Drowning…..
Kisses It’s time for a Dear Diary moment….. Well, it’s been a difficult few days. Sometimes I feel like I’m drowning. On Tuesday night, Adele’s breathing was laboured and she was pale. My mommy instinct kicked in and took our peanut to High River Emergency. Adele’s respiratory rate was between 80 and 90. That […]
Going Home and Remission…..
Where does the time go? First of all, I would like to thank all of those who are giving Mrs. DeWitt a helping hand. I really appreciate your generosity. When I get all the gifts and gift cards, I will deliver them to the school. Please include a little note. If you still […]
Her Flood Story
Our Beauties! Yesterday was our first day out all alone, just momma, Brinley and Adele. I’m still trying to find a good way to get both girls in the car without making numerous trips. Brinley, Adele, diaper bag, oxygen, purse….I may have to give a child away or hire a car nanny. 🙂 We went over […]
SUCTION, TUCK, LIFT! :)
Such a pretty baby 🙂 Well, Adele has been home for almost two weeks! It’s been great and so far smooth sailing. James went back to work today and I am not crying or drinking yet. Brinley is loving her sister to pieces today and needs to be watched a bit because there is a 20 […]
There WILL Be A Vasectomy!!!
The sprinkler…she’s so cool! Today, I took Adele to the pediatrician to get her all checked out! It’s so funny how with Brinley, I had a diaper bag all packed and stuffed to the brim and all ready to go months before she was born. Adele, she has a Ziploc baggie and I put it […]
Will Adele Have Friends?
BFFs Lately, when I go out and something comes up about Down syndrome, all I hear is that it’s a lot of work. It’s life long. It’s going to keep you busy. Make sure you get all of your funding. Always be your child’s strongest advocate. Your child will probably live with you forever. “You […]
BLESSINGS
A new friend sent me a message last night on Facebook. We connected while I was still pregnant with Adele. They found out late in the pregnancy that their precious little girl had a major brain bleed. Katelyn survived 8 days after having to go through surgeries and a lot of poking and prodding. I […]
POOPS AND PUKES!
Bedtime Stories 🙂 Our first night at home, as you know was long. Nights two and three have been much better. We usually are waking Adele up for her feedings but she also lets us know that she’s hungry. It was James’ feed early this morning. I heard the alarm go off, then I kind […]
HOME TIME AND YAWN!
Home Time! Yesterday, September 4th, 2013, after 42 days in the NICU, Adele came home. Well, sort of home. Back to grandma and grandpa’s cause we still don’t have a home ready for the four of us. Soon. 🙂 We were so excited yesterday. It was kind of like the feeling when you’re told […]
