Sadbh’s update – November 3rd 2012


Sadbh woke up just a few minutes after Mommy got into bed and she was ready to snuggle.  She joined Mommy in bed and they slept great until just after 5am.  At that time, Sadbh was awake and ready to play. 

Mommy wasn’t quite ready, though, so after a suction, a nappy change and an hour of playtime in bed, Sadbh finally fell back asleep.

Just after breakfast, Sadbh enjoyed spending some time sitting on Poppy’s lap looking at his 70th birthday photo book.  It was very special how she seemed to recognize people in the pictures and she loved hearing Poppy tell her who they all are.

The morning was spent playing inside since the weather was quite miserable.  Daddy called from Portland and Sadbh was over the moon to see him in the computer.  She kept telling him that she loved him.

After trach care and only a short nap, Sadbh was awake, but was unfortunately not too happy about it. 

The afternoon plan was to go to the Pike Place Market, but instead, we spent the afternoon delivering Poppy’s rental car. 

Afterwards, Poppy, Nana, Grandad, Katie and Sadbh enjoyed a lovely walk on the Alki waterfront.  Sadbh was delighted to see the water and couldn’t stop waving at everything she saw – the ferryboats, the birds, the waves, etc...  Then we saw the seal pup on the beach and, although Sadbh wanted to get closer, we stayed our distance so as not to scare the pup.

Sadbh had a good feed once she was home and then it was off to sleep.  Since her trach ties had been irritating her for much of the afternoon, Katie and Gerry tested and adjusted them just before she went up to bed.

Sadbh missed her Daddy all day and kept calling his name.  She will be so excited when he returns home tomorrow.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
