Man of the Forest
A few people have asked me about Sylas's name and what it means. Sylas stands for Man of the Forest. This meaning is quite appropriate as Sylas was born on Earth Day. Sylas spelled "Silas" was also a missionary companion to Paul and Timothy in the Bible. Here are a few pictures of Sophie helping with Sylas's sponge bath. She was so excited to help since she LOVES "her baby Sylas".
My name is Elena, and I am a 36 yr old mother of three fantastic kids, Sam 8, Sophie 5, and Sylas born April 22, 2009. I began this blog when I was pregnant with Sylas, shortly after finding out about his sweet extra 21st chromosome. My husband and I have been married over 12 memorable years. I am mostly a stay at home mom, but I work occasionally to keep up to date with physical therapy and my specialty, lymphedema therapy. I am guessing that my next passion will be learning about the pediatric realm of P.T, but likely I will be on the other end as a client's mom.
I enjoy gardening, baking, looking for sea glass with the family, ...ect. and learning how to do this "blogging" thing. I feel blessed with everything in my life.

Baby in Belly!
Baby at 27 weeks!
Baby looks very similar to u/s pictures done at 20 weeks when we found out about his "enhanced" chromosomes. He looks a lot like Sam as a baby.
Elena, he is absolutely adorable! How is he doing? Feeding well, sleeping?? I just have 2 weeks now, can't wait!!
