Beth Hi Nicole, I just read about your son Gavin and his Down syndrome, my new grandson Owen has Down syndrome also. He is almost a month old, we knew about his diagnosis before he was born. He is the love of our lives!

Beth,
Thank you for reading about Gavin. Actually he is my cousin. His mom is my Aunt Bridget. :-) I love him very dearly. His birthday is coming up, he is going to be two! I am not sure I can even fathom life without this little guy. I do not think it is a secret that he is my favorite cousin haha. Owen is sooo little! I bet he is just adorable and so itsy bitsy. I remember when Gavin was that young. One of my favorite pictures is when he was just a month old. My husband and I (fiance at the time) were sitting on my aunt's couch and I was holding him. It was Christmas. We actually used that photo in our wedding slideshow. I just love it. He was so fragile and innocent.
Where are you from? Have you guys thought about participating in your local Buddy Walk. It is every year. The Chicagoland one is every October.

You can find a local one on this site.... See More

They are so much fun and really just a great bonding experience. We have done two so far!

Thanks for contacting me!

We actually did our first Buddy Walk about a month before Owen was born. Owen's mom, my daughter Ashley, my other daughter,their dad, his roomate and one set of grandparents and myself all did the walk. I sent letters out to people I knew plus collected pledges from customers where I work. We had a good time, plan to do it each year from now on. Owen is still a little under 7 pounds, he is such a sweetheart!

A lot of people use versamark "ink" in order to give their projects a watermarked look. Another way to do this is to get a piece of colored card stock and stamp an image on the paper with the SAME color ink as the card stock. The image comes out as a darker shade of the actual paper...

Carol Fosdick Hi Nicolle, I'm a fellow stamper, who enjoys the paper arts. Would like to trade ideas with you.

NicolesMemories My kittie likes to help me work on things lol She even often tries to steal some of my supplies! I caught her with an embellishment sheet the other day. She kinda tore it up....I was going to throw it out until my hubby said to save it and make a scrapbook page of pics I take of her on my desk and then use the pieces she stole to decorate it. he is quite crafty haha

NicolesMemories Gavin was born in November 2007. Just a few hours after he came into this world we found out that he had Down syndrome.
He
has truly been a blessing on our lives. He has brought our family
closer together and has created a much stronger bond. We have watched
him grow and blossom over the past year and half and he has alre...ady
taught us so much in that short amount of time.

He loves to
laugh, play with his grandma, bite Auntie Jenny, hug Auntie Cole, stick
his tongue out at Auntie Missy, he is a momma's boy, basically he is a
ladies man. He has two big sisters, Sydney and Samantha who love him
dearly. He is the youngest of 11 grandchildren!!!! He sports a lil
mowhawk. He is working on learning how to walk! He is a White Sox fan,
just like his daddy.
