31 for 21 A Valient Effort

Emilia in the NICU, just a day old. She is wrapped in one of the handmade blankets we received from a kind stranger. I will always treasure it.



OK Cammie I'm in!! I'm making a valiant effort to partake in Down Syndrome Awareness and post everyday. At least a picture. I'm doing this in an attempt to help or comfort anyone who is in the same situation I was in just one year ago. I was about to give birth to a baby with DS and had no idea what to expect or how I would react. All I can say is ...IT'S ALL GOOD!

Thought I would start when Emilia was born and work my way up to the present, since it's her birthday month it seems like a good plan. I didn't start this blog until Em was six months old so now you get to see her from the beginning

  1. I am so excited to view your journey from the beginning! A year ago this month (when Justin was 6 months old) we found out he had Down syndrome. October will always be a very special month to me!
    Beautiful baby...

  3. Oh sweet Emilia!! And Stephanie..of course that isn't chocolate that Ella is eating in her photos!! I wouldn't do that. Actually I was going to try chocolate pudding but I didn't have any. We thought that if she would just try things maybe she would try more. Today she was actually eating a mixture of bananas, prunes and carrots...hence the lovely brown color!!
