Kyler Sitting Taegen Sliding

Well, I've never had a blog before but we had some super exciting news so I thought "Hey, why not start a blog." Afterall, everybody else is doing it. For a brief overview, I have 15 month old twin boys, Taegen and Kyler. Kyler has down syndrome and gets therapy 3x a week. So yesterday, Ryan and I were talking to Kyler's speech therapist and Kyler was rolling around on the floor. Ryan looked over at Kyler and he was sitting up by the door. (He has never sat up from laying down by himself). We started cheering and clapping and the therapist almost started crying. It was awesome. So on June 26th Kyler Joe sat up by himself for the first time. Yeah!!! That is Kyler's story and here is Taegen's. Taegen was sliding down a waterslide last week and he would slide on his belly, feet first. Well, you would think that it would be second nature to lift your head so as not to have your face flat on the slide. Taegen obviously didn't get that memo because he didn't lift his head. He got off the slide and had a fat, bleeding lip and blood coming out of both nostrils. Needless to say, he didn't go down the slide again. Well, that is about all the super exciting things that are going on. Ryan took his first of three finals today and so two more until a three day break. Yes!!
