Last night after the kids were in bed, I went to the Y for my usual nightly workout and just as I got there a younger women had passed out on the track. The Y workers were attending to her with the deflibulator machine and were in the process of calling 911- but it made me grateful yet again for that CPR class that I attended last week. 911 arrived about 17 mintues later(yes I did time it), by that point thay had her sitting up but her whole body was shaking terribly like convulsions. Although I was just an onlooker I felt emotion for this girl and the Y staff. they all did a great job. Just makes me want to take another class focused soley on adults more then ever!

Yeah Caden!

Caden is now sleeping in his own bed all night long (well most nights anyway) for 2 weeks now!!

Ice Cream pit stop!

Since the Drive to the Farm is about 45 minutes we decided to stop for Ice Cream on the way home.







Snikerdoodle Ice Cream!~Yummy~

Colin not too sure

Becker Farms!

We took the kids to Becker Farms to go apple picking and enjoy some fall festivities. The kids had SO much fun! Caden was apple picking crazy! He'd throw his bag down and get right up in that tree and pick away. Colin was happy as long as he was holding 2 apples at all times :) One to hold and one to eat. He loves his apples and had a blast too. Courtney actually told us that was the most fun she's ever had (outside)We couldn't beleive it! This is something we'll have to every year from now on for sure! With dinner the adults even got free wine tasting (5 tastes!!) So that was exciting for us as well. Today were hoping to go get pumpkins when daddy gets home from work and decorate for fall!
On our way!
