Award

Thank you so much to Ashley over at Sewrite for sharing this award with me.  It has been a while since I've seen any around the blogosphere and it is always fun to play!

Three things I love about being a Mom:

1.  Watching my children sleep, there is nothing more peaceful than a child or baby sleeping.

2.  Having a good giggle fest with the kids.

3.  Making memories with the kids that I hope they'll take with them as they grow.

I'm going to share this award with:
Teresha from Marlie and Me
Stephanie from How to Survive Life in the Suburbs
Nicolasa from {My} Perspective

When you receive the award do the following:

• Save the award image and include it in your acceptance post
• List three things you love about motherhood

Skiing

For Christmas this year first born beauty received money and she bought herself some skis.  We paid for her to go to 8 weeks of ski lessons at our local hill and she had a blast.

Next year we are planning to put Princess on some skis as well.  I picked up a pair super cheap from a going out of business sale.  She is super excited about using them.

Skating

During a PD day in January I took the trio for a trip to the skating rink.  It was an early morning skate and we had the entire rink to ourselves.  This was the first time Princess was on skates, she worked pretty hard and I'm sure had a sore bum from all the falling by the end!  The big kids had a good time, they have improved since the last time I've seen them on skates!  Afterwards we went to have brunch together.  We'll definitely have to get back on the ice next year.

Christmas with Cousins

After Christmas we had a cousin Christmas opening party before heading to the Mandarin for a yummy buffet meal together.  Everyone was well behaved, especially baby boy who sat in his high chair for over 2 hours playing with spoons, he barely made a peep!  It was a great way to end the holiday mayhem, a meal where someone else cooked and cleaned up after our mess.  :)

A Day in Our Life with High Functioning Autism

Today was a rough day.  For those of you that still struggle with the diagnosis of my boy, you should watch this video.  This is becoming a daily occurrence and as of this week included a similar episode at school after doing really well for a long while.  Truthfully I don't know why the meltdowns are happening so often.  I also have no clue how to deal with them most of the time.  This just shows you how I dealt with it today.
