Fill #8

We completed Evan’s eighth fill on Thanksgiving. It was the first fill where we had the whole day to prepare. Typically, we get home from work, gob on the numbing cream, wait an hour, then get the process started. But as most parents know, you are going going going from the second you pick up the babes until the second you go to bed. It was so
nice to relax during this fill and take our time. We complete the
fills during the week so we can easily reach out to the nurses/doctor should we need them.

Because of the fear of germs, we decided to have an JeffAshleyEvan turkey day. We typically spend the holiday with my family, but that would have required flying out to LA, which was just not in the cards. Jeff’s family rolls 30+ deep for T-day, and we just have no idea who
might be on the verge of getting sick as we are in the middle of
cold/flu season. It is hard for me to be this precautious because I’m by no means a germaphob! But we wanted to do what was best for Evan, which meant hosting a dinner for the three of us. Luckily, Evan took 4 hours worth of naps which gave us a ton of time to prepare and eat the
meal without having to rush.

This fill was also the first fill we completed without guests/helpers. We weren’t concerned, and as usual, Evan did wonderfully. We got in 23 cc’s which puts us at 188 cc’s, which is 75% of our goal. It is just
crazy that two weeks ago we eclipsed the halfway point, last week we hit 2/3, and this week 3/4. We are so close!
