Home of the Four Trans

Coming soon with pictures and stories. Love my Nathan, he’s getting big! He’s still into firetrucks, cars, and trains.

Here’s a quickie: Nathan found a tambourine somewhere on the ground, and quickly ran with it to find Loi.

N: Papa, where are the wipes?

L: Uh, let me see. Why do you need wipes?

N: Because I have to clean this for Pee Wee so he can play with it.

We have made it a habit to clean every single toy with an antibacterial wipe before allowing Justin to play with it. Nathan is learning as well. Really, though, how sweet and cute is this! He also sanitizes his hands before touching PeeWee (when he’s in a good mood), and gives strangers the evil eye if they crouch in to touch Justin. It may not seem like it, but Nathan is very protective of his brother.

Another quickie: While at the electrophysiologist’s office, Nathan noticed the nurse producing a pulse/ox, and a cuff from the little cart that carries the blood pressure machine. The moment he realized the nurse was putting the cuff on Justin, he looked at me and said in an uncertain tone, “Mommy?” The nurse and I quickly explained to him that she was not going to hurt Justin. I tried my best to tell him what was going on at each step of the way. He was much more relaxed for the rest of the appointment.

Nathan is really growing up.
