Emmy's ears

Emmy has another ear infection, but every time Owen tells someone, he says, "Emmy has a ear confection". If only it was a that awesome...

School is here!

Owen started preschool this week. I wanted him to go to my friend, Jamie Camp's class since I have been working in her integrated program over the last year and it is awesome! She is an amazing teacher, great curriculum, and I love the model of special needs/typical peers. We had to stand in line in April to get him on the list for typical peers, since she only has a few spots, but considering we would have to wait overnight for Kindergarten if we were still in spokane, that wasn't anything big :)
He was so excited the night before he could barely sleep! I was definitely more emotional that first day while he was super excited. I am very grateful to be working only at Knolls Vista this year and to be just a couple of minutes away from him during the school day. Going in to work with the students who need Speech Therapy a couple times a week means I get to see him in action in class and it is pretty cool to be able to watch him learning!

Good night, Superman

Owen has a nightlight that projects a picture of Superman onto the ceiling. Emmy thinks it is the coolest thing and every night, she wants to go in and say goodnight to Superman. She is dramatic and will do a sharp intake of breath, put her hands on her cheeks, blows a kiss, and then says goodnight to him. It's pretty sweet.
