A Cowgirl turned Princess

I can’t believe it, my little Abby is going to be 3.  We celebrated with a cowgirl party this past weekend.  It was a great day filled with family, friends, food and games but mostly a whole bunch of kids having a great time:)

 

It was pouring rain so flame came to visit under the patio.  He is seriously the best pony I have ever known!  Abby’s friends loved brushing him and giving him carrots.

And as the presents were being opened I knew what was going to happen.  A princess transformation……

 

And this princess has graced us with her presence each day:) And I do love this little princess. 

Oh and her sister had a great time at the party too:)  Check out the new hair do and shoes! She is mastering her wave too.   

A good laugh...

Ever have one of those days where you need a good laugh? Here ya go......

Jocelyn continues to do amazingly well. She keeps us smiling and is a frequent reminder of what's really important in life:)

PS-not too sure why the video plays twice...I like it though:)

A “few” more pictures

Ok…so I may bore some of you with all these pictures but I tried my very best to pick a few to share.  We took A LOT of pictures, 496 to be exact, while at Disneyland.  There is no need to put captions on these pictures.  Our faces say it all:)

 

 

This face says a lot….

   

Yesterday Abby came out of her room with her backpack rolling behind her.  I questioned what she was doing and she replied, “I have all my things packed up to go to Disneyland next year!” 

I guess we’ll have to go back!

Says it all….

Oh, it is a happy place and we did have so much fun! Thanks Walt:)

PS- There are many more pictures I want to share but I am tired and need some sleep. I’ll share our amazing time with you all in the next few days…

I love watching my sweet little girl. You can see her thinking, exploring and learning:) This bead necklace is her favorite toy (and her sister's too). For all you worriers out there I only give it to her when I am watching. If you can't see the video (because this came as an email to you) go to our blog online. Turn off the music at the bottom of the blog to be able to hear Jocelyn! Have a happy Monday.

Fresh Mountain Air and Snow Cones

 

No one told Abby and Jocelyn that they were sick.  We decided to venture into Idyllwild to get some fresh mountain air and eat some snow cones….that always makes you feel better:) 

Look who learned to wave…..so cute!

And look who collected Acorns!

And look what we got to see…..fall colors!!!

And look who can do the splits (extreme flexibility is something down syndrome gives you)…pretty cool:)

Have a happy weekend everyone:)

Yep, it’s bronchitis times 2 at the Huth House.  I must say that I have the happiest, liveliest sick little girls that you can imagine:)  Other than an occasional hack you would never know there was anything wrong. 

My emotions have run rampant lately.  I am worried about my littles today, I worry about them tomorrow and worry about what they will be in a few years.  I especially worry about Jocelyn.  But then I am reminded to take joy in each day and treasure the right now.  

Let’s all say a prayer for Sweet Ella.  She is not feeling so well these days as she undergoes chemotherapy:(  I have another little friend, Colby, who will have surgery tomorrow morning.   These are two very special little ones who could use some extra special prayers.  I know their Mommy’s and Daddy’s could use a little prayer too….I can’t imagine……….

Give your kids, spouse, dog, cat or someone you love an extra tight squeeze today……
