A Fun Week!

Joy’s teachers sent home a treat bag!  Just playing on the drumsIMG_5440IMG_5441

Halloween!  Joy was a cute bumblebee!  Her little “tank q” earns her double the candy her sisters brought home!  (Mama and Daddy were happy about that!)

So cute!   Love a sleeping baby!     She spilled her popcorn on the floor and then she got down there and started blowing on it like she does with cotton balls – someone has had a lot of Speech!

Our Neighbor’s Halloween Carnival

Our costumes                                                   Our neighbor was dressed as a great witch, but she was terrified – she crawled up into Jack’s lap and hid her face.  Poor thing!IMG_5389IMG_5390

Playing games and having fun!

Joy’s Week

That is the app from Down Syndrome Education International.  We have the cards to do it on paper.  Joy did it that way, but this is so much cooler!  I like it!

Watching TV, reading books, swinging, dancing, and playing the viola

Church Fall Festival – so fun (and I forgot my camera, oh, how could I?)  She was so cute.  Once she figured how how trunk or treating worked, she loved it!  Her little “ank you” was so cute!

Trying to hook herself up to the vent like sister.                   Poor Joy – she gets hauled everywhere.  This is how I found her when we got home one afternoon.  She is belted, believe it or not.  She has just manipulated those belts till she could curl up in a ball and go to sleep.

She has learned to say sorry – “tar E” she says.  It’s so cute!

Joy loves fruit – I ran out on Friday. 

“Mama!  Apple!” she told me with great sorrow.  Saturday, after shopping, she was much happier.  It doesn’t help that she can open the fridge and help herself!  Smile
