A couple of weeks after being rushed to the hospital, I had my baby boy on January 4th, 2012. I named him after my beloved husband Graham. He reminds me so much of Graham, he is the spitting image of him. I couldn't have asked for a healthier baby boy. Graham's parents and I chose to call my sweet boy by his middle name, Austin.
I haven't returned to work yet and Laney hasn't been found. It is early March and Austin just turned 2 months old 3 days ago.
Today was an odd day, Austin slept through the night last night which he has never done before and now he won't go back to sleep. So I decided to take him for a stroll in Sherwood Park, somewhere I have not been since my last chain of events there.
...And maybe I should have continued not to go back and visit. It seems that there is something off about my last few visits to Sherwood park. I hadn't been there but maybe 20 minutes when I got run into by a perpetrator who took Austin's diaper bag and left!
I became a victim once again in Sherwood park. Luckily, the only thing in Austin's diaper bag was a new bag of wipes, 3 diapers, and some butt paste. No money, no phone, nothing really valuable. But I sure did like that diaper bag! It was the cutest one I received after giving birth to Austin.
After a couple of people asked me if I was okay, I power walked home feeling kind of out of it. On the way, Austin fell asleep (Thank God!). I informed the Sminotes of what happened to me in Sherwood Park and agreed to never go there without another adult again. This alone made me miss Graham's presence and our walks around town.
The day ended with a nap, when the baby sleeps, I sleep. Austin would be awake in 3 hours for another feeding.
