DSGO Library Center fun



The kids and I went to Springfield this morning for a little fun at The Library Center with the Down Syndrome Group of the Ozarks. Only three of us showed up but we still had a great time! Addy loved the music time and she did everything that was instructed and followed all of the directions. When they were told to stand up I gave her her walker and she just pushed it out of the way and stood independently :) I know she does this at home but she never has anywhere else :) She did great! I couldn't get in a good spot for pix but you get the idea! Addy also got to see her most favorite person in the world! Mr. Berns, her music teacher at school, was at the library with his precious little girl! Addy was a little confused as to why he was there and not at school, it was quite cute! I wish I could have stayed longer but we were going out to eat (at Red Robin, YUM!) with my mom and to Target for some back to school shopping and get some shampoo for Addy. I was advised to get Paul Mitchell's baby shampoo but they didn't carry it and they recommended Burt's Bees shampoo. We'll try it and see if it helps at all. Addy's poor little head is looking pretty sad. You can't really tell when it's up in a pony tail because some longer hair covers the most bald spot :) I guess if she goes bald we'll just have to get some really cute headbands :) Jake also wants us to pierce her ears too, how cute is he?
Have I mentioned that it's unbearably hot here???

Looking at your temp mine said 118 today and it actually was 110 our 32nd. straight day over 100 and no change in sight.

Hope the shampoo helps a bit with the hair problem.
I enjoy reading about your family but rarely comment.

holy yuk, it is hot there! So, I haven't been around in a while...why does she have bald spots? Maybe try an all natural shampoo too...
