Day 173
Love this little outfit. So... I'm going to be vulnerable for a minute. I think about Down Syndrome every single day, pretty much every time I look at her. And a lot of the time I can tell she has it. She has tell tale signs like upward slanted almond shaped eye and the folds behind her neck etc... But there are brief moments when I can't tell just by looking and even though I love her as is - it's kind of nice to have moments where I just see her as a baby - my daughter and not my daughter, who happens to have DS. I think this picture particularly makes her look "typical". She weighed in at 10lbs. Different doctors' scales put her at different weights which is irritating because she was 10lbs 2oz last week. Her thyroid is doing well on the new dosage.
Day 48
Look at that face. I made one of these for Jack too. Here's his: Cuddle bug. This bear is from their daycare lady, Donna. We went to our neighbor's holiday party tonight. Their niece has a son who is 2 who has downs syndrome. We knew they were going and wanted to meet them. They were really nice and their son, DJ, was super cute. It's nice to know people in the area who've been through it.
