Sometimes, you miss people you see every day. You're around them, you interact with them, you watch them learn things and grow. Still, with all this growth, you start to miss little trademark moments with them that you just get a bit melancholy when you realize that those little things that make them them haven't been present for a bit. We missed Max's little cooing face. We missed his energy. We missed his general happiness despite his bad predicament.
Today, we got Max's little cooing face again for the first time since before his hernia surgery. It was lovely, and it brightened up our parental faces quite a bit. It was FANTASTIC! To top it all off, just before he went off to Slumberland, he gave us a big, full-faced, non-gas-related smile. Rafael's heart soared and Brienne's eyes gleamed with a shine unseen in quite some time. This lovely, 3660g (8 lbs 1 oz) child made our night.
He also made Vóvó's night by smiling at her in between restful readjustments. She enjoyed her time with the little butterball as quite a bit.
Oh yeah. His off/on/off/on/off/on/off/on scope is off again. He's doing that well with his breathing right now. If it continues like this, he'll never need a scope.
