Not bad at this travel thing
Jordan is taking her second nap of the day in a very long multi-state drive. She's come across two challenges: not getting every toy she wants and not being able to pick up things she dropped to her left. Gross moment of the day: I gave her a chocolate chip granola bar. I look over…

Cam and I went to the Lion King lqst night. It was an amazing show. Cam did a really good job, enjoyed the show and usually asked questions quietly. It's all he's talking about today… Along with asking what state are we in. Not quite "are we there yet" but close.

Why oh why oh why do I wait to pack until the last minute? Why? To make matters more interesting, I took the kids to a birthday party tonight after work. Jordan was already ready for bed when we get there. She was doing pretty well once she noticed there was pizza to eat. So…

No allergies! Jordan’s doctor emailed me and let me know that after the girl’s blood was tested for many, many allergens it appears that she doesn’t have any allergies.

I watched an amazing thing happen yesterday. My daughter gorged on popcorn. She’s didn’t just eat a lot… She ate so much that I had to leave the movie to refill the popcorn tub. We took the family to see Ratatouille. It’s a really sweet movie… But I don’t really think it’s the kind of…

I took Jordan to have her blood drawn to get us closer to finding out if she has a food allergy (or some kind of allergy). No fun. We had to have three people to make it happen. I held her body. Another woman held her arm while another woman too Jordan’s blood. Miss Jordan…

Not much to say… But I watched Jordan help make this little holiday hat at school yesterday. It helped her look even more festive in her outfit. Highlight of the day: Plopping my festively dressed girl in the sandbox… shoes and all. Then I watched her take a head dive into the sand and come…

Here's a sweet sleepy moment I captured in the car last Sunday after the big zoo trip. I sat in the parking lot while the rest of the family got custard. I caught this shot on my cellphone.

The girl’s intestinal issues aren’t improving. GROSS. So we’re going to start allergies tests on Thursday to figure out what’s going on. We’re close to a month of icky poops. I have no experience in this kind of ongoing health problem. I’d like to say it’s just teeth, but I don’t know! Here is a…
