Yesterday, I took the boy to school to meet my “other kids”. He slept the entire time. The girls were excited to see him. The boys couldn’t have cared less. Some of the nerds tried to ask questions about math, but I refused. I’m not a very good teacher, I guess. I don’t suppose I’ll […]
Photogenic Baby
Kristen Boone stopped by today and dropped of a cd containing all these super cute black and white pictures of Isaac T. She took them last Tuesday when she brought us some delicious chicken pie and cookies. And salad, but it was overshadowed by the pie and cookies. Anyhow…. Here’s a sampling of her artwork.
Two Weeks
I snapped this super cute picture of the boy today. The doctor suggested a little bit of “tummy time” so that he could develop his upper body strength. He wasn’t quite doing pushups yet, but he did manage to lift his head and turn a few times. It won’t be long until he’s in the […]
Fat Baby
We went to the doctor today. Isaac has gained one pound and four ounces since last Monday. He’s 8 lbs and 8 oz. as of today. He can put down some food. In other news, he slept a lot better last night and today. Relieving, somewhat. But, I know we aren’t out of the woods […]
At wit’s end…
Our baby won’t sleep.For hours. It’s not just a “sleep through the night” issue. He just would rather be awake.This wouldn’t be so bothersome, if he was happily awake. But, he cries and cries and cries. I don’t know if it’s digestion problems. His food sure is making it’s way out the other end. I […]
Better Night
We had a much better night last night…The boy slept from 11 until 2ish. Then we fed him and he chilled back out and slept with me from 4 until 7am. It wasn’t great sleep, but sleep it was (for me, that is). This morning, however, is a different tale. He’s not really slept much […]
Rough Night
So, Baby Isaac T. decided that he wasn’t going to go to sleep last night. He ate and ate and ate. Had a number of diaper changes. Cried. Cried more. But, not much sleeping. I was asleep for most of this, because he super nice husband decided to handle the boy for a few hours […]
Day 1 – On our own
My mom and Terry and Jake (and canine, Zeke) left this morning.It was sad. Now we are all alone in our parenting duties. Overall, it went well. It’s definitely tiring. It’s midnight (or a few minutes past) and we’re just sitting around waiting for Isaac to awaken for another feeding, changing, burping, possibly another changing, […]
The last week of my life….
So, I’m feeling a little better and ready to post some details. Last Tuesday, we went to the doctor for an ultrasound and appointment. My blood pressure was high, so they sent us to the hospital. Turns out, I was also 4 cm dialated and having contractions (although I didn’t feel them). Since the ultrasound […]
