Go Cameran! I have a feeling that little Miss Cameran Leah is going to be doing lotsa things all at once, making for some interesting days to come in the Gerber household....
Ryan's birthday was pretty mellow. We went to Lancaster for the day, shopped, and ate at a restaurant on the outskirts of the city. Having the evening to ourselves was definitely the highlight!
That same weekend we also parted with our younger dog, Nala, who is now living at the home of one of Ryan's coworkers. This family has a house full of kids, and has more time to devote to Nala's needs. So, even though my head and my heart disagreed at first and I miss her, I know she is better off. Jasmine has been loving life as an only doggie again too. She gets the attention that Nala hogged for 4 1/2 years. Not only that, but she is actually mellow enough to keep inside AND in the same room when Cameran's entourage is at the house doing various interventions! Double plus. So, all in all, it is a good change.
Shots were Friday. By shots I mean Cameran's 15 month and some of her 18 month shots since she was unable to receive immunizations while on her seizure steroids. She never tolerates them well, and this weekend was no exception. Finally, four days later, she is beginning to feel better and her fever broke for the first time today.
We are busy gearing up for this year's Buddy Walk! Cameran's Crew is growing still, and we have 6 fundraisers including myself. So far we have exceeded $1,000 in support of the inclusion and acceptance of people with Down syndrome. I never used to be much of a fundraiser-ish type of person, but I have shamelessly and probably to some, obnoxiously posted and reposted links to Cameran's page of Facebook, if for no other reason, to raise awareness (and share a cute picture too!)
Finally, here are a few pictures from the past few weeks...
cuteness!
