Sometime aug/sept
I did put your 1st cinema tickets up somewhere but do ya think i can find dem, after hrs of searching through d rubbish i hold on ta, i give up an give an educated guess...
So we went to mullingar and brought you, abigail & scott to see Ice Age 3 Dawn of the Dinosoars. It was great to have kids as an excuse to go to cartoon ;-) My other motive was to let yer dad see what it'd be like to go to the movies with 3 kids, ie. can we try again soon 4 another!!! Well Scott was 6, abigail 3 and you were couple of mths so i was given him thought for maybe 5yr old 2yr old & new baby! Not asking for much now and it kinda worked into yer dads mind okish. I would like a little babes growing up alongside you as company when ab's goes off to school in Sept '10, a bab's dat'll cheer ya up on yer sick days xox
Anywho back to the movie, it was great yez all loved it and as loud as it was der wasn't a peep outta ya as ya sat in yer baby sling all comfie n snug. Was looking forward to bringing along to our next movie xox

Shhhhhh - Your 1st taste of spoonfeed ;-)
29th Sept '09
This evening i said i'd make up a couple of spoonfils of pure baby rice and see how you'd take to it... Well it was like a duck to water, you loved it couldn't suck it in quick enough. I only gave you a couple of spoonfils to allow you get used to the texture, i know yer not at the 4mths mark yet but hey some ppl i know started much earlier than me! Your dad an i did a video to capture the moment, it was class! Was so looking forward to the next few wk's, tring you on different foods and cooking/blending baby food again, exciting times ahead ;-)

Photo Shoot 4 Model Baby ;-)
24th Sept '09
Today we had a photo shoot arranged with potrait.ie in Celbridge, Co. Kildare. Was rushing around all morning trying to get things ready, then got me hair coloured and it didn't turn out as i expected so wasn't in the best of form, thought me hair made me look like a boy, your dad didn't confirm otherwise!
Anywho, you and abigail were great at the shoot, you were quite as a mouse, abigail was rooting through all of yer ones stuff, wonder where she gets her nosiness from??? Anywho we can't really afford to get pics done now but we told the photograper that we will come next week to pick some out and we will purchase them after xmas. Main thing is we got them done while you were small and babylike with all the layers of fat :-) just like when we got them done for abigail, me and you dad were delighted with the shoot despite my bad hair day!

Doc visit :-(
21st Sept '09
Had to bring you to Dr E 2day, he said you have a chest infection so he prescribed ventolin. Rang Kathleen in crmlin to check that is was safe to give you this. She said it was ok, alot of heart babies get this when they've chest infections but only give when required.
Gave it too you for few days but stopped it as you were getting the shakes with it and this freaked me out, confirmed with crumlin to stop it, i'll have to bring you back if you still appear, sometimes heart babies seem chesty but it's just the vsd/asd (holes) that makes you breathe in a certain way.

1st Private App
14th Sept '09
Today was you 1st private appointment with Dr McMahon, nothing fancy bout the private clinic but we were in and out in no time. Dr Mc was pleased with your progress, heartwise nothing seemed to change, size wise he was delighted to see you were growing and growing so fast. He told us not to delay on the spoonfeeds when you come of age! might squeeze in a little b4 4mth stage ;-)
Cardio Catherisation (angeogram) will be booked for 5-6wk's time, then they will meet so they can put in a poa for your surgery...

Off to the hospital we go again!!!
9th-12th Sept
Had to bring you to A&E 2day b'coz i just wasn't happy with you, i knew something was amiss. Your temp would go once i gave you the calpol but after 4-6hrs it would be right back up again, it couldn't be just the immunisations. True to my word, mothers instincts was right, you had a kidney infection.
You were admited to paeds ward in private room and they took 3 urine samples to send them off to be analysed. Cultures report came back to say you were sensitive to the antibotix prolaxis you were on (the antibotic you were on was not suitable to protect your kidney from infections). So they changed you onto trimeoprim/monotrim.
I asked Dr Bates should you have a kidney scan seen as you only had a stent put in last week. He said "Yeah ok, i suppose so", jesus he vexed me, the minute we got you home i was changing you over to Dr Sharif, she's such a better dr in my eyes anyway. Anywho you had yer scan, the sonograper nearly gave me heart failure when she suggested to me that the stent was not visible and it looked to have moved and the kidney was enlarged a little.
Back in the room i cried my eyes out thinking bout the thoughts of you havin to go through this procedure again, this was so unfair, you were only 2mths old. I was so mad. Dr Bates came after a few hrs and was so rude to me & your dad, he said yes the stent was moved slightly but it was still doing the job and the kidney was supposed to be enlarged. Oh i was fit to thump him, no compassion or understanding at how worried we were, asshole! He was just about to be fired from your care that was for sure!
Me & your dad took it in turns to stay over so we could each get time with your big sis abigail. Was feeling so bad we were being away from her so much, mind you she didn't seem to care, she was getting loads of sleepovers and spoilt rotton ;-)
