Sofia at Home! She still won't take a nipple, but she loves her pacifier. She will take a wee bit from a bottle, but not much. That's Momma's goal, and mine too! -- to do whatever it takes to get rid of that darned last 'tube' -- the NG!

Trying with a bottle, but to no avail! Sofia just turns away and rejects it. Kids!!

We finally have a picture of Sofia with a bow in her hair! Ain't she sweet!

Sofia is learning to reach out for things. She's still a little awkward, but she's getting there.

Mirrors! One way to keep little kids amused! I was lucky to get such a nice shot.

Look Momma! I can hold my head up!

This is a big step ahead for Sofia. Children with Down Syndrome often have problems with muscle tone and for many, just holding up their heads is difficult. Sofia seems to be doing just great! To help with this muscle tone problem I love to give her massages, and when I do, she gets a look on her that is kind of like a puppy getting their tummy rubbed! She really enjoys them!
