May 3rd was the PDSSN (our local Down Syndrome Network) Spring Event.
Emma LOVES the inflatables. She must have gone down this slide 30 times or more. Every time it was time to get off it (for the magic show and to go home) she cried. I was so proud of her how she climbed up the ladder and went down the slide all by herself. The adults at the top of the slide helping out weren't quite sure at first she could go down by herself, but I just waved my hand and said, "she's fine to go by herself," and down she went over and over and over again.
Andrew and I went down once together. I asked him if he wanted to go again, and he said, "no". Maybe next year he'll enjoy them more.

Emma went down both on her belly and her bum.
This was the second inflatable. The kind where you jump around inside it. Emma thought the entrance/exit was a mini slide.
What a cutie! Andrew enjoyed watching his sister jump around.
One of these days when we have a fenced in yard we'll have to get our kids a swing/slide play set in our backyard. They would probably never want to come inside. Our neighbors across the common area got a playset and Andrew can see it from a distance. He sometimes runs half way across the common area saying, "swing" or "slide".
