Sadbh slept well through the night and apart from the occasional adjustment, she did not wake until 4am.
She joined us in bed, had a quick breakfast and it was back to sleep after having her trach suctioned.
She slept through to 8am, and then it time to get up and have some solids for breakfast.
Sadbh is 11 months old today, and it’s hard to imagine that she is only a month away from her first birthday.
Katie had a hair appointment, so she left Sadbh with us and headed off.
We had a great time playing with Sadbh, and she was in her element leading poor Granddad around the house.
Eventually, when she started to get tired, Granddad and I started her trach care procedure.
Everything went well for the most part, but it was quite difficult to get her trach ties secured as the ties kept rolling back on itself. I ended up having to remove the ties a few times and resetting them before they were finally secure.
We whisked Sadbh up to her cot as soon as we were done, and the moment I placed her in bed, she woke up.
I had a bunch of things to do during the afternoon, so we fed Sadbh and after she was done, we bundled her up, loaded up the car and the three of us headed to Costco.
Going to Costco on a Saturday is probably not the greatest of ideas, can you imagine how ridiculous of an idea it is when it’s raining hard.
Costco was packed, and since it was Sadbh’s first time there, she was so excited with the shear volume of people. It was crazy.
Typical Sadbh, we can’t go anywhere without bumping into someone who knows her. We met one of the nurses from Children’s.
After Costco, we headed off to the hardware store, and this time Sadbh stayed in the car with Granddad. It was a good thing since she was finally getting tired and needed to nap.
After another couple of stops, we were home bound and since things took longer than anticipated, it was a mad dash to make dinner as we were expecting company for the evening.
Our friends, Curtis, Christina and their lovely daughter Grace were stopping by for the evening.
Grace was fantastic with Sadbh and very gentle. The last time they met was back in September, and Grace remembered everything about Sadbh.
We had a lovely evening and the two girls had so much fun.
At one point, Grace wanted Sadbh to follow her into the living room, so she took her by the hand. Since I had her other hand, Sadbh ended up walking sideways through the house. Despite being the first time she attempted to walk sideways, she honestly did a good job.
Sadbh really enjoyed hanging out with Grace.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
