Wednesday and Thursday Origami

Most days are filled with doctors appointments, therapy and housework, mingled with snuggles and playtime. We are a pretty busy family! Things got busier with Benjamin's birth this last year since he has Down Syndrome and there is a lot about it you just can't google. The everyday goodness that is gift wrapped in such an adorable bundle makes living with someone with Down Syndrome an absolute joy. There are moments of frustration as with all children, as he is more similar to them than different, but there are so many more moments of plain happiness and contentment it makes it hard to remember the not so great times. In fact I need to get a shower, kids up and bathed and things packed for another trip to therapy in just about an hour so I'll make this brief. 

Yesterday, the design was a rain coat! Not necessarily needed but it was the coldest day yet! 

I love the paper designs! I just had hoped it would stand up by itself but no, it doesn't.

Not quite Barbie sized either so nothing can use it. Boo! 

Today's design is a Parakeet. It'll be interesting to see just how obscure these get as the year goes on...

It seems kinda cute and I suppose bird-like but not sure it looks just like a parakeet...we shall see what tomorrow brings! Off to get clean!!!
