31 for 21: Thursday School

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 go to school at TWO schools and I like them both.]

KiKi has a new school.  It’s at a church that’s kind of by our house, and she goes there sometimes on Tuesdays for a little bit when she wants to go to school like me.

But on some Thursdays when Mommy has to go do cleaning work, then we both go there, and we call it Thursday School that day.  I don’t have school at my school on Thursdays, so I get to go with KiKi.

These are some pictures from our first day of going there together a few weeks ago. 

First I have to tell KiKi that when we walk by the cars area, we have a buddy and hold hands.

Then I go ahead because I’m older, and I have to show here how to do it.

Then she walks with me and we go to find our classes.

We really like Thursday school, and KiKi even likes to go on Tuesdays sometimes too.  The teachers are all really nice there and we get to play outside and do crafts and have snacks.  KiKi always gets upset when Mommy comes to get us, and she tries to hide so she doesn’t have to go home.  She is silly like that.

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
