our adventure to the space needle

Yesterday Mommy and I joined some friends (Dominic, Ava, Jennifer) to visit the Space Needle in Seattle. What a fun Christmas celebration for everyone! Dominic also had two caregivers with him to help, so we had quite the group. :)

First I got to meet Santa in a fancy new rocket ship. I'm sure he was cool and all, but I was MUCH more interested in the computer guide telling us where to go! :)

Then my friend Ava and I decorated cookies. We really liked that!

Mommy and I really liked playing with all the fun gadgets to explore the city. I would make it go super fast!

The view was amazing, but it was really windy.

Here's our fun group all done and ready to go home. What a day!

I'm definitely done. G'night.

charge syndrome

CHARGE syndrome is a recognizable (genetic) pattern of birth defects which occurs in about one in every 9-10,000 births worldwide. It is an extremely complex syndrome, involving extensive medical and physical difficulties that differ from child to child. The vast majority of the time, there is no history of CHARGE syndrome or any other similar conditions in the family. Babies with CHARGE syndrome are often born with life-threatening birth defects, including complex heart defects and breathing problems. They spend many months in the hospital and undergo many surgeries and other treatments. Swallowing and breathing problems make life difficult even when they come home. Most have hearing loss, vision loss, and balance problems which delay their development and communication. All are likely to require medical and educational intervention for many years. Despite these seemingly insurmountable obstacles, children with CHARGE syndrome often far surpass their medical, physical, educational, and social expectations.
