Finding Nemo & George Lopez

Bet you're wondering what they got in common, Huh? Well let's just say my babygirl likes watching them both. Well one more so for the song that comes out in the beginning...that being George Lopez...she absolutely loves the lowrider song...it is so funny!! As soon as it starts playing she starts kicking her feet and making silly noises letting us know that she just loves it!!It it so hilarious to watch...she already has a knack for music....as for Nemo....The other day Neesee was sitting up on her benches for a whole hour without falling while watching Nemo!!! That is sooo huge for us because Neesee hates to sit unassisted...well I should say more like can't sit unassisted due to her weak muscle tone. Guess that is unless she has some motivation or something to keep her preoccupied! What a booger! So here Neesee was sitting on her benches UNASSISTED and then came my other surprise...for those of you have watched Nemo a hundred times like me and Neesee remember the part where the mask falls down the trench and then Dory and Marlin see a lil light....well on that part I was watching Neesee follow the light back n forth and up and down...and then...the MONSTER!!! AGGHHH...the big fish then starts chasing Marlin all around while Dory is trying to read what the mask says...and Neesee is cracking up...making all these lil noises like shes rootin for Marlin!! Oh my goodness my daughter is soooo smart! She knew exactly what was going on and was responding accordingly...And for a mother of a child with Cri-du-chat...well that was certainly a blessing...my daughter never fails to amaze me..I know she is in there but it's little things like this that make it all a lil more Amazing......

Neesee's first Vacation: Disneyland!!!

What a trooper!! That's really all I can say about our recent trip. Never in a million years would I have expected Neesee to do so well with a long car drive or with so much stimulation. This would have never and I mean NEVER have even thought of being possible 6 months ago. I am so glad! We all got to get away from the hectic life style and enjoy ourselves. Neesee really liked Disneyland but what child doesn't? Front of the line and no waiting really...all thanks to Neesee! Guess that's a perk of a child with a disability...it took some of the pain of lugging around her oxygen tanks. Thank you Disney! Neesee not only handled the 7 hour drive to the disney park but also...the drive to my uncles, which Joel and I completely underestimated. Geez...We were even able to visit our friends. So Neesee got to meet so many new people and family she had not met yet and enjoyed the rides at Disneyland...all in one trip! Way to go Neesee...I think she handled the trip better than us...I was soooooo pooped! Some of the rides that all of us enjoyed were the snow white ride, the finding nemo ride, the pinnocchio ride, the haunted mansion, and even pirates of the carribbean!! Neesee was sooo cute on them all! We had so much fun! There's no hiding from the world for us no more! Look out world! Here we come disability and all! Oh yeah and the greatest part...no one asked "what's wrong with her" just "she's cute" and "aw..look at the baby!" My kinda vacation!
