more of our lil' miss!

While Miss Canela LOVES to be loved 24/7, she also enjoys watching out the window and protecting our house...you know from those dangerous walkers on the street, skateboarders, and crazy bicyclists. Her lil' bark is quite entertaining.

Barney and Shakey aren't convinced yet about Canela, but she is absolutely determined to fit in.

And last but not least...how sweet is Miss Canela all cuddled up with Max's stuffed animals? She loves to get in there and snuggle with Elmo and the gang.

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.
