31 for 21: My Halloween Party

October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month. So we’ll highlight a few little special things about what DS means in our house.

[I have Down syndrome. I like to play dress up on Halloween. And I like to have fun with my friends at school.]

On Friday, we had a party at school and everyone got to wear their cute costumes. KiKi came to school to be at our party, and she had her ladybug on, too!  I was glad to see her!

We took a little walk through the halls so everyone could see all our costumes.

Then we went back to the classroom to play some games. But first we decorated cupcakes with fun stuff.  I just ate yogurt pretty much.

Then we tried a few of the games.

Then we had spooky story time.

Me and KiKi stood by the wall for a picture beforew we took off our costumes.

That night, we went to work with Mommy because Daddy was busy.  Most of the time we played in the playroom, but at the end we tried to help Mommy some.  Except we thought playing in this box was way more fun.

  2. Both of them look so precious in their little costumes. Thanks for sharing them with us!

    I am sure that both of them would look so cute in frilly dresses that have the petty coat slip (not sure what they are really called. LOL!)under them. I do not seem any like them anymore but I always thought they were so precious on little frilly girls. These dresses reminded me of them.

    Love,

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Nebraska meets Indiana

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
