November's come and gone.

It is an incredibly busy time of year for us all. Every time something cool has happened I've meant to blog, but something else pops up and it never gets done. This is what we did in November.

Cole received an early Christmas present from Grandma and Papa Trapp. They got him an iPad. My dad had read an article in the Wall Street Journal about special needs kids using the iPad with great success. As you can see by the smile on Cole's face, this has been a HUGE hit.


All day long I hear Cole say "Computer". It is his favorite thing besides watching Thomas and Friends. It is also one of the only activities that Cole and Gavin can do together independently. Now I hear Gavin say "I want to play with Cole's computer. Lets play together." This is how they play.
Cole's been working hard on his walking and standing. We are borrowing this walker from the Jackson Center.

In early November, Eric went to Europe on business and my mom was lucky enough to spend the week with us. We had a ball and spent one of the days at the Children's Museum with our old friends and neighbors from Plover, WI. Ellen Smith and Jennie Smith Pyrz and her kids.
Here we are on the favorite "Bobtruck".


The Jackson Center hosted a Thanksgiving dinner for families, supporters and board members. There was a guest appearance from Santa. If you recall Gavin was not a fan of Santa last year, and things have not changed. This is the best picture we were able to get. Happy Holidays!
