Ups and Downs

My girls and I are planning on walking this Saturday for Ups and Downs.  It is a 3k walk to help raise funds for the Calgary Down Syndrome Association.  We will be joined by my sister in law, Kyra, her girls Ryley, Teagan and Kelsey.  My family is awesome and I am so grateful to have their love and support through our journey.

I just recently learned about Ups and Downs and already know that it is an organization that I will become a part of.  It is a group of experienced parents of children with Down syndrome that offer support to parents of newborns with Down syndrome.  They sponsor workshops and seminars, have monthly coffee mornings where parents can get together, as well as host a bunch of events like Street Meet 2013. How great is that?

I am very excited to meet some of the parents and children this weekend.  I am sure they will have a lot more information for me as I continue to learn more about being the best parent I can be to my new baby boy.

I want to thank my girls, Kyra and my nieces (love you all!) for being such a huge part of Baby Lang's Gang this Saturday and to all who have sponsored our walk.  Your support and generosity are overwhelming!

I will be posting pics following the walk...hopefully the rain holds off!  It will be a great experience nonetheless :)
