On November 18 2009 at 4:02 am William Alan Bartosch was joyfully welcomed into our family. He weighed in at 7 lbs 9 oz and 20 in long. We were stunned to discover that he was born with Trisomy 21, or Down syndrome. We love him unconditionally from the top of his toe-head to the tips of his toes. We know that this diagnosis will not define him. He is a happy, healthy little boy that just happens to have an extra chromosome.



Follow us on this unexpected and exciting journey as we learn how to live life Will's Way.

Father's Day at the Lake

Will had a fun weekend at the lake for Father's Day.  He can't actually go in the lake because of his ear tubes, so he played in the pool filled with bottled water:)  Will can only go in treated, chlorinated water with his ear tubes unless he has custom ear molds to block out any water.  Maybe someday I will have the time to go and get the impressions done to have them made:(  For now, the pool was very entertaining!




Will is getting so close to taking a step!  He pulls himself up on EVERYTHING, lets go and leans foward like he is going to step, but then usually plops to his butt!  He is getting stronger and braver every day!  Slow and steady wins the race :)
