Return of the family of 4

KiKi came home from Grammy’s today.  She didn’t want to have anything to do with me.  She was giddy to see her sister, and they wrestled and hugged and giggled like crazy. But when given the option, she returned to Auntie Julia, her new best pal.  After Grammy and Auntie Julia left, Kinlee wouldn’t even come to me to get up from her nap.  She stayed in bed almost 40 minutes just waiting for someone ELSE to offer her a way out.

Tonight she warmed up some as she walked all over the living room.  Little crazy girl.  Fall down, get up, walk walk walk… fall down, get up, walk walk walk…  I was tired just watching.  And Braska didn’t even attempt to keep up. 

The flip-flop has happened, as far as gross motor is concerned. Kinlee has passed Braska right by.  So far, no one seems to mind at all.

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

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...
