Sadbh slept great through the
night, thanks to Larissa. She woke
up at 6:15, just in time to say goodbye to Daddy who was heading off to L.A.
for a business trip.
She was ready to start her day
with a big breakfast that included scrambled eggs with cheese and banana.
After that, she had some
playtime with Nini. Audrey worked
today and Sadbh was very happy to see her. Sadbh, Nini and Audrey had lots of fun together running
through the house, collecting all of Sadbh’s toys and bringing them to her big
chair.
She would then sit in it very
proudly surrounded by her favorite toys.
It was as if she was the big boss, with her work (books and toys) and
co-workers (dolls and stuffed animals) surrounding her.
Soon she got very tired and
Nini and Audrey prepared everything for trach care. It went well and Sadbh slept afterwards for just short of an
hour.
When she woke up she was still
very tired, but after a big lunch she was happy again. Suddenly the door opened and Katie was
standing there. Sadbh was over the
moon over this surprise. Katie and
her friend Joni had stopped by for lunch.
Sadbh was very excited and couldn’t stop smiling while eating lots of
watermelon. Sadbh was a bit shy of
Joni at first, but by the end of the short visit, she couldn’t resist giving
her a little kiss goodbye.
It was very hot today (up in
the 90’s!), but Audrey, Nini and Sadbh still went for a walk and visited a
playground. Sadbh was very happy
and couldn’t stop running around exploring everything. She wore the Passy Muir for 30 minutes,
but got very dry because of the heat so Nini took it off.
As soon as they were back home,
Sadbh was exhausted and fell asleep.
After a brief nap, she was in a much better mood and was ready for more
playtime with Nini.
Nini noticed that around 4:30
(the time when Daddy usually comes home), with every car that went by, Sadbh
would make the sign for Daddy and look out the window. It is amazing how in tune she is with
the time of the day and the routine.
After a quick snack, they
headed down in the basement where it was nice and cool and read some of Sadbh’s
favorite books. Later in the
evening, Sadbh, Nini and Katie ate dinner outside and Sadbh got to eat some
corn on the cob.
Sadbh’s friend Grace gave her a
beautiful drawing today of an underwater picture. Sadbh loved it and carried it around all evening. Grace wrote on it “I love Sadbh”. It is very special and Sadbh cant wait
for her next play date with Grace.
It was a very beautiful day and
by the end of it, Sadbh was so tired that she fell straight asleep. Daddy will be home later tonight and
Sadbh will be so excited to play with him tomorrow.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
