row that boat while you're in time out!

A cute little clip of Trevy showing off his new verbal skills! I keep reminding myself that 8 months ago...he had no speech. No reception. No expression. Nodda.


Such a miracle!


And trust me...he'll get your smile on!






Plus, a bonus vid!


Cause Trevy in Time Out is too cute not to share.


::smile::


This clip is actually fairly mild compared to his normal TO shananigans. But still cute. You'll see....

ADORable!!
Love the singing, the clapping and looking directly at the camera sent me over the edge, and the songbook??? I need one of those!
Time out....crack me up....goodness you must be exhausted if there's many of those a day. Our W's timeouts drive me bonkers bc he cannot sit still. Upside down, trying to do somersaults down the stairs, moving, moving, moving....ugh! One therapist told me as long as he is ON the stairs then who cares what he is doing there! That's a hard one for me.
Thanks for sharing the videos. Super cute.

I'm smitten with him too!

And Margo...I've actually thought that with Trevy. Maybe I should let him touch stuff...maybe it's a legitimate need? IDK. I do know if I don't sit there right in front of him the whole time...he WILL NOT stay! lol And it works. Right now...crossing fingers, toes and everything else crossable...we only have a few TimeOuts a day. Not too bad...

Sophie's Story by Elaine said…
We have MANY time outs in our house. So much that I put up two baby gates in a walkway so that she is trapped between the two. With three little ones, there was no time to make her stay in time out and the hitting, biting, pinching was getting to be too much.

He is so stinking cute though. And his voice...just melts my heart. LOVE IT!!!

Oh my goodness, I know that everyone thinks their own kids are cute, but you are right Trevy is seriously cute. I really like the time out video. It really seems like he is doing his best to distract you, and I don't know how you keep from laughing. He is just too cute.

Wow! I love his words! He definitely has the cute factor working in his favor during the time out. Seriously cute. :)

a different kind of muscle — guardianship process

  To all the parents who have walked through the guardianship process — my heart is with you. Our paperwork is prepped and ready to submit this week. He turns 18 on April 3rd. I've been thinking about this for a year now, but only just mustered the energy to move forward — the loom of his birthday my propellant. Overwhelm has paralyzing effect. I'm struggling to recall the last time I didn't feel overwhelmed. It struck me how all these years of walking through disability beside Trevor should have made me stronger and yet... I suppose it's a different kind of muscle being developed.

No, I don’t know him personally

  I’ve had several emails today asking if I know Mike W. of Marissa’s Bunny personally.    Trevy’s blog was linked on her site.  Although it’s not now.     I’ve posted here and there at his request.  Because…well…we’re a community.  Us IS families.  And Marissa is wicked cute.  Her daddy has a way with words.  Also who wouldn’t want the world to know about an iPad give-away?    But aside from that…I know about as much as you do.    We’ve never met in person.    Our only communication has been cyber.    I’m a ginormous sap and as such would love to believe that all is right.  That the sweet, beautiful families who were promised iPads will be getting them tonight.  Tomorrow at the latest.  That no one has been lied to.  That the personal thank you for your generosity email I sent him on behalf of other IS families I’ve grown to love and was thrilled to learn w...

the great answer hunt in the land of Infantile Spasms

If I've said it once... I've thought it a million times more. How it's like the more I research...and discover...about IS. The more blurry everything becomes. For every answer found. A dozen questions are unearthed. Remember our whole ARX saga ? Yeah...that threw me for a loop. So much so...that I never went on to post the end of the story. Thus far... See...the unbelievable in the world of genes happened. Because this is IS-ville after all. After Dr. Genes sampled Trevy's ARX gene on a whim...a whim which revealed an unkown (meaning the first time this specific change was found) mild mutation...she proceeded to send Toby's blood off to mad scientist central. With assurances that this was totally unnecessary . She was convinced that Trevor's ARX mutation was the underlying cause of his Infantile Spasms. And that Typical Toby...would prove to be just that. Typical...at least in all areas mutate-able. And yet...Toby's ARX blood sample revealed THE SAME MIL...
