Well, today was Hayli's Birthday, didn't go too good. My grandma passed away at 6:30 this morning. Tried to make it a good birthday but don't think we suceeded. I feel so bad! She says that everything is ok, but I can tell by her face that she was disappointed. I think I will give her a suprise party next week to make up for it. oh well, kind of rambling I guess. Noone here to talk to dh has went to work and the kids are a messing. Guess I better go clean :(. Hugs, Kristi | ||

Ya know in my house, I still have the same problem. I think the biggest part of "our" problem is that there is too much competetion:( does that make since? I have 3 boys and they are all that:) BOYS!!! We have ninetendo, playstation, we have movies, vcr tapes, we have bikes coming out the wahzoo, cartoon channels exceeding saftey limits(we never get to watch a WHOLE show unless we put our foot down) trampoline basketball hoop ya name we have it and if we don't..... DONT SAY IT TO LOUD or I will by weeks end:)LOL can we say spoiled:)LOL Even with all this to do it still happens. Accidents occur when preoccupation with things happens. The fear that he won't get his things(what ever he is doing) back when he is done in the bathroom:( After many years of continually repeating, You can't play if you have an accident it has gotten better with time. Ashlie is still young:) And I know as she matures she will do just fine:) To tell ya the truth I figured I was the only one here with a preoccupation problem:) Thanks for posting that:) RO | ||

man Oh MAN you were missed:) Hopefully your ride home was uneventful:) and that the kids didn't continually ask "ARE WE THERE YET?????" The trip home is suppose to be a sigh of relief but... in my car it is the beginning of the normal.... "I'M BORED:(" That is why I travel at night:) Carry plenty of sleep vibes so the kids lids get heavy and then plop.:) The snoring gets ya after a while so you constantly have to change the channel on the radio so that the beat doesn't clash with the constant sawing:)LOL Anyway Welcome home:) I am eagerly awaiting the dolphin photos:) Tell me ya got one of the kids :) I just love to see that on t.v. but I don't know them as I do you:) Watching as the kids mature into mini adults you feel part of the family:).

i also noticed potty training ashlie is 5 and is completely day trained but not night : ( we started her at age 4 but I WASNT CONSISTENT until recently when she finally got the hang of it she will still have some accidents occasionally when she gets to preoccupied usualy into Rugrats but otherwise she stays in real underwear all day long. about toddler beds ashlie was 3 before we put her in one she has always been a runner so i kept her locked up as long as possible and she would have stayed in thr crib at 3 but she shook the poor bed so much it became wobbly LOL, hugs heidi oh oh welcome back susan and shawnna | ||

OLIVIA LOVED digging in the sand for em and letting em crawl all over her hands. she thought it was HYSTERICAL when we left and set em free. She could NOT believe how fast they burrowed back into the sand when we let em loose. brave child not scared of much these days.. Stella I laughed so hard at your car story. Funny now huh?? Wonder how funny it was at the time..LOLOLOL.. Going to Livs boyfriends birthday party...She is gonna miss Cody sooo much when she leaves this school. She HAS TO sit next to him on the bus.

I am recovering wonderfully. I feel great and the boys have been such great helpers. I think I may have to recover longer LOL. They do 80% of the housework and Joe has been cooking. We took them to the movies last night because they have been such a help. I can do a lot now, like cook small meals and light housework. Tell your family hi from us all Deborah | ||

My name is Susan and I've been one of the Uno Mas gang for a little over 2 years now. I am married to Terry and we have 4 children: Michael (21), Justin (14), Emily (11 Ds), and Jordan (9). We live in Cookeville Tennessee. We have one pet.....a beagle named Shiloh. ~ I'm so glad to see all the new members. You will love this site! There are so many wonderful families here, and I've found them to be supportive, informative, loving, giving, and FUN! ~ LINDA: I'm so glad to see you posting more lately! I missed you! ~ I'm going to try to call Radonna tomorrow. I hate that she is offline again.......I look forward to chatting with her online at least once every few days and sure will miss it! And she is always such an inspiration to me! I do have her snail mail address if anyone would like to send her a card. Just email me and I'll give you the address. She'd love to hear from us! ~ CC: GREAT news about Chris's FM! I'm so proud of you!!! I really admire you girl! ~ SUZANNE: My thoughts have been with you. I was saddened that you did not get the baby, and at the same time thrilled that his parents bonded with him and wanted to keep him. I do hope you will be able to adopt another baby soon, but I sure understand about not wanting to get your hopes up again this soon. Godspeed to you! ~ STEFF: SO COOL about the Disney program! I can totally see Liv doing that......she is so animated and cute! Can't wait to see it! ~ SARA: I'm so glad to hear how well Nathaniel is doing! He is really growing up. His photo made me smile from ear to ear! What a doll. Sounds like he is making great progress in the potty training department too. Way to go! I'm so glad to see you posting again. ~ Have a great weekend everyone! Hugs, Susan | ||

