Tonight is the first night Im alone with the baby. Im technically not 'officially' allowed to pickup Elliot still. However, I figure as long as Im not doing it often, and not in pain we can manage. So tonight was the first night we tested me being able to put him to bed tonight. Of course it would have to be the night we have a Tornado Warning!
So I put Elliot to bed without incident. He was cranky, and didnt eat much dinner. Sleepy boy was ready for bed. I put him to bed, and he was asleep quickly. My joy was short lived. Next thing I know we are under a tornado warning, and told to take cover. So now I go back and get Elliot back out of bed, and into the bathroom. This is where we huncker down for cover. Just me, Elliot, and the dog. Elliot loved the party in the tub. Played with is bath toys (without water of course) and the dog while we listened to the weather on my laptop. As soon as the threat was over I put him back to bed. Shockingly he fell right back asleep like nothing occured.
As for now? I sit here keeping an eye on the weather. I think we are in the clear for now. Im still in moderate pain. Mainly it feels like I have a pinched nerve in my hand and arm thats killing me. Its bad enough to keep me from getting sleep. I have a doctors appointment tomorrow morning with my oncologist. Im looking forward to what he says. Should be interesting. Hopefully nothing but good news since surgery. All I can hope for is that he hasnt changed his mind on course of treatment. Which for now is just watch and wait.
As for me? Im going back to watching the wather. Good night.
