Sweet Summer Days-5


 
 Once again we found ourselves at home, just in time for the sunshine; summer was in full force! We spent endless hours in the sun, visiting the neighbours, having friends and family over for visits, going to the parks, and the beach. We even went for a follow-up appointment to see our vascular surgeon and he removed the dressings from Jeremy's surgical site under his arm and was very impressed with what he saw. No redness, no swelling, the wound was healing nicely. All that remained were steri-strips that were used to hold the suture together and these would come off with a bath. Brent and I were so thankful and truly felt that this surgeon had saved our son's life. We fervently thanked him and gave him a bottle of wine, believing again that this was something that we were putting behind us.
     We watched our little boy grow as he hit all the developmental stages. He was starting to grab things, especially the toys on his play mat and any toy that Chloe would let him have. Jeremy just adored his big sister and she thought he was pretty cool too. He was beginning to coo and just craved attention.  He was such a content baby, always smiling and very rarely cried. Our boy seemed so healthy and perfect.

Actually getting a little chunky :D !


The great outdoors made me sleepy!


Grabbing my toys on my play mat






Chloe innocently sharing her raspberries with me. "What do you mean he can't have them yet?"

 

I patiently thanked her and tried to explain that I'm too little, helps if you can talk. Eyebrow raising only gets you so far.


I think that Chloe is the bees knees!!!!
