It was a pretty nice morning. Trevor decided we needed to make pancakes. We made blueberry pancakes and Trevor helped stir it all up.
Brendan passed on pancakes and opted for donuts instead
We tried the walk again, this time in the afternoon when Brendan was in a great mood. It was the same thing. He wanted no part of the stroller. We got him calmed down once and then Trevor yelled and started the crying all over again. We tried all we could to make him comfortable and then had to give up. Bill stayed with Brendan and I took Trevor on the 3/4 mile loop around the block. When we got home, Bill and I traded babies and he and Trevor went for another loop while I did Brendan’s bath and trach change.
I think Trevor was wondering why there was no third loop around! We actually got rained on a little, who would have thought?
Brendan loved his bath and freaked out for his trach change. But then he got dressed in his outfit that makes him look like a cupcake with rainbow sprinkle frosting. Who could be sad in that?
Trevor has the TV remote
We don’t follow football at all, I didn’t even know who was playing until yesterday. Our neighbor around the corner went nuts and recreated the superbowl field in his front yard, including PVC goalposts and detailed, elaborate team endzones painted on the grass, the center emblem, etc. When we walked by today, they had a ton of people in full “costume” with face paint and everything.
We decided to watch the game but haven’t given it a lot of attention. The power outage was cool. We decided to root for the Ravens because ravens say “CAWWWW!!!” and that made Brendan smile. I don’t know what sound a 49’er makes. It is 31-29 now, so it is anyone’s game. Quite a comeback. Still, we are pulling for the “CAWWWW!!!” Ravens.
I love the first picture of “Trevor-chin”! Yummm, blueberry pancakes.
Brendan’s donuts look a little crunchy! Too bad he didn’t like his walk outside. Maybe in time he will decide that he does. I love him in his tie dyed onesie!
We’re going to get 5″ of snow overnight and more tomorrow! Your 70 degrees sounds really good!
Lots of love,
Gramma
Blueberry pancakes! Kayla will be “right” over! Oh wait. You already ate them by now. Darn. Better perfect that recipe for when we visit later this year! I am glad that Trevor is getting fresh air! Brendan will too – he just needs to be all adjusted to everything before he wants to be outside!
Good evening from the east coast!! You know, Brendan and Trevor, your Aunt Heather has an awesome pancake recipe that will rival your blueberry ones!! Kayla and Ashley shared it with us when they came to visit…you will love those pancakes!! I agree with Gramma, Brendan, those donuts do look a bit crunchy. But I bet they are yummy!! Trevor, you are growing up soooo fast. Seeing you standing and walking is so cool! Keep up the good work!! Here’s hoping that soon, Brendan will be enjoying the outdoors as much as Trevor!! Perhaps the daylight is a bit much for his sensitivity and that will soon diminish. Sure hope so. Still sending prayers, hugs and lots of love. 🙂
