Sadbh’s update – November 20th 2013


Sadbh had a good night and woke up shortly after 7, very happy to see Mommy.

It was a sunny but very cold morning so after breakfast we bundled Sadbh up nice and warm and headed out to Nora’s Wood for a walk. At first Sadbh wanted did not want to go but after a slow start we motored on.
Along the way we spotted a lot of decomposing pumpkins and only one brave spider.

After a nice hike through the woods we headed home and got Sadbh ready for trach care.
Everything went well and as soon as we finished up Sadbh and Jenna baked cup cakes. Sadbh was happy to get messy with all the ingredients and the end result turned out very tasty indeed.

The excitement wore her out and Sadbh had a two-hour nap. She woke up in a great mood and was eager to taste one of her cup cakes. Unfortunately, at some point before going to bed Sadbh scratched up the fridge door so she had to go without a treat. I was impressed that she owned up to it but was very disappointed that she was not under tighter supervision while I was out of the house. She is two and a half after all and this is typical for a child her age.

Sadbh and I had a fun evening and got caught up on a bunch of her books. She kept bringing me German books to read and after a few failed attempts I exchanged them for English books. She does not need to hear me trying to speak German. That would scar her for life.

Bedtime came a little later than usual. She almost fell asleep with her trach cap on but woke up just as she was dozing off. It took a while longer but thankfully Sadbh was fast asleep before Crystal’s shift started.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
