"Kids with Downs Just Don't Get Any Better Than This"

Those are the words we heard from the developmental pediatrician on Tuesday.  You just can’t get better feedback than that.  I’m sure there are kids out there with Downs who have done things earlier than her or faster, but what a great compliment nonetheless.  We just have to brag for a minute here.  Addison is in the 18-24 month range for her social and adaptive behaviors.  Just this week she decided to start standing on her own, using a fork, and has picked up at least 5 new signs.  This has been one of those weeks that makes it all worth it!
