Day 31 of 31

Happy Halloween!!!!!


I am so excited! I did it, I blogged 31 for 21!!! Not that it was that hard to do but I am so glad that I participated in increasing Down Syndrome Awareness!

Addy went to her First Steps playgroup this morning and I was lucky enough to get to take her since the kids and I are out of school today. She is going to be an octopus for Halloween but her costume is pretty toasty and I knew she would be burning up so Jarika and I threw her Hippy ensemble together this morning! Not bad for flying by the seat of our pants! I began pouring down rain as we left so her make up tattoos didn't stay very well, but that's okay. Here are some pix of Addy at the party.









Here is the cookie that Addy helped decorate. She was supposed to spread the frosting and use her pincer grasp to spread the sprinkles. She used to spoon to spread pretty good, but the sprinkles went flying!



Here is Addy throwing a fit because she did not want to play with the blocks. She just wanted to throw them. Isn't it terrible when we tell our kids "NO"???

This is our friend and neighbor, Chandler. Isn't he adorable!?!!? He is two months younger than Addy. He is so fast! He can run and run!

Such adorable pictures, we did not dress Kara up either, her costume is very hot, and I hope she can wear it tonight, it is 90 AGAIN, wishing for cooler weather here.
