Little Dude has been through a lot in his short life; but hopefully that means he will be a resilient adult who is able to roll with things when life decides to punch him in the face. Here is a brief overview of what Little Dude has been through in the past year:
-A very dramatic entrance into this world followed by a 4 day stay in the NICU
-Coming home to a house with 3 puppies who love to bark whenever someone walks on the porch and scare the poor baby
-Daddy being deployed for almost 8 months
-A flight to Kentucky followed by a road trip to Indiana and Illinois with a flight back to Virginia from Kentucky to meet all of mommy and daddy's friends and family members
-Daycare
-Another flight to Kentucky
-A week hanging out in the lobby of a hospital with a constant rotation of people watching him so mommy could take care of grandma
-5 weeks at a different daycare in the middle of rural Kentucky while mommy continued helping grandma and tried to work from grandmas house
-5 more flights to/from Virginia/Kentucky while at Grandmas
-A 12+ hour one way roadtrip from Virginia to Kentucky then back again at the end of the stay at Grandmas with 3 dogs in the car
-Going back to his first daycare
-The start of a global pandemic and hanging out with mommy while she tries to work from home for approximently 2 months
-A third daycare, still during a global pandemic but with lots of extra cleaning and safety precautions
-Daddy coming home from daycare
But at least now we get to have cake!!!
And this sweet boy even gave me a gift for his birthday and slept through the night last night for the first time!!!!
