Sewshawna's Stitches

Here is our happy jack-o-latern! Here is my younges Darth Vader, shhhhh it is really nicholas but dont tell anybody I told, lol. He wet trick-or-treating with his cousins, they got to use the younges fairy as an excuse for teenagers to go. It didnt seem to matter though he brought home his pumkin bucket stuffed full of goodies. The kitties watching for ghoulies........... Happy Halloween!!! Hahahahahahahahahahahahahhhaaaaaaa!

Nicholas and Nathan getting ready for Halloween, got to carve that pumkin!! Sure is a messy job!!! Eeewwwwww!!! Nathan doesnt seem to care though, just put in his hands and pulled out the guts, lol.

Since I allready told Irma, thought I would share the smiles. Yesterday I spent the day with my youngest, Nicholas, shopping as he is all arms and legs, you all know teenage boys, lol. Anyways that ment DH had the day with Nathan guy. My 17year old with down syndrome and autism. Well they went on a drive for pop and pizza pockets (nice food groups dad, lol) and hubby's car is a stick shift. Nathan pointed to the stick and states "whats this" and DH explained it makes the car go. He showed him the different numbers/gears and showed him how to shift hand over hand. By the time they were done Nathan is shifting all the gears each time hubby asks him too. So in addition to driving the lawn mower he can now shift gears on a manual. I'm just praying he remembers to lock the car doors, lol. What is it with men and their toys????? And thank the Lord mine is automatic, and wont shift without the keys, whew!

As those of you from my yahoogroup know, Nathan has Down Sydrome and Autism, so still currently unable to drive our vehichles, as he is 17 years old on 08/08/08, and we can't seem to deter him from frequently getting behind the wheel in the driver's seat, dear hubby took it upon himself to teach Nathan to drive the lawn mower without the blades engaged. Got the steering down, learning the gears. Now I'm really feeling the speed, arn't I so cool!!! Railing the corners,lol! Dad better hurry I will get away from him,lol.

Nathan enjoying his favorite of "orange pop" that all the relatives seem to remember,lol Nathan's second favorite food, first is pizza,lol, second is pizza pockets! enjoying his cards and money, during the bbq, being inpatient for his presents. Ofcourse he wanted chocolate cake, so I made two sheet cakes for him, next year will just do the number candles instead of putting all those candles on and trying to light them. This is hubby and our two other children, lol "B" short for "snugge b" is my only other girl in my household, and "duke" is in the red party wear as I dont know how to spell "lai?" They also had a great time and got lots of handouts as they are too cute to ignore.
