I got to see my parents today for the first time since october and my sister with aspergers for the first time in a year. I didnt take a lot of pictures but i thought id share a pic of my sister and bentley.

My sister with asbergers is very nervous around kids so i was very proud of her for holdng bentley for half an hour and she sang to him. @Gamera3000 i thought you in particular would really apprieciate how awesome it is she went out of her comfort zone in that way

@minnesotamomma91 love it! Some people with AS think of babies as being like cats and dogs and therefore grow to be pretty comfortable with them.

My little brother has high functioning autism and he seems very embarrassed by my being pregnant. I'm not sure how ill force a baby encounter with him.

My ex with AS says he's looking forward to taking care of a baby but is worried he won't be able to read his face.
