Raising Children with Down Syndrome
We all love to talk about our babies achievements. I'm no different I ![]()
am so proud of my boy Oopie. These kids of ours are phenominal they do and are so spectacular. So I am giving you the Opportunity to show your pride and list their newest achievement. My boy just got a clean bill of health from his Cardiologist. That is amazing to me.He also is trying out 5 new words., flower,leaf,drink,baby,and ball. Some he says others he signs. We think the signing is as important as the speaking. Please feel free to brag.............

by jjamom on Sep. 3, 2008 at 10:40 AMAlex's newest achievement (besides starting preschool today) is saying a new phrase. Unfortunately for us the new phrase happens to be "I don't like" and he is using it constantly lol! But I'll take it! |

by Lovechild82 on Sep. 3, 2008 at 11:01 AMI know this sounds krazy but I am happy as a bumble bee this week cuz Kimber has started to jump on her bed, heh. She has also just recently started asking full out questions YAY!!! Some of her questions are "Where did it go?" In which she will reply 'There it is!", "Who is it?" In which she will reply "It's DADDY!(or who ever it happens to be that walks through the door). Also She for the past couple of weeks has been keeping her Pull Ups dry between potty breaks...now if only we could get the night time training over with :) |

by Andrea337 on Sep. 3, 2008 at 2:47 PMYea for all you mommies and your kidos! Cadence just all of a sudden about 10-15 min ago decided to try to get into standing by herself...yea! She pulls herself up while holding on to something if she's cued, but has no desire to do it on her own. Which is the way everything has been for her. No desire to play, crawl, sit up and then one day she just did it! I'm hoping she is standing on her own by Christmas! It has been a long tough road for her but she's progressing. I am so happy to see her try to get on her hands and feet that's huge for her:0) Again congratulations on all your children's accomplishements! P.S Cadence starts a sign and sing class on 9/17 so i am hoping to be seeing more talking and or singing. Oh and I swear she's saying "I did it". My hubby says she is and it's at the right times too! Yea!!!! |

by kalista on Sep. 3, 2008 at 5:26 PMWay to go, kids! It's great what they can accomplish. Nathan is 18 months now (16 months adjusted). He is jabbering VERY expressively and understands a lot. He has some signs that seem to be his versions of "more" and "all done", as well as "up". He is really good at communicating that he doesn't want to do something or does not want something :p Nathan is pulling up and seems to want to stand, so I think soon he will be cruising the furniture. He is very mobile, crawling and climbing. He likes to climb over me if I lay on the floor, and the other day he got up onto the couch-- I had taken the cushions off so he could pull up, and then he climbed up and sat on the couch backwards. |
