Monday Jan 21



In honor of the late Martin Luther King, we had a handful of Texas gals come up to visit for the long weekend, and we had a great time. Addison is getting bigger and better every day. She's been working very hard on nursing and she's been very successful for the last four days. She is talking to us much more these days, and is much more aware of her surroundings. She will follow people accross the room and she recognized people's voices when they haven't been around for a little bit. She certainly isn't crawling, but she has figured out that if she wiggles enough, she can scoot her way towards something she wants. I don't think that makes her mobile yet, but it does mean we can't just leave her lying on the couch any longer while we run to the grocery store and assume she's not going anywhere. (That's a joke, don't call CPS.)




On Thursday night, we attended a meeting for DSAT (Down Syndrome Assoc. of Tulsa). It was a bit overwhelming, but it was very good to meet other families with similar situations as ours. It was also good to meet some of the children with DS and see how they really are just like any other kid. On Tuesday morning, we will be visiting and touring the Little Light House here in Tulsa. Addison is on the two year waiting list, so we need to check it out as soon as possible and see if it really is a place where we want her to be educated. We've heard many wonderful things about the school, and we are looking forward to learning even more. Please pray that it is everything we hope for. Other than that, we are here at the house, using today to just relax and hang out with our little cuddle bug. Enjoy some of the new pics from this weekend.
