Year 2 – Week 31 – Day 6

I have gotten so used to doing monstrous posts that I don’t know what to do with this one! I only took a couple of fast photos, we were extra super busy today.
The good news is that we now have two new nurses that are set to take over so we won’t lose out on our hours. We will have two nights every week that are not covered and that will be a challenge, but we will have four days of help now and that will be a huge relief to me. Especially since the therapists are cut and changed, the extra day nursing can help me keep working on Brendan’s goals.

We got a delivery today with some flowers and balloons from Aunt Letty and Uncle Rich. I am sure you meant to send the balloons to Trevor, at least he assumed so!

He is on the run

We played outside this morning, and Brendan got worn out! He almost fell asleep in the swing. When we came in, he actually took an early morning nap. He took another this afternoon and slept until 4pm! So much for bedtime tonight!! I had to take Trevor out for a drive so that Brendan could rest.

Brendan gets three hours a day off of his feeding pump now, so he can do more exploring. He got all wound up under the kitchen table tonight, but he had fun.

We are getting ready to put Trevor to bed and then we have big plans tonight! Our night nurse is coming in super early for Brendan and our friend Christine is coming to be available if Trevor wakes up. Bill and I have 8PM dinner reservations! This will be the first real date night we have had in two years!

Last year on my birthday, Gramma was here scouring and scrubbing every inch of the house with us so that we could bring Brendan home. Everything is so different now!