~ Discovery Cove was fantastic!!! It really is overpriced, but SO much fun! It is only open from 9-5:30 and we got there early in order to get our money's worth! It is one of the prettiest places I've even been to......the landscaping was amazing! There are various areas to swim. Some places are COLD salt water and have beautiful fish and sting rays swimming along with you. I thought that might scare Emily (actually, I thought it might scare ME!), but it was really fun! They gave you a mask and snorkel and it was so much fun swimming along with all those fish. The bottom of the pool where the fish were was kind of "natural" with coral and other stuff....very pretty! They also had a fresh water river that was gorgeous! It was a bit like a lazy river that you see at water parks, but totally covered in greenery...sort of like you were swimming in the amazon. Some areas were up to 8 feet deep. There were areas where it was enclosed at the top and beautiful birds were inside. A GREAT lunch meal came with our admission price....way too much food! Ok.....and the BEST part was the dolphin swim. It was way better than I expected it to be. Each family was assigned a time for the dolphin swim. It was our family, a young couple, and a girl from England along with 2 trainers and our dolphin "Diego" and 2 photographers. The first thing they had us do was to get into the water at chest level (it was ICE cold!) and one by one we were told to hold out our hands (palms up) and the dolphin swam over and placed his face into our hands and we kissed him. It was so cool because he acted excited after each kiss.....swam around and jumped, REALLY cute! When the trainer explained what we were going to do, she asked who wanted to go first. EMILY raised her hand and said she wanted to kiss the dolphin first!!! I sort of cringed cause I wanted her to be able to see other swimmers do it first to get more comfortable with it. LOL She did exactly as the trainer had said and then said "I love you dolphin"! There were a lot of "awwwwwwws". We got to do several things like learning some hand motions which made the dolphin jump or turn in circles, etc. But the most fun was when we held onto his top fin and he took us for a ride! FAST! I can't tell you how fun the whole day was! The only bad part was that around 3:30, it began to storm REALLY bad! The clouds turned black, there was terrible lightning and thunder, and really high winds. So we had to go to a shelter and wait it out.......I was so frustrated cause I felt we were being cheated out of time in the water! By the time the storm was over and we were able to get back in, it was almost 5pm and they closed promptly at 5:30. Bummer! But, I am so glad we went and the kids had a blast. I really recommend it! ~ One good thing about Discovery Cove is that you get a 7 day admission to Sea World when you buy your Dolphin swim package. We took advantage of it too! We went quite a few times. There is one show with sea lions and a tiny otter that we saw over and over again. Emily absolutely loved it! Before the show starts, there is a mime dressed up in a black and white pirate outfit. He does this routine where he basically teases all the audience members as they are finding their seats. I can't begin to describe how funny he was. It was so much fun to laugh that hard....and to see the kids having that much fun! Sea World also has a great area where there are dolphins swimming around in a large pool which is enclosed by just a waist-high wall. You can lean over the wall and feed them fish or just pet them. Emily couldn't seem to get enough of that! Every evening at 9pm, they have a show called "Shamu Rocks America". We saw it 3 or 4 times! It was absolutely amazing! One night, Jordan asked if he could sit on the front row because he wanted to get drenched with water........LOL he didn't need to sit there cause that whale can drench at least 14 rows up! But we said "sure" and then Emily wanted to sit with him. I tried to remind her that she woudl get soaked and she said it was fine. The first time Shamu jumped and she got drenched, she came running to our seats mad as a wet hen! She declared that she now hated that "stupid whale". LOL The next time we went, she didn't want ANY part of sitting on the front row! ~ UNO MAS was never far from my mind while we were gone. When Emily and I were in the ocean (at Myrtle Beach) I noticed a young couple who seemed to be looking at Emily. Turns out, they have an adorable little boy with Down syndrome named Isaac (he is around 2 years old). We treaded water and talked for a while and I told them about this site. I hope they will post! (I didn't exactly have anything to write down the URL right then, so I'm hoping they'll remember and join us!). Also, at Sea World we met a handsome young guy named Ryan who is 15. He and his dad and Emily and I rode "Journey to Atlantis" together.....it is a great ride where you ride around in a boat and then plunge down this huge hill into water at the end. He is starting high school this year, and has been fully included since kindergarten. I hope his parents will post because they would be able to answer so many questions on inclusion. Really nice family! ~ Terry didn't join us in Florida until the 19th, and when he arrived he brought a stack of printed Uno Mas message board posts to update me! One day, he took the boys to ride bikes and Emily and I headed for the pool. At one point, I sat on a lounge chair and read all the posts. Emily came over and asked if she could read too, so I handed her one sheet. Her eyes immediately went to a part where (I think it was from Steff) it said "Happy Birthday Emily Pace" and she was ecstatic! She read the entire page, front and back but read the birthday message over and over. Thank you for remembering her! ~ Ok...that is probably way more vacation details than you wanted. We had a great time, but I'm glad to be home (If only I didn't have to go to work on Monday!) This was the first 2 week vacation I have taken in like 16 years! I think the kids are glad to be home too, but I know they will miss the ocean! We spent 3 days at Myrtle Beach, 2 days at Daytona Beach Shores and about an hour at Jacksonville beach (they had better seashells there than anywhere else!). We really should move to Florida......I could handle the sun all the time! Anyway, I missed you all while we were gone! ~ Susan | ||

