Yesterday I think I messed my entire day up. I thought it was today. I went to all my appointments for today making myself look really silly. Now today I have to get them all ready again and go back to all the appointments again. I am not an very organized person at all. Me and Tony have been trying forever to help get me to be better organized, but no luck yet. You would think with 10kids I would be!
Today I have a lot of extra kids with me because all my kids have friends that sleep over. It gets really loud at this house when we do this, but they all have so much fun. All the kids play together very well.
I'm trying to find some type of group here in San Antonio where they have other moms with kids with downs. I only know of one friend, and we do not see them that often. I want to know what other kids are doing at their ages, and what my kids should be doing right now. I never knew anything about downs before we adopted these babies, so I am still in the learning stage. I know there are so many times that I expect that they can do the same things as my other kids, and I have to stop and think, no they cant. If anyone knows of any type of groups, please tell me what info you may have. Ill leave you with a few pictures of the kids.
Hi! Just in case you don't have these handy, here is a site with a good set of charts of fine motor, gross motor, and communication skills for children with Ds. (You will need to scroll down): http://www.down-syndrome.org/information/development/early/?page=7
