October is Down Syndrome Awareness Month

This month is Down Syndrome awareness month. Have you hugged a Down Syndrome kid today? If not, I'll give Cody a hug for you! :)

Before we had Cody, we never knew anything about Down Syndrome. When we went to school, they were always in the Special Education class and never mainstreamed with "normal" kids like they are today.

We usually forget that Cody has DS since he is a smart little boy. Before he was born, we were worried about how he would function, learn, socialize, etc. Now, he makes us so proud to be his parents! He is so full of love and has hugs and kisses for friends, families and strangers alike! His fan-base gets bigger and bigger with each day!!!

This picture is a couple months old, but I never remembered to post it. Cody has a thing for shoes and tries EVERYONE's shoes on. The bigger, the better.
