Chipoltle

Chipotle is a mexican restaurant. You have to wait in line and then order at the counter (a really big line and once you get to the counter it takes forever). We took Robb there today for the first time, and it was a big success!! He was pleasant the whole time, and patient when waiting in line and for my mom to order for him!!!!! He also really enjoyed the food which is good because it is one of the few things that he isn't allergic to. Next time we plan on to take his communication device so he can order for himself! This makes me so happy not only because it is a step in the right direction, but also because I to LOVE Chipotle!!!!

Summer is here!

Summer Vacation started for Robb on Monday!!!! He is off for 2 weeks (it is a "year round school" so it isn't long but it is still really nice)!!!! He has spent his time going to Chipoltle, watching TV, and Hanging out!!! I'm sure he isn't the only one who has been doing this:)!!

"Being happy does not always mean everything is perfect. This means that you have decided to look beyond the imperfections."-Anonymous

I saw this quote today and it really made me think of Robb and a lot of people for that matter. Because if you are worried about all of the imperfections and what you can't have, you will never get a chance to think about all of the things you have to be happy for. For nobody and nothing can be perfect and the sooner people figure this out the happier they will be.

Special Olympics 2014

The 2014 Maryland Special Olympics was held Sunday and Saturday, and I would just like to say Robb rocket it!!!! He won 2 gold medals!!!! He did a 10 meter assisted swim and a 15 meter unassisted swim!!!! Unfortunately he did not get to compete in his 3'rd and final race because of some sanitation issues in the pool😥. In fact they had to close the whole special Olympics competition on Sunday at around 9:30! We are still very proud of Robb though!!! He doesn't get to do much stuff that he wants to do, so this is a real treat for him!! (Even if I have to get up at 6:30 to get ready for the Special Olympics!) here is a picture of Robb and I at the event:

Robb's new communication device

Robb just got a new communication device! He only knows how (JK he only wants :) ) to say ketchup, bread, juice, and hot dog, but his communication with it is getting better by the minute!! Communicating with words is something that Robb is new to, but we are all getting used to it and helping him along the way!
