…desperate. Last night, while discussing Isaac’s new sleep troubles with Lorena, I told her, “the good thing is, no matter what, I always know that if I can get through the day, I can count on him going to sleep at night and sleeping through the night”. When he was only a few months old, […]

Today’s Skill: Pulling Up
Apparently, Isaac learned to pull up today.I came in from the kitchen several times to find a smiling (and happy) (and stuck) little boy who had just pulled himself up to a table or couch or toy or crib. He’s been pulling up in the crib, for a couple of days, but all this other […]
teaching math never sounded so good….
This weekend has been awful.Isaac has had a lot of trouble sleeping and it’s made for a very unhappy Isaac during his waking hours. And very unhappy parents during Isaac’s waking hours. Friday night, he screamed for an hour and a half before he would go to bed. But, of course, he woke up at […]

After the doctor checked us out, it took 40 minutes for the nurse to […]

It works out, though. I think Isaac was struggling with all the commotion in the house. So far, I’ve found several […]
MONSTER DAY!!!
Yesterday was one of the worst Isaac days since the first month or so.The monster would not sleep. He started off by awakening at 5:00 am. From there, he took 3 super short naps throughout the day. He screamed and wailed while he was awake. He was SOOOOO tired, but he just refused to sleep. […]
