M is for Mmmmiserable Mmmmonday.
Trevor was up throughout the whole night. He was just so congested in his nose that he couldn’t breathe well. The running mucus kept tickling his face and making him upset. He woke up so many times, he might as well have been awake all night. Then at 5:30am, he was just up for the day.
Brendan had a decent night of sleep after a pretty rough evening and then he had a rough morning with LOTS of suctioning and coughing. I was so tired that I couldn’t even remember how to brush my teeth, and I was panicking about being alone with the two very clingy, needy, tired boys clobbering each other. I was very lucky that his night nurse was able to stay a bit late, and one of his day nurses came in on her day off to help out.
Trevor went down for a nap at 9:45am and slept until noon. I was so grateful for a short break to rest my head. He woke up just as Brendan was going down for his nap, so he got to have a “picnic” lunch in our big bed while he watched Curious George.

He helped me open a million game pieces for the grocery store’s monopoly game.

This afternoon, Brendan had his quarterly appointment with his GI doctor. He had a great checkup. He gets his barium study tomorrow and then the doctor will decide his next plan, but big changes may be coming.
Brendan was measured at 35″ tall today! He is trying to catch up to Trevor! (Trevor is probably almost 37″ now!)



I’m so sorry to hear you had such a bad night with Trevor and a bad Monday. I hope you’ll all be well soon.
It sounds like good news at the GI doctor. I will really wish hard for Brendan’s barium study to go well, and I can’t wait to hear about the big changes, as long as it’s very good news for Brendan.
I hope Trevor sleeps better tonight and you can get the rest you need. Good luck tomorrow and I’ll be waiting to hear good news.
Lots of love and hugs,
