well, that backfired

We've been seeing the emergence of some... ummmmmmm... Interesting?  Naughty?  Cheeky?  Delayed...but possibly Typical?  behaviors from Trevy.   I'm talking...hitting...kicking...yanking...pulling (hair, glasses, clothing, both yours and his)...smacking...slapping...spitting...pinching... and let's not forget the biting.  The biting is the worst!  Cause it always happens as a sneak attack.  One minute you're all snuggled up and content.  Then you blink and it all goes to pot.  And you've got a little Frodo look-a-like vampire on your arm.  Or leg.  Or shoulder.   Not to worry.  We have discipline strategies in place to help promote non-vampire behaviors.  I'm sure they'll work sooner or later.  Much...much...later...  ::sigh::   However, this morning I couldn't implement any of our creative discipline techniques because one of my hands was occupied with trying not ...

Trevy's Wish Trip (day 1)

Our Wish Trip began in high style with limo transport from home to airport You'd look groggy too if you'd had a 3am wake up call to catch the morning red-eye A rare (sleepy) Toby smile South West treated us SO wonderful... and let the kiddos explore the cockpit... Trevy even got to play co-pilot!  Which actually made me quite nervous... cause once he got over feeling overwhelmed... he proceeded to switch and flip everything with gusto!  Yikes!  But we made it home in one piece so I guess it was okay... We then explored all the wonderful things Give Kids the World had to offer The little train was a family fave!  Notice Trevy's flushed face?  That's Topomax cheeks...a side effect is the inability to sweat which can cause a number of yucky things to happen.  Soooo...we had to make sure to take lots of AC breaks to keep the Star of the show cool.  Bristel practicing her princess pose One of our h...

back on the grid

You may have wondered why I've been a bit MIA for the past week or so? Of course you may not have too. ::smile:: But I'm going with the former! It makes me feel warm & fuzzy. And does wonders for any self esteem issues I have lingering from my middle school years. ::big smile:: Soooo...since you noticed. I thought I'd reward your kind-hearted curiosity with an irresistibly adorable picture marathon of exactly what Trevy and fam have been up to while we were off the grid for a week or so... Enjoy!   Trevy was granted a Wish trip to celebrate his 1 year post hemi (read: removal of almost HALF his brain) surgery anniversary!  Pictures like this are AWESOME!  Total black mail for future dates!  One of my faves! Catching Trevy in the act of smiling is tricky...so when we do it's always a fave.  Such a ham!  Can I get some honey with that ham?!  Awwww...Goofy kissed Trevy's boo-boo spot!  Po...
