00:00Come get your blankie.
00:02I said boom chicka boom.
00:04Boom chicka boom.
00:06I said boom chicka boom.
00:08Boom chicka boom.
00:10I said boom chicka boom.
00:12The day that I recorded the video of Whitley
00:14singing boom chicka boom,
00:16he had been singing it all morning.
00:18He had sang it probably like five times in a row.
00:20So, uh,
00:22when we were in the kitchen and I asked him to pick up his
00:24blankie, I had a feeling that he might do it.
00:26And he did. And then at the
00:28end he added the no more times
00:30himself. No more
00:32times. No more times. You're right.
00:34So that was really funny. He just
00:36catches on to things so fast.
00:38Whitley was in the NICU
00:40for 16 days.
00:42While I was pregnant with him,
00:44uh, he
00:46was having short
00:48long bone measurements.
00:50So they induced me at 37
00:52weeks cause they just
00:54weren't sure what was going on with Whit.
00:56We did a lot of testing. My husband
00:58and I did testing as well.
01:00And we found out that he has a rare
01:02form of skeletal dysplasia.
01:04They just discovered it in 2018
01:06and they said Whitley's probably the 13th
01:08one diagnosed with it. But they also
01:10said there's quite a few people that don't know
01:12their diagnosis because
01:14there's so many variants of skeletal
01:16dysplasia that some of them just don't know.
01:18So there could be a lot more people out there with the
01:20same diagnosis as Whitley, but
01:22they just haven't figured it out
01:24yet. And yeah,
01:26this is going viral. I
01:28knew it was a cute video, like
01:30and he's my baby and
01:32I think he's just the best. So
01:34I thought it was cute and I just thought I'd post it.
01:36I really didn't think it would
01:38blow up the way it did, but
01:40it's been awesome and everybody
01:42has been so gracious and all of the comments
01:44have been so sweet and
01:46I'm so happy that the world
01:48is getting to see how amazing
01:50Whitley is.
01:54Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle.
