Liam's Middle of the Night Request

When Liam is fighting sleep, he repeats "I'm not tired, I'm not tired", he was doing this around 1:00am this morning. We know this means he is tired.

Troy stayed at the hospital last night, at about 1:00am Liam said "Dad, I'm not tired. I want chocolate milk, stickers and a brother". What an order!

p.s. Liam doesn't like chocolate milk
p.p.s. Liam is not getting a brother!

Friday before long weekend

Liam's red blood cell count was low, so he got a transfusion this morning. It was an efficient morning, so we were out of the hospital by 1:00. While laying in the hospital bed, Liam was tired and cried out "Mom, my eyes are trying to close!", thankfully he gave in and had a nap.

It was a quiet week from a hospital perspective, we had 2 clinic visits, then the transfusion. Liam had a touch of fever last night and this morning, but they monitored him at the clinic and he didn't have fever while we were there. We will see if we can make it this whole weekend without going to the hospital (with a fever, it's minimum of 48 hours in the hospital), it wouldn't be too surprising if we did have to go.

The kids at the clinic received cute teddy bears with Canada Flag balloons for Canada Day. If we would have been in the clinic for the afternoon, they had entertainment and some of the Stampeders football players were going to meet the kids! That just wasn't enough to keep me there for the afternoon :-)

The big cut

The boys did amazing! Troy got his hair buzzed first, hoping that Liam would want to follow. Liam resisted at first, but in no time he was sitting patiently. Unfortunately, the clippers stopped charging, so we didn't actually get to finish Liam's hair! The boys seriously look so cute.

Liam finished the night rubbing his head and said "I don't need my hair". He amazes us.

Last night I was cutting off Liam's hospital id band... he said "Don't worry, I'll get another one the next time I go to the hospital". Yup, unfortunately he is right about going back. Although, I'm not sure who he thought was worried about taking off the bands!
