31 for 21: Read this. Paint that.

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 read books and make pictures.]

(Pssssst… to all of you who have become buddies of mine in the last couple of days, HI!  I’m so glad you like my stories!!! Thank you!)

I’m still trying to get better, so there’s not really any new pictures to show you. Daddy wants me to be extra careful for my eyes, so I didn’t get to go to dance class today or to the playground with my friends.  KiKi went and she had fun.  I can’t wait to go next time.

So I’ll show you some pictures from last week.  KiKi is getting really good at reading. She just picks up books and knows all the words! It’s so cool!  She reads books to me, and I like that a lot.

KiKi also kept asking Mommy for paints lately.  So she got some for KiKi to try to use and see if she liked them.  And she does . LOTS!

I did some painting too.  But I don’t like it as much.  It was fun for a few minutes though.  How’s my hand look, Miss J? Smile

Hopefully I’ll get to do more playing soon… but it’s not so bad to relax for a while!

A good fashion statement

I’ve heard people talk about a fa-shun stayt-munt .  Mommy told me how to spell it right so you would know what I mean…fashion statement.  Have you heard about this?  I’m not sure, but I think it’s when you put on pretty clothes and then tell someone something.  And I have something to tell you!! So here’s the pretty clothes… these were our Sunday pictures from yesterday.  Daddy took them while Mommy was getting ready for church. Me and KiKi were playing and we didn’t stand still to do good Sunday pictures.  But Daddy sneaked in some good ones. And now, here’s what I’ve got to tell you….. To celebrate my new pretty blog that we worked really hard on, me and Mommy are going to be giving some fun things away to somebody who likes to read our stories!  Do you like to get stuff for just reading my stories? And here’s how you can get stuff… You’re going to like it!  And there’s more than one thing!  1. Leave a comment on THIS POST TODAY (Monday) for an “early entry.”  (That mea

Mommy report: Exciting night!

Pardon the interruption into your regular evening, but we have something to share!! Daddy gets the credit for this one. He had her in the bed for cuddles and snuggles, and in a matter of 15 minutes, she's got it down pat!!! She's going around now saying, "Name! Braska! (Ba-ka)" I'm always hesitant to "brag" on her too much, for fear of offending or something to those who struggle... as that's a real thing in the world of delays...but I am so proud of this girl! More speech news soon, but I just had to throw this up and cheer for my girl!
