Things have been rough here lately. My grandpa was in the hospital. He has cancer in his throat and has been undergoing radiation treatments for it. The radiation made 2nd degree burns inside his throat, so much so that he couldn't even swallow his own saliva.
The day that he got home from the hospital, my sister went in. I don't really want to talk about it or go into any detail, but her boyfriend (whom we suspected was no good) beat her something terrible. It's too painful for me to even talk about. Thankfully God was watching out for her and she's going to be alright after some surgeries, but no one should ever have to go through what she did. I can't even wrap my head around it. I hope that this guy rots in jail.
These things have been really tough to deal with considering I'm still all pp and weepy. I'm still dealing with the same issues of whether or not I'm a good enough mommy and what to do about breastfeeding, etc. I'm just taking it one day at a time. I guess that a week ago I wouldn't have thought that I could do it for another week and yet I have managed. So one day at a time.
I finally decided today that enough was enough - I needed to get out of the house. So we took our little bundle of joy with us to his very first trip to Target. He was so good - just slept the whole time. We even had strangers telling us how cute he was! Daven got some more pacis and one of those holders that you clip to his clothes. A got another lamp for the office, but that ended up a total fail since we forgot to get light bulbs for it and have absolutely none here at the house. Oops.
Here's Daven at Target. I know you can't tell from the pic, but he's in the cart riding along!
And here's our baby boy again, from this morning.
I think that we are going to try to go out to eat tonight with A's parents. Can't wait to take him out again!