For those uninitiated of you, my name is Shawna, and A LONG LONG TIME AGO, I had the title "Queen of the Posters", cuz well, I wrote the longest, longest posts of anyone...I have since handed my crown over as "real life" crowded my Internet time into an eensie weensie corner of my life.. I haven't been here for sooo long, I didn't realize just how much I missed y'all. First of all, Hi to all of you who have joined in the last six months or so. I know that you will find Unomas as much of a blessing as I have over the years. To all the "oldies"...it's so good to "come home" again. Robin, I was just rolling when I read about Chase cleaning your kitchen. Michael loves to clean as well, but he usually just has a damp rag and maybe a pail of water. I used to give him a pail of water until the time he tried to wash our electric keyboard! Anyhow, that boy is a cleaning fool...Put that to good use! Give him a little damp cloth and when he's so "high energy" get him to "wash walls"... If that just doesn't work, I am busy inventing the "Kid hook", so you will have a place to hang him, where you know where he is and what he is doing...I know, it's not that funny...but it sure sounded funny... come on, when it's me and my son, you'll laugh. For the record, as I said, my name is Shawna and my husband is Lawrence. we have four kids. Robbie is almost 18, Janine is 15, Jennifer is 12 and Michael is 10. Michael has DS. As well, we have Steven, my hubby's single business partner and his cat Sylvester living with us. Yep, we are a full crowd, I tell ya. We live in Bluffton, Alberta, and my hubby and Steven own a trucking company where they drive Vacuum and water trucks for a company on the oilrigs, as well Lawrence is setting up a mobile truck to fix air conditioning systems. I tell you, the weather here in central Alberta has been downright droughtlike this year....it's really terrible. I heard that the County is about ready to declare the area a disaster area, agriculturally speaking. Most of the crops are no more than a foot tall... Someone was asking about toilet training, Sarah I think. Well, I don't think you want to hear this, but Michael was 7 before I started training him. I was waiting until he started to show some sign of discomfort at being wet (that never did happen). It took about 6 months or so to get him to use the toilet regularly. I remember that initially we were taking him to the washroom every 15 minutes, to make sure we had no accidents. He is finally starting to sleep through the night without accidents too. I found that when I put him in underwear and have him use the washroom before he goes to bed, he wakes up dry...Cool! Hey, a long time ago I was telling how we have this problem with Michael wandering away sometimes. He still wanders, although he's getting better about sticking around. Get this: a community group in Bluffton is donating $2000.00 Canadian toward the purchase of some kind of monitoring system for him! Yeah, pretty soon, he'll be able to go play outside freely. Does anyone have any input on a particular system they have used or know of personally. I've found about three on the Internet, but don't know which would be the best one for us. I'll keep you updated. Oh, I never said..Michael is "officially" in grade 3 this year. They have him with the class as much as possible last year, and I anticipate the same this year. OF COURSE the wonderful special ed. teacher they had last year has transferred to a different town this year - some sorry excuse about wanting to be where her husband is. Sheesh. Where are her loyalties anyhow? LOLOL God has always provided wonderful people to work with Michael, I am sure He will continue to do so. Well, I guess I should go. It's already near my bedtime..Yikes. Talk to y'all soon, I hope. Ciao for now. Shawna | ||

