Olivia is about to start her 8th month of treatment and she is doing really well. She has been sleeping a lot during the day, probably about 5 hours combining her morning and afternoon naps. She sleeps through the night too. She gets tired a lot. But when she's awake we make the most out of her energetic hours.
Last night, while the boys were out to attend a party, I took Olivia out on a date after she woke up from a 4 hour nap. First stop was at a pharmacy to pick up some stuff for the house. Olivia used to love going to the grocery store and you can see how she missed going grocery shopping. I figured it's better to take her to the pharmacy where there's less people than the grocery store She picked up the 1 thing she needed - M&M's! To the cashier that complimented Olivia's hat and outfit, thank you for making her feel so special. Olivia was so thankful that I took her out.
Here's Olivia a couple of months before she turned 2 years old doing some grocery shopping.
The night didn't end there. Next stop was at a book store and she picked up a couple of new books. I was so happy to see her getting excited with her surroundings and even riding the escalator. She obviously hasn't gone on one in a while.
Afterwards we picked up food for take out. I would have had dinner at the restaurant with her but I just didn't want to risk her being around a lot of people.
It was a really wonderful night with this little princess. She was so thankful and told me that I was beautiful. My heart just melted. She couldn't wait to go home and tell dad all about our date. I love you my beautiful Olivia!
