Meet the second room

Welcome to the second room a CONIN. Once the kids have outgrown the baby room they are move to the second room. Here they are at the age where they are learning to sit up, turn over, crawl, and eventually walk with help.

Joaquin

Happiest little kid you’ll ever meet. He gives the biggest smiles. He is the most flexible little boy. He goes to Concepcion once a week to see a specialist for Down Syndrome. His parents didn’t want him once they found out that he had Down Syndrome, which is how he ended up at CONIN. We all claim him.

Magdalena

She is currently learning how to walk. Every time she sees us she gets the biggest smile and runs on over to us in her little walker. She doesn’t really look Chilean. She always has a lot of boogers, but is still a sweetheart. Leah has claimed her.

Marlene

6 months old. We’ve mentioned her before. We were there when she first came. She was filthy. She is such a calm little baby who rarely cries. She’s one of our star pupils with tummy time and rolling over. She looks like a little cabbage patch doll. Leah has claimed her.

Katherine

She is our little sumo baby. She loves tummy time. She is generally happy as long as she has her binky in her mouth. Leah has claimed her.

Isabella

She has the cutest little tweety bird cheeks. Her tongue reminds us of a snake. She has big beautiful eyes. Her laugh and smile are both contagious. Paige has claimed her.

Vicente the First

Whenever you first look at him he gets so excited and kicks his little legs and flaps his little arms, however once you walk away or put him down he cries. His hair sticks straight up. One time his eyes were completely glued shut after a nap. He was trying so hard to open them but no one noticed him. Surprisingly, he wasn’t fussing too bad about it. We noticed and had to get the attention of the tia’s to take care of the poor little boy. Jamie has claimed him.

Vicente the Second

6 months. He is one huge boy who sports a mullet which we have all wanted to cut a time or 2. He likes to just sit and watch everything. His parents were declared incapable to take care of him by an agency due to drug and alcohol abuse, so the police took him straight to CONIN. Leah has claimed him.

Juan Jose

This kid has amazing cheeks for kissing. He likes to just sit and stare, but when he smiles he is so cute. He is one solid kid. Jamie claims him.
