A VERY proud moment

May 20

See that picture in the center? I'm the one on the far left. This was a very proud day for me. It was the unveiling of the 2010 Breastfeeding Photo Contest. Myself and the two other women, along with our children, were invited as special guests, having been past winners. We got to meet our MP and everything! It was quite a day.

I'm sooooooooooo cute!

There's no words. This is pure joy.

Eternal Gratitude

May 8

This is the doctor who did Jacob's surgery. His eye looked better less than 24 hours after this surgery than his right eye did, a week after the last surgery. Our experience with this doctor has been night-and-day different than with the last one. Our family is very grateful for that.

This is the day we came home.

He's all right.

"Hi Momma! I had surgery yesterday, and I'm still hurting a lot, but I'm OK!"

Surgery

May 6

It's surgery day! Here's Jacob playing in the Surgical Daycare playroom. He had fun, even though he had to get 16b drops over the span of one hour.

Just cause I like this picture.

In recovery **cry**
I don't think this part of surgery gets any easier, to be honest. At this point, Jacob could barely rouse himself, and it was very frustrating for him. I remember the "hospital smell" that he had, it's one of the smells I dislike the most. My biggest plan was to get him back to the Easter Seal House, and sponge off as much of the smell as I could.

On the Ferry, the day before Jacob's Surgery.

May 5

Having dinner on the ferry, the day before Jacob's surgery. He loves the chicken strips they serve. Here he was having a big conversation with Daddy, which at this point mostly consisted of "bah-boo, mamoo, dahdoo, ba ba ba ba ba BA BA, bayboo, mamamamamamamama!"

Jacob and Amelia

May 3

Jacob and his cousin Amelia. She is one year and ten months older than him, and one pound lighter. It's as I said, Jacob's a tank. Milly just loves him, she has since the day he was born. She's always tried to help me with him, and treats him like he's her little brother.

Alfred Hitchcock and baby book

Yup, I'm a HUGE fan of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents." They just don't make television shows like this anymore.

This is Jacob's FAVORITE book. I've had to "repair" it three times already, haha!
