Here he is, my little demolition man! I don’t know who is prouder: Vince or me?

After 16 years abroad, I moved back to my native Sweden. My husband is Austrian and we met in the US where I lived from 1996-2006, and then we moved to Alp-land aka Austria where we lived til 2013. I am still trying to get over that culture shock.
We have two kids. Vincent, our first born was born on May 12, 2006 with an extra chromosome aka Down syndrome (Translocation 21;21). Edgar was born October 10, 2009, but only 46 chromosomes there.
I admit to thinking it was the end of our world when we got the results of the blood test showing our son had DS, 5 days after Vince was born. I was so wrong! Though everything is not easy, life is a lot of fun! That extra chromosome really did not change much.
I started running again in 2011 and completed my first half marathon in October 2011. In 2012 I completed two half marathons and a handful of other races. Running is now a big part of my life and I run at least five days a week. Both for fun and for peace of mind. I am starting to think a full marathon would be fun. Maybe in 2014...
This blog is about living life Upside Down. Enjoy.

Go Vince. I haven’t seen him for a while, and he is really growing up.
I recognise those stacking cups – both my children played with them for hours. Or perhaps I should say i spent many hours building them back up 🙂
Vad söt han är när han klappar händerna…och givetvis jätteduktig!
Don’t you love that happy excited face!! So cute – he’s doing a great job knocking down those cups 🙂
I simply MUST watch this every morning…it is the best way to start a day. Braska even chimed in with some wiggles and giggles when he started clapping.
Very Cute! Very Cute!
Vad duktiga ni är, båda två:)
Så stolt över dig Kicki, över allt du gör och åstadkommer.
