Birthday Boy’s Day

We went Bowling and met some other families who also use augmentative devices. Daniel had never been bowling before so we weren’t sure if he’d like it or not. As you can tell from the photos, he had a blast.

He tried it first with the ramp, he didn’t get a strike but he still beat his sister!!

He was showing Caitlin how to push the ball and make it go. She was having a hard time!!

Of course we can’t go without tasting everyone’s food!

Ms. Pat (Daniel’s Speech Therapist) put together the group meeting of all the AAC users. She knew today was Daniel’s birthday and surprised him with a little cake and a present too. Can you guess? YEP Daniel got a Thomas the Train and track!(see the scowl? I was touching his train. This obviously wasn’t met with approval!)

Here, Daniel is telling Daddy that he wants to bowl and knock the pins down.

Sister Caitlin has her hands full with nephew Zachary and Daniel on her lap at the same time.

And here is Daniel just hammin’ it up.

A couple photos of the birthday cake train. Not sure how great it’ll taste (we made the fondant from scratch first time ever!)

Daniel of course got his birthday crown too. Can you tell he likes trains?
