They started at the top of the hill by the fence, and then go through the leeeeeetle path of snow and then go airborne.

Those pictures are great! I wish we had enough snow here to go sledding. We only got an inch last time it snowed and then it melted by the afternoon. :(

Lori-- that's usually what it does around here. I was amazed that it snowed until 3 the next day!! That never happens here!

Punkin- No prob. :D I had hoped to get some good pictures of the ice. The weather men said that it would be icing the next day, so I thought I would wait until it stopped precipitating...but it started sleeting and snowing. ah well lol

PP That was the hill that I left up to the rest of the fam... I took a little hill for my excursion. I get to do it next year!! Hopefully it will snow enough!! :fl :fl

Went to the chiropractor yesterday. Back had been hurting, and kept getting worse. I feel much better now. Much more relaxed.

We have been getting one of the twins tested for Autism for a couple of months. Last Thursday we got the official diagnosis. Mild to Moderate Autism. We already knew he was different, but now we have a definite and can move forward from there. I'm still overwhelmed, and still sad, but also hopeful. I know that once you identify a problem there is a set of solutions that come with that problem, so we're not just stabbing in the dark to try and help him. We have things that we can do now.

My cats ate my sprouts and now I need to start over. :th :lol:


Owell this time I will start over the right way and also put them in my room away from the kittehs. Anyone like lol cats? I loooove lol cats

Okie, my son and DIL have been having test run on my middle grandson. Still no diagnosis yet. Turned out he was almost deaf so they are working on that at this time. That may be his problem instead of autism so the Drs are waiting to see what happens as his hearing improves. Sorry about your little boy. But like you said, at least you know now. That was our feeling as soon as we found out about the hearing problem. Now there is a course of action that can be taken.

Love your pics. Snow here only last for a few minutes. LOL Sometime not even long enough to get pics.

Is your back trouble related to sleding down that little hill. (Just kidding) well, maybe not.:p

Our son's hearing was tested recently too. In the pre-lim he failed. They are going to do the more in-depth hearing test in a couple of weeks. We asked the psych if his problem might be hearing related(someone from early intervention had already mentioned this to us earlier) he said in our case no, but it can exacerbate it.

Now there is a course of action that can be taken.
Yes! That's what I was trying to get out, I just couldn't find the words.

Let me know how it goes with your GS.



lol you made me giggle. No it wasn't due to sledding down the hill. ^_^ I really did a number on it last year...still not sure what in the world I did, and it has never been the same since. Sometimes it just goes out of whack if I move wrong. I also had problems with my hips when I was a kid, and the dr couldn't figure out how I messed them up, but was able to pop me back into place. Those two things could be related. I didn't start having problems with it this time until two days ago. :p

Okie, Hope your little one does ok. My DS seems to be doing somewhat better after they did ear surgery on one ear. They still have to do something to his other ear. They won't make any diagnosis until then. My son does not want to discuss a lot of this, he and his wife were in total denial forever until I just flat out made them take a long hard look. Then they sluffed me off with "it will be ok". Then a few months after that he called and wanted to discuss it. I figured out real quick what he wanted was for me to agree with him. Needless to say I did not agree. I was furious with them for waiting so long to even attempt to find out what was wrong. Angry with the Dr's for not pushing the issue. Angry with them all for allowing tubes placed in a childs ears by a Dr to be left in to create such horrible infections. All of this part of the problem could have been totally avoided. If he is autistic that would be unavoidable. But the ear thing was avoidable. Total carelessness on everyones part. :he
