This is what Kyle's best effort at lifting his head looked like.
a month ago he could get 45 degrees off the floor and two weeks ago...
he hit 90 degrees!!!! I'm so glad I've been taking these photos. I love to see the obvious progress he has made in the short time we have been working with our Physical Therapist.

Silly sisters.
Sara crashed on the couch after waking up with a bad dream.

MaryKate made this skirt all by herself!!!! I am so proud of her.
Kevin was teaching the kids how to skip rocks. Sara kept insisting the bigger the rock, the better.
Conquering the mountain.
So proud at his new found ability to shake a rattle!
Sleeping cozy, still likes to be swaddled occasionally.
"Hello, my name is Mr. Adorable" When he was born the Rapier's made an "It's a Boy" sign for Kyle. On the top Amy wrote "Mr. Adorable Anderson Addition" When I saw this shirt it was a no-brainer, I had to buy it. Besides, don't you agree?
Okay, I have an awful lot of these proud faces but seriously when you are 6 1/2 months old and figure out how to do something as difficult as holding onto a rattle WHILE shaking it, wouldn't you be proud too?
Cuddling with his biggest sister, Haleigh. I love how he is starting to hold on while you are holding him.
Not asleep... Deep in thought.
He finally does not scream during bath time and actually smiles on occasion at his big sister.
Was spent in the ER with Nikolai getting stitches in the bottom of his foot. I am only surprised it actually took 10 years for him to get his first stitches. It was a very long and exhausting night and his foot is healing up nicely. He had to go around on crutches all last week but is hobbling okay now and gets them taken out on Tuesday.
Well, after looking at this big happy family photo where all four kids are not Happy, I'd have to contend that there is... unfortunately this was actually the FIRST one we participated it. We lost two kids at it and had a blast (I mean, besides being afraid of the Easter Bunny :). It was held at Rocking R Ranch and hosted by "Sharing Down syndrome of AZ"
And finally on Easter itself we held one at our house with our kids, grand kid, and friends kids.
One of Kyle's most recent accomplishments includes being able to grab a toy and bring it to his mouth. Here he demonstrates this skill and one of my other favorites: talking :)
