What's Happenin'

Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well. We are all enjoying the spring weather, complete with rain showers. I like saying 'it's raining' as I stare out my living room window/TV.

This photo is the result of Mommy being too slow in grabbing the camera. I was sitting in my rocking chair with my paci reading my night night book out loud. Mommy thought it was pretty funny. I knew it would be documented on the blog so I quickly stopped when she found the camera. I'm still a bit camera shy.

My pump is okay (Mommy and Daddy LOVE it). I still hate the infusion set changes but Mommy and Daddy say I'm getting a little better each time. They don't have to hold me down as much with the procedure, but it still takes two people to get it done. My blood sugars have been lower than I'm used to so I'm really hungry and get cranky readily. But, I'm told, my body will adjust to the lower blood sugars and I will feel great in a couple of weeks. I still don't like anyone messing with my pump but am getting better with putting my 'tool belt' on and getting hooked up again after a bath.


On Sunday my cousin Julia celebrated her First Communion. She did a great job and looked very pretty in her dress. Mommy enjoyed reminiscing about her First Communion experience and how it was a very militant event...apparently lots has changed since the olden days.

On a diabetic note, Mommy and Daddy had a bit of a scare during mass. They checked my blood sugar and it was about 500 (two hours after eating). They had just changed the infusion set and were afraid it wasn't properly placed. Mommy had an epiphany and remembered they forgot to fill the cannula with insulin, which promptly explained my high numbers. Thankfully they had the remote on the pump and were able to give my my insulin in church and the crisis was averted. This pump really is a handy thing!

Daddy is going to be mad at Mommy for posting this picture. Apparently he and Miss Kitty are cuddling buddies. Who knew? Daddy's turning into a cat person!
