Hello again!!

Daddy and AJ on the Boat Memorial Day Weekend!!!



Best Friends by default ..... the 2 AJ's


At the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Walk!!!








Hello everyone! Well life is a little hectic now....Mommy is back to work and Daddy is home with Alexander. This is my fourth week of work and it is tiring. I am working back at Glazer's but in the Inventory Department. It is nice to get away but if we didn't need insurance I wouldn't be working. Also, I just got approved for the Master's program in Kinesiology with the emphasis in Adaptive Physical Education. I will just take one class next semester but its a start.

Alexander is doing wonderful. He sat up for a few seconds all by himself on Saturday night. He holds on to things if you put him next to a table or chair. He is really moving along. His Developmental Therapist comes on a Wednesday and the Physical Therapist on Friday. He is starting to learn sign language too. By the way he is still smiling too. :)

John got a notice in the mail that they have started working on his work visa. He can't wait to start working. It will probably be the middle of August or September. In the meantime we are looking for a babysitter to stay at home with AJ.

As a family we have been very busy....we have been going on the boat, doing charity walks and just enjoying the HOT summer! :)

DS Walk



Well over the weekend we went to the Budddy Walk sponsored by the Down Syndrome Group of Greater ST Louis. John saw it advertised and we thought we should do it. We had so much fun. There was 13 of us that went out to support Alexander. They had all kinds of kids toys , a painting area and free food and drinks after the walk. It was really a good time. It was very HOT that day though.
