I showed Nana my Hello Kitty airplane and regaled her with tales of my trips to Russia and France that I made “a long, long time ago.”

I am now the proud owner of a g-tube. We checked in at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital at 6am on Thursday morning. By 9am, I was a tubie.
When I got to my hospital room, I practiced feeding my g-tube baby.

Daddy practiced feeding the g-tube baby, too.

That day and night, I tried to walk around, but it was not so fun. So I hung out on my bed and played with cars and planes.

The next day, I was afraid of walking around. So the nice ladies at the hospital lured me out with the promise of Legos and airplanes. After that, I just wanted to wander around and play in the playroom.



After I was discharged, we rode the tram!

I am having my g-tube placed this morning. So I spent yesterday doing important things, like washing my syringes and looking really cool in sunglasses. Also, during my session with my occupational therapist, I drew my very first person!





Nana and Papa just arrived to take care of Chubs while I’m in the hospital and to help take care of me when I get home. And Papa and I were wearing almost the same shirt! We were even wearing the same pants until I took mine off.




I had another play date with Eliwen yesterday. She wanted to wish me well for my surgery on Thursday and give me the Valentine’s cards everyone gave me at school. We had lunch at a cafe and then played at the library for five hours!
Oh, and I was willing to wear headphones for the first time!







We took Chubs to the vet and it was such a nice day, we decided to walk home. I found sticks and made teeny tiny nests for teeny tiny birds.

Mommy and I are in the waiting room of my pediatrician’s office and another Mommy and her baby are waiting across from us.
Me: I was cuter than that baby.
We had a teeny tiny bit of snow yesterday, so while making my nightly lookout for Orion’s belt, I made footprints!


I am in our living room looking out the window, pretending to be at the airport watching airplanes take off and land.
Mommy: What airlines do you see?
Me: I see JetBlue taking off! And Delta landing! And the Hindenburg crashing!
