I lied

You're stuck with me for one more week of consecutive blogging.  November 1st-7th is Down syndrome Awareness week in Canada.  I know, I know.  I don't live anywhere near Canada.  And I hope I never do (remember, I'm a Florida girl.)  But I do have some Canadian readers.  And like I said in my post earlier this week, just because Down syndrome Awareness month is over, doesn't mean that we stop trying to raise awareness. 

Okay, that said.  I still don't have a whole lot else to say about Down syndrome.  But as usual, I have cute pictures, and I can always come up with something to say about Kennedy.  Today she continued to prove what a diva she is.  She was totally willing to practice her crawling skills for me this morning.  In fact, she even got up on her knees on her own.  This is huge progress people.  Until today, the only time she'd get on her knees was when she was sleeping!  Of course, when she tried to move, she face planted.  Fortunately, we have a squishy new exercise mat, so her face plant was softened. 

Mom!  Don't take my picture.  I have bed head from my pigtails!  I don't care if I AM on my knees!

How the heck am I supposed to do this mom?

Today was EI.  We met Amanda at the park, in hopes that it would make for a more pleasant and productive session.  Kennedy loved it.  She was talking away and enjoying every minute of Amanda pushing her on the swing.  Then she took her out and actually tried to do something with her, and Kennedy threw a fit.  

Hey mom, that's my friend swinging next to me.

And these next two pictures made me realize how big she's getting.  Seriously, who said my baby girl could turn into a little girl so quick?
