Not a toy

All is well, no one is injured. But hopefully lessons have been learned.

Braska's into climbing everything lately. Tonight, this looked like a challenge, apparently. Guess who won...

    Oh! I'm glad she's ok, too. I know as a mom how your heart just stops when you realize what's happening.

    It looks like a toy. In fact it looks like a bouncy toy. But...

    Yikes! Just read the post above and glad to hear she is ok and not even a bump on her!

    We used to say that Kayla had a high tolerance for pain too as things just didn't seem to bother her like they did other kids. And if she did cry over something it was over with in seconds. I think I remember reading somewhere that there is some coorelation between Ds and having a high pain threshold, but I don't remember exactly where I read that or what the connection was.

    OMGosh...Melana is 21mo old and very mobile, she has been going up the stairs for months on end now....but the other day, she fell down at least 8 of the 15 stairs in my house. I heard it happening, ran to stop her and she freaked out! SHE has NO pain tolerance and screamed for at least 30-45min. NO damage was done, she is fine, not a mark on her, but my gosh is that not the scariest thing EVER!

    Glad Braska is ok.

Can I get a do-over?

If you are in need of a laugh at another's expense, I invite you to read on... really, it's totally ok. I can take it. This might end up long, but I wanna remember this special day. Oh so special... Today is my first day to have both girls and be on my own. Yeah, it's been two weeks, but I'm apparently slow at learning how to deal with this kind of thing. I knew it would be a challenge, but I thought with starting way early, we could make it. The quick ending is that we did make it...but that's not really the whole story. Kinlee's been sleeping til about 9 am or so after getting up twice in the night. That's ok, I'm dealing with it. But since Braska is supposed to be at school at 10 am on Mondays, I thought I better not sleep in like I prefer, and instead, I should get up and get things moving earlier to be sure we're on time. Not a problem, since Braska decided to be up twice last night in addition to Kinlee's two times. One time overlapped...so...

New Fave-o Site

Get a cup of good hot chocolate, put on your comfy clothes, and settle in with some non-rushed time to check out Dan Drinker's site . I can't even tell you how much I love watching these videos and reading what his family has written about him. I feel like I want to tune into the Dan Drinker 24-hour channel or something. Dan is a young man with DS who is living and loving life, and his younger brother Will captures much of it on video. It's priceless, in my opinion. I just love it. Check out the blog, watch some videos, tell them that you've been there. I wish this guy lived near me! The most recent post, about Breaking Up with Christine , is funny and poignant. Here's a couple of my other favorite videos so far... I've still got more to watch! His 7th Prom A Basketball Date with Sarah

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h...
