We are settling in to our new family life, although it's not quite what it will normally be. We are able to avoid the rushing around in the mornings and in the evenings. Spending all day together every day is not the norm for us either.
Sawyer is sleeping well and in his own bed. I do lay down on the trundle bed that is pulled out more than half way in case he were to roll out of bed during the night. Once he is asleep and if I haven't fallen asleep, I will leave his room. He has woken up a few times during the night and goes back to sleep with a little pat or hand holding.
Yesterday, I took Sawyer to his first pediatric appointment. He was checked over pretty well and Dr. Rice said that he looks like he was well cared for, thank you
Swallows Nest! We will see the pediatric cardiologist next Wednesday. He needs to see an ophthalmologist and be evaluated by PT and OT to see where he is and what we need to work on. He will need to have blood work done in the next couple of weeks (I am not looking forward to that).
Sophie is loving taking care of him. We have to remind her that we are the parents and we do not need to be told how to do things for him. She thinks she knows what he likes and wants, which she uses to aggravate him sometimes.
We left and returned home a couple of times yesterday and Sawyer would go get in the Barbie Jeep. He sits in the passenger side and waits for his driver. He has enjoyed his sister driving him around and waves at us frequently as he passes us by.
Rick laughed this morning talking about Sawyer waving at us so much. He said Sawyer wouldn't fit in in Hong Kong. Felicia use to make fun of me because I would wave at people a lot. She said they never waved at anyone in Hong Kong. So I guess he gets this from me ;).
