Last Monday was our local Down syndrome group's holiday party. It was a blast last year and this year was a lot of fun too. The food was great and there was plenty of room for the kids to run around, including a dance floor that Alexander really cut up. He had a sweaty head within 5 minutes of us arriving. Besides the fun music and activities, Santa's elves, the Girl Scouts, showed up to give each kid a stuffed animal. Our local DSN did a great job once again. I'm happy that Alexander will have memories of "always" playing with kids of different abilities.

I rarely paint my nails. It takes too long, I mess them up, and they chip within a day or 2. Well, I painted my nails and turned my back for a second and this is what happened. I found him trying desperately to wash it off in the bathroom.



Sophie got a bear (looks a little like a rat if you ask me) that has a neat texture

Alexander chose a puppy for his gift
