Adventures with Baby J and Bean. And our perfectly imperfect life. What is Williams Syndrome? Wednesday, November 2, 2011. Hanging with Baby J. I've been making an extra effort lately to spend as much one-on-one time with Baby J as possible.

Today is a preschool day&#...

Adventures with Baby J and Bean. And our perfectly imperfect life. What is Williams Syndrome? Tuesday, September 6, 2011. Tomorrow is the day. Bean's dental surgery is tomorrow morning. I wrote about it before here. We have to be at the hospital at 7:45. I'm glad it's relatively early so that he won't be too hungry and grouchy.

This is my way of sharing my knowledge so other parents can have that same power. From the American Academy of pediatrics. Trouble growing in adolescence. The onset of puberty is controlled by the pituitary ...
