Ice cream before bed turned out to be a bad idea. Sadbh was very
restless during the night and ended up waking up at 2am. Thankfully Julie was
able to keep her entertained until 3:30 when she finally started to get sleepy
again.
This time she slept great and did not wake until 8:45am.
She had a good appetite and was ready for her breakfast.
It was a cold but sunny day and after the fog cleared Sadbh,
Nana and Granddad all headed out to play in the garden.
Sadbh was delighted and very happy to be outside. They even went
for a quick walk around the neighborhood and Sadbh got to burn up some energy.
Ali-Baba stopped by to help with trach care around lunch time
since Sadbh did not have a nurse working today. Sadbh did not take her nap
until 3am, so Ali-Baba got a few extra hours of playtime in.
Trach care went well and Sadbh slept for almost two hours
afterwards.
Just as she was finishing up dinner, she received a visit from
our friend Mary who was visiting from NYC.
Sadbh was a little shy at first, but soon warmed up.
She was very excited to see the near full moon shining in the
cloudless sky and took turns showing us all. At one stage I found a nice
viewpoint from the upstairs landing and both Sadbh and I hung out waving and
blowing kisses to the moon. Sadbh was so happy.
We had a great evening and when it came time for Sadbh to go to
bed she was very ready. It did take a while to get her to sleep, but since she
did not have ice cream and chocolate cake this evening, we feel good that she
will get a much better night sleep.
Just before dozing off to sleep, Sadbh asked Katie about Nini. Katie told Sadbh that Nini loved her
and asked Sadbh if she wanted to see Nini in the computer soon. Sadbh said “yep” and went to sleep.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
