3 Beautiful Girls!!!

Ella had 2 friends over today for a playdate, and they had a lot of fun. Well, maybe the mommies had more fun, but that's okay;) Ella and the other two girls, Kenna (16 months) and Olivia (12 months) all have that extra chromosome in common! We met through the girl's ECI therapist, and it has been so wonderful for me to talk to the moms. We don't get together nearly enough but when we do of course we talk about our daughters. What is so amazing is that all 3 of the girls are doing SO GOOD!! It has especially been good for me because those 2 are so positive and they are uplifting to me! We tried, of course at the end of their playdate, to get a picture of the girls together - which trying to get three 1 year olds to sit still is not easy. They were so tired and had the mouth wide open, I just want to sleep look. My mom wanted me to get a picture of them and send it out to all of the parenting magazines out there, and tell them that we want to see pictures, not just articles, but in advertising and other stories of children with Down syndrome and other disabilities. These aren't the greatest pics so we will have to get together again soon and take a picture from the start! Kenna, striking a pose. Olivia, watching her mommy.
