Year 2 – Week 46 – Day 1

It was an insane day today. Bill left the house before 4am to catch his plane. Trevor woke up at 5am screaming and I could not get him to go back to bed. He would relax if I rocked him, but if I tried to set him down, he would sob and cry this very sad cry.
I finally gave up trying and fed him breakfast at 6:30am, he was up for the day and woke up Brendan too.
With a poor night of sleep, he was a CRAB!! Brendan had an important meeting today with his new (old!) OT and Trevor made it nearly impossible to have a conversation. I gave him lunch early and got him to bed for a nap by 11:00am. I wish he would have slept longer, but 2hrs was enough to reset him a bit and he had a much better afternoon/evening. He just hasn’t been acting like himself.

I got him through the morning with train play. He loves these buildings because they move and process little square bales of “hay”. He even says “Haaaaayy!”

This building has a pretend chute to load the dump truck with dirt, complete with cool sounds.

I thought that Trevor napped through his recycle truck today, but it ended up coming at 3:45PM!! Crazy schedule! At least we were outside in time to see it!

I am very grateful for my two nurses today that both extended their shifts so that I had coverage for almost the entire day and evening. It is a lot of work without Bill here doing his part! Getting through dinner was the only time I was alone with them, and they did fine in their high chairs.

Trevor wouldn’t eat his favorite ham tonight, makes me suspicious about him not feeling well. He did devour lots of fresh mashed potatoes.

Brendan’s fork with mashed potatoes made it to the ground in record time

Trevor says, “That’s ok Brendan, you don’t need a fork when you can eat by the fistful”

Brendan says, “Are you sure we are related?!”

“When you were taking a picture of Trevor, I ate a bite of potatoes THIS BIG”

The bad news to share is that my camera is broken. It won’t turn on every time and when it does, it might not stay on long. I replaced both the main battery and the little date/time battery and no go. Bill did as much as he could to test and check it out, but it looks like it needs to go to the shop! 🙁
I had to pull out my 7yr old camera to take most of the pictures today, I already miss the big one!

Bill just walked in from the airport, safe and sound at home already. What a whirlwind day for him, going to Dallas and back in one day. We are all glad to have him home!

One thought on “Year 2 – Week 46 – Day 1

  1. I hope Trevor was just overtired from getting up way too early and that he’s not coming down with something. Mashed potato face Trevor is very cute!
    I loved yesterday’s Brendan-in-a-cube! He is so cute with his “THIS BIG” look, too.
    I hope you will all get a good night’s sleep tonight and that everyone will be rested and fresh tomorrow. We’re getting company! Aunt Shannon and Kieran are coming for 2 days for Great-grandma’s 92nd birthday! It will be nice to see them. 🙂
    Lots of love and hugs,
