Sadbh slept a lot better than expected last night and only needed to be suctioned a couple of times.
She was in a great mood when she woke up this morning. When Katie heard her moving around in her pack-n-play and looked down on her, Sadbh was sticking her tongue out at her and giggling. It was a great way to start the day and Sadbh was eager to get downstairs for breakfast and for the fun to begin.
For breakfast, my mother made Boxty, which is a traditional Irish potato pancake. Sadbh got a little taste and immediately wanted more.
After we were done with breakfast, Sadbh got to open a present that she received from Clodagh and Cormac last week. She couldn’t contain her excitement while Granddad helped unwrap her gift. It was a tea set and she was so pleased with herself.
Our house has been full since Sadbh was born, so I installed another toilet today. This should hopefully alleviate the need for people to rush so the next person can use the bathroom.
Katie’s Uncle David and Aunt Jeanne were in town from Portland and stopped by for a visit.
Sadbh is certainly not a shy kid and was quick to play and even climb into Jeanne’s arms.
It was a fun evening and it was great to catch up. Sadbh showed off her walking and even showed off her two Jack-in-the-Box toys.
Just before bedtime, Sadbh was with Katie and Nini in the kitchen and all of a sudden she pulled her trach nose off and it went flying into sink.
With that, it was time to get Sadbh changed into her pajamas.
Unfortunately, Sadbh had another coughing fit, however, this time, she used one of the gauzes and started to wipe her trach. It was as if she was wiping her nose after a sneeze.
She worked both Katie and myself hard when it came time for bed. She would not lie down, and was bouncing around her cot like crazy. We figured that she would eventually wear herself out, but it was not the case. She wore both of us out.
After an hour or so of fighting sleep, she finally dozed off into a deep sleep.
Take care,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
