Even more photos!

I realise we've been a bit quiet on the blogging front. You can appreciate it's hectic and stressful at the moment with the frequent trips to the hospital. However, that's not to say we're not taking time out to enjoy ourselves as a family when the opportunity presents itself.
We enjoyed a lovely bike ride this Saturday, a chance to enjoy the sunshine and get to know our new neighbourhood. As you can see, Noah was like a prince in his carriage. He really enjoyed himself.


Thijs did all the hard work, the box-bike is quite heavy once you add a few bottles of oxygen, a suction machine, Noah, and the dog!

Even though this is a tough time for Noah, he's still managing to surprise us. His development keeps on developing! Just for fun, Noah's nurse Heleen, put him on his seat (previously too big and too advanced for him) .... well, this was a surprise!

What a big boy :) He was able to balance himself and as you can see, his feet touch the floor!! Heleen is not one to let the grass grow under Noah's feet so she tried him on a stool (no back, and so therefore harder work for his tummy muscles to keep him stable).

Ta-da!

It's not only Noah's daddy that's incredible (see t-shirt), but our Noah is incredible. I keep wanting to call him my little boy, but he's not little anymore! :)

We're off to the hospital again this Friday for another stent change. His usual doctor is on holiday, but the surgeons performing the change were in attendance previously so it should be fine. We're very lucky in that the hospital let us come home after the procedure, it's a long day but at least Noah gets to sleep in his own bed at night.

We'll write as soon as we're able to string a few coherent sentences together, but for now we hope you enjoy the photos. :)
