Mommies

We did an evaluation with the nurse today on Chance's CGM. Great news was that he had very consistent patterns. The nurse said she wanted to use his data as an example. We are increasing his nighttime basal rate since he is slightly trending up and could be a little lower at night, and increasing his breakfast and morning snack I:C ratio. Really the only time of day that Chance's numbers were high were from 8 am-1 pm. Not too bad and we should be able to correct this.

For the next few nights, we'll get up during the night to do the 3 am check. Then, hopefully back to sleeping.

Tas has a new noun, which I love. He calls flowers of any type "Mommies". I take this as a compliment and it really touches me every time he does this. Chance will chime in as well. Tonight, on our stroller walk they were pointing to all the flowers in bloom saying "Mommies". How sweet!

Tas also has a memory like an elephant. It amazes me the things he remembers. Two weekends ago, we hosted our neighbor Cole who was recently diagnosed with type 1 and his Mom for lunch. Tonight, Cole walked by and said, "Hi Tas and hi Chance", which was very nice. Keep in mind that we haven't mentioned his name since he was at our house. Tas turned around and said "Hi Cole". I was amazed!
