THE TAYLOR’S VISIT

The Taylor gang visited yesterday! Cousin Kenji is four months old now and very different from the last time I saw him.

Thank you, Aunt Lisa and Uncle Ryan, for making the long trek with a baby (Mommy and Daddy tell me it’s not easy!) and for the super cozy blanket.

And thank you, Nana and Papa, for coming and taking care of Chubs during my surgery and making lots and lots of food for all of us!

G-TUBE SURGERY

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!

PRE-OP DAY

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!

MATCHING SHIRTS

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.
