My busy brain
My brain never really shuts down. It’s always thinking… It’s a problem I’ve always had. But since Jordan was born, it’s full of so many new things. I start thinking about what I need to do for both kids, the house, my marriage, my job, my health, my dogs… And I try to think of…
Read More +12 Hours
Yup. Best 10 week old baby in the world. She slept 12 hours last night. That is exactly 2 hours longer than her brother. That makes me smile. I have a ton of pictures I took of her today, because I can’t stop taking pictures.
Read More +Calling all pediatric PT experts!!
We need one for Jordan and we need one now! I just got back from an apppointment with a physical medicine and rehabilitation doctor in town. He and a team of people met with us in the PM&R clinic to talk about Jordan and check her out. The poor thing was hungry and tired and…
Read More +Kind of blah
It was a dreary looking day outside today. It started with a thunderstorm… which kind of was symbolic of my illness that roared back from Sunday. I’m not sure how I’m going to kick it. So Jordan and I took it easy to day. We took Cam to school during an awake time for Jordan.…
Read More +Busy and fun day
Jordan and I had a very busy day (after she slept ELEVEN hours last night). I realize a busy day isn’t new during my “maternity leave.” Anyway. Jordan helped me teach a broadcast 2 class where I explained to the students how to survive their reporter shifts at the station. Jordan fell asleep in my…
Read More +10 hours and 45 minutes
That’s right. Jordan slept for 10 hours and 45 minutes straight last night. She loves me. I wasn’t feeling well yesterday and the long stretch of sleep really helped. I was so icky feeling, that I had to call a friend and ask her to buy me drugs. (Thanks Lynda!) The good news is the…
Read More +Going with the flow
So it looks like I didn’t jinx myself. Jordan is actually sleeping 8 straight hours. She takes one food break and sleeps for another 4. We’re on our way to 12 hours a night. I’m thrilled that she’s following the same sleeping pattern as Cam. We’ll see if we can continue this pattern when I…
Read More +A fact I forgot to mention
I know I’m cursing myself for writing this in the blog: But the last two nights Jordan has slept between 7 and 8 hours… Followed by 4 hours. Of course that stretch starts at 7pm and I don’t get to bed until later at night. If I was smart, I’d go to bed earlier. If…
Read More +On our own
Randy is on a very long flight to Russia right now. And that means this week is my first time alone with both kids. It started immediately… I had a couple of meetings and I wanted to stay at home as late as possible to say good bye to Randy. So Cam, Jordan and I…
Read More +2 Months Old!
Amazing. Can you believe she turned 2 months old today? It’s incredible. It’s also incredible that we had another warm day. It was warm enough to go to the local gardens and hang out (almost 80 degrees). You should have seen how engaged she was out in nature. We sat under a willow tree. Sure,…
