the ball pit

On Saturday we celebrated a friend's birthday at the Jungle Playland. This was our first time...but it certainly won't be the last. It was so great!!!

Max LOVED the ball pit. The funniest moment was when balls started pouring down from above...Max was totally buried and finally you see his head come up asking "what the heck???"

And every time I tried to get him to come out (for cake and presents), Max would look at me and jump away! He had such a ball. (ha ha)

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.
