OHSU

On Friday you spent all afternoon at OHSU at the down syndrome clinic with mommy and daddy where you saw a bunch of different doctors, you went from one doctor to the next, (you saw 6 doctors) mommy said they were all so in awe over you saying how smart and cute you were and that they couldn't believe that you have only been home since March.

You have grown a lot too you are now 38inches and 31lbs you are almost off the down syndrome chart for growth and just under average on the "regular" charts

 

 

They said your hearing was excellent, you played a game where they would have a bucket of toy birds and when you would hear the sound you had to put a bird into the other bucket. You caught on the first time she showed you how to do this. And the lady was shocked

You said thank you to the Dr when she gave you some crackers and she was shocked.

 You built with blocks, strung beads, put little stones into a little bottle, you swung from a rope swing, climbed up a rock wall, made baskets in the basketball hoop,kicked a ball,threw a ball, rolled a ball,went down the slide all by yourself , pretended to make mommy and daddy lunch and serve them.and so much more!

You were a rock star and you rocked that place :D

I love you so much little Vahny  Love sissy <3

SANTA

Wow I havn't written in over a month I'm sorry buddy. You sure do love Santa we were at JJ JUMP for the local Down Syndrome winter social a few weeks ago and SANTA was there, you were jumping around in a bounce house that we could not get you out of (you were having lots of fun) then you saw santa and as fast as you could you got out of that bounce house and ran to him we thought that you might be "scared" of him but we were wrong

You LOVED him

This might just be the best picture with Santa that has ever been taken :D

We also went to the Bowling alley last week for daddys Christmas party for work and "santa" was there too

 

I can't wait to see you on Christmas morning opening all of your presents
