Hi! It's me, Aiden! And I'm here to tell you about our local Buddy Walk.

This is my 4th year participating in the Buddy Walk. And I just turned 3! My first one was when I was only 2 months old. Last year, I really liked petting the baby kangaroos that where there.

This year, the Down syndrome Association of Tulsa will be holding it's annual Buddy Walk on October 18th, 2009. Union High School is donating their track for everyone to come out and celebrate. So, I want EVERYONE to come out and celebrate with me between the hours of 2pm and 4 pm! It is a lot of fun with activities for all members of the family, whether they have Down syndrome or not.

The track at Union High School is located 6636 South Mingo Road (66th & Mingo) in Tulsa The track is located to the west of the high school.

I just started my 3rd year at the Little Light House of Tulsa. And I am learning to walk independently. My signing vocabulary is growing almost as fast as I am and I am learning more and more every day. I just had another open heart surgery in July and Momma says that she can tell a huge difference in my activity levels.

She blogs daily about my milestones and achievements on my personal webpage, A is for Aiden. Since October is Down syndrome Awareness Month, we are participating in Get it Down, 31 for 21. Every day, she does a post about Down syndrome and what it is like to have a child with Down syndrome.
