we survived :)

It was a chilly morning for a 5K. Jared finished around 30 min and Mom and I walked it in around 50 min.  IMG_8642 copy

mail They had lots of fun stuff for the kids to do to. Maya loved throwing the balls in the basket :) IMG_8647

And there was a real firetruck!IMG_8657 copy IMG_8658 copy IMG_8661 copy

Maya loved her first taste of snow cone :)IMG_8663 copy IMG_8665 copy IMG_8673 copy

We still had a few of these today :(, but all in all it was better than yesterday. Two strategies we are trying are 1.) putting her in a safe place when she is throwing a fit and walking away and not responding to her until she stops screaming and 2.) we are trying to avoid saying the word “no” because that seems to set her off. We are saying things like “not now”, "later”, or redirecting to something else. I’ll let ya know how that works out for us :)