Nope, my son does not have an extra to blame it on, he was just a wild child, and still is. Lol...of all my children, he has easily been my biggest challenge. Savannah is doing great these days. At her four month appointment she was 12lbs 5oz, and she is still nursing like a champ. Nothing but momma's milk here. I really enjoy reading all of your stories. I suppose they will not seem so funny to me when Savannah is older, so I must enjoy them now. :) | ||

Stella......ROFL, please please dont be issuing this bad child of mine any challenges, LOLOL! Yikes, I can see him taking you up on it, LOLOL!!! WTG Sarah, you do my heart good hearing stories about you!!!! Maybe your mom will bring you to Dayton for Labor day weekend and you and Chase can both terrorize the hotel!!!! And the story about flooding the car...OMG, did the child live??? LOLOL that is the best story I heard yet and not even the extra chromozone to blame it on, LOLOL! Jackie... Chase was in a toddler bed by the time he was two, LOL, as 9even though it is hard to imagine this innocent child doing it) he kept climbing out of his bed and I was worried he was going to get his leg caught or hurt. We did however have to keep his bedroom door closed as he wouldnt stay in and that was the start of haivng to stay with him until he fell asleep, and sighhh, yes we still have to..ugh. Ok need to go finish reading posts. BTW.... Susan and family are on their way home from sunny Florida as we speak. She figures to be home about 3 or 4 in the morning, yikes! Any bets on whether she goes right to bed or gets on the computer? I say she wil be on the computer within five mintues of being home, she has missed us all as much as we have missed her I bet!!!! hugs, Robin | ||

We are seriously considering putting him in a toddler bed he just bangs around that crib and wakes up with little bruises on his poor little head. He just don't have enough room in there anymore,but I know when we make that move he will be in there having a ball instead of sleeping. How old was anyone's little one before they made the move? and how was it? Well I guess I'll go try and find something to do I might just have to wake up Justin for some entertainment lol. | ||

Has the kitchen dried out yet?? I'm sure it must be sparkling clean!! Reminds me of the time Sarah was in hospital - she was 4, she had had open heart surgery. I stayed at the hospital with her but I had to eat sometimes ok? Well I went for my breakfast - I'd say I was gone 20 mins max and walked back into the ward to a great commotion and heard "There's her mother" - OMG what had she done?!! Well my little angel had gone into the Staff Bathroom, turned on the hot and cold taps full blast and when the Ward Sister noticed the water pouring out under the door and tried to get in - Sarah sat against the door laughing her head off. When Chris (the Sister) eventually got in Sarah was dancing and splashing in the water, soaked to the skin and soaked Chris in the process!!!!! SHE FLOODED THE HOSPITAL WARD and they had to get a suction machine to get the water out - OMG I was sooooooo embarrassed but Sarah still thought it was the best thing ever!!! So c'mon Chase there's a challenge for you! Tee hee. Stella | ||

Well I have started to try and potty train Nathaniel..We put him on the potty every 2 hours, so far it is going good. I showed him the sign for potty and now he does it when I tell him that it is potty time :) We get success about half the time, the other half he wont go...Does anybody know how long it usually takes to potty train ?

Been so busy with the boys and working that I haven't had a chance to get here to say HI. Hope everyone is enjoying there Summer. Robin, Thank you for remembering my Birthday !! I am so thrilled !! I had a fabulous day. Keith took me away for the weekend to Deep Creek Lake in Western Maryland and we stayed on a boat for 2 days ( most of the time, we did sleep at a motel) It was really fun and relaxing. Did you know that they have bars that you can dock at :) ?? !!! Drank some skyy Blues and Rum runners...just relaxing on the boat, listening to music. I didn't want to come home. He says we are going to do it again next year !! I don't want to wait all year WAAAAAAAAAA. Again Rob, Thanks for remembering me....give Chase a belated Birthday kiss for me too....and Susan give one to Emily for her Birthday too. I didn't forget, just didn't make it to the puter. WEll I am off again. Take care !!! Hugs, Lorena | ||
