Artist

Well, my second week of school went really well.  I am starting to get used to the bus and I decided to share a few more smiles in the classroom.  I like to play with the switch toys - and my classmates like it too, they always come over and join me.  I also ran into my cousins Bell and Carter at school.  They are older than me, but we are all in the same building.  I even surprised my mom with some artwork.  She was so impressed she decided to have me share it with all of you.  And just in case you were wondering, Maggie is doing really well in daycare too!

1 week down, 20 years to go

We all survived the first week.
   -The first week I started school (my teacher Kristi is very fun).
   -The first week I used my wheelchair.
   -The first week Maggie decided to poop in the bathtub (I am sure she is happy I shared that)
   -The first week I rode the bus (and decided to throw up on the bus just to keep people on their toes).
   -The first week Maggie went to daycare.
   -And the first week I got to be one-on-one with my new helper/PCA, Erin (who is way super cool).

getting off the bus - do I look a little uneasy?

Let's just say, I think we are all ready for a day at home. It is going to take some time for us all to get used to this new schedule.  My mom came with the whole first day, so she could help everyone get to know me a little.  Each day I decided to cry/fuss a little less.  Yesterday I even decided to start showing them my killer smile.  Maggie decided to go the other route - at least that is what I heard mom tellin dad.  I guess the first day of daycare she didn't make a peep and went right to play with the other kids, the second day she fussed a little and didn't want to let go of my mom's leg, yesterday she screamed bloody murder as my mom rushed out the door.  After the initial tears though, she had a great time, and was always smiling at the end of the day.  All in all I think this new routine will be good for us all.  Anywho, I will be going to school 4 days a week for about 3.5 hours, if you count in bus time.  And my new after school helper is pretty neat, she makes me work hard - but we have a lot of fun together, she is really nice.
