Best of: The beginning

I'm setting up a few scheduled posts to show up in the next couple days. These will be links to a post or a group of posts that I feel have some particular meaning to me or possibly interest to you. Several of you have mentioned to me that you've been going through the archives during my little break, and I can't tell you how honored I am that you would take the time to do so. Thank you.

So by request, I'll link to a few highlights, or possibly lowlights, we'll see.

Since many of you have joined up with this roller coaster in the more recent past, maybe the last year or so, I'll start from the beginning. Here's where it all began, July 2007. And remember, I still receive comments on old posts, so feel free to leave one. In fact, I'd love to get a take on how you feel about them since time has passed and even my own perspective may have morphed a little.

Enjoy. And thanks for reading.

We'd seen them on a few of our little blog friends, and I thought they were adorable. And the idea of keeping Braska warm while being able to access her g-tube without having to undress her was very appealing. So when we received our surprise pair from our friends out East, we were just plain giddy! I quickly ordered several more pairs to go with her wardrobe. It didn't take anytime at all for BabyLegs to become my standard gift at baby showers, and I especially loved sending them to moms that I found who had fresh little new babies with DS. They're perfect for everyday with a long-sleeved onesie, they are great under a little dress, and they are so helpful with thera...

Peek at tomorrow

This weekend we were at my in-laws' place for a very quick visit. We went largely for a housewarming for Cheryl and Ethon, which was Sunday afternoon. They have a pretty darn cool place, so yay for you guys! Sunday morning pictures are normal, we do them alot. This week, before we left for church, Carole took a few pics of my little poonchin. They didn't all turn out great, as she kept making funny faces and moving at the last second. I stole them off her camera for my collection, and when I looked at this one I just kind of stopped. It's not any super great picture. It's cute, but hey, how could it not be? She's waving at herself, that's the reason the hand is up. But that's not what I saw. Go ahead, click on the picture. Can you see it? I don't see Down syndrome. I don't see a feeding tube. I don't even see a tough cookie, open-heart surgery survivor. It's not my favorite picture of her ever, but I can't hardly stop looking at it. This...
