Tomorrow will be 20 weeks since we lost Eden. Our hearts continue to be so heavy. Scott's grief is catching up with him, he was so strong for me for so long. Every day ends in tears in our house. We love Eden so much and miss her more than the world. We talk about her often and pray that God will keep her in the hearts of all she touched. We LOVE you Eden.
Reagan is growing like crazy- she is now 8.610 kg or 19 lbs!!! She is standing holding on to things and she wants to crawl so badly. She is a wiggle worm and never stops moving! Some days she even thinks she's too old for two naps. This makes 5-7pm very difficult, she wants to sleep but her bedtime is so close. We work on oral feeding everyday and it continues to be challenging. She is getting a teeny tiny bit better, consistency is key. She is breathing so well and we are continuing to wean some of her diuretics! Her smile brings us so much joy and we love her more than the world.
Hi Scott and Amanda,
ReplyDeleteI found that my grief hit again so hard around 4-5 months. I don't know why, but it did. I think it's because life goes back to "normal" for everyone else and you are still feeling the loss so strongly. Normal doesn't exist anymore. But hopefully you can take some comfort in knowing that I will never ever forget sweet Eden. She, and your family, will be in my heart forever.
Sending hugs to all of you. Thinking of Eden and Liam always.
Sending love,
Steph
Oh happy day...is that her first little pig-tail? So adoreable!

I bet she just LOVES all her new toys!! I wondered how you two were doing with the grief, I can't imagine what that process must be like. I think I would have probably been like Scott, it always catches up sooner or later! I bet the birthday was such a bitter sweet day, I am glad we were able to stop by and be a part of it. It was truly a highlight of my month to meet little Reagan!
