We are in Batavia. We made a last minute decision to split the drive up across two days. We drove the first 7 hours yesterday afternoon and night (it took 9.5 hours). Then we drove the last 3 hours this morning (that took 3.5 hours). He was a good traveller at times and not-so-good at […]

On Our Own Again
(sung to the tune of “On the road again”….) My mom, Frankie and Jake left this morning, so it’s just the three of us again.It was a very productive weekend. The boy has started taking naps in his bassinet (vs. the bed or his papasan chair or with a human grownup). He also has been […]
Family Visit Update
My family has been here for two days now. On Thursday, my mom stayed with Isaac while I went to school. He was very good for her, so she doesn’t believe that he’s ever fussy. He’s got her snowed. When I got home from school, we went to the park. We took the ATS (All […]

Grandma Trip #3
My mom is coming again!She hasn’t seen Isaac T. since he wass 5 weeks old. He’ll be 11 weeks old tomorrow.He’s so very different, I wonder if she’ll even recognize him. I started back to school. There are 41 days left in the year. That’s all.
And then they were gone
My Mom (Grandma), Uncle Frankie (Great Uncle Frankie) and Brother (Uncle) left early this morning. I was sad to see them go. All the extra hands have been very helpful. They got to see Isaac smile. That was good. They also got to see him cry, poop, eat, and sleep. Those are his specialties. We […]

Busy Day
Yesterday was a very busy day for the monster. Probably the busiest since we were at the hospital. Those days were very busy for him too (being born, being circumcised, getting shots and tests…). Anyhow, yesterday, I took Isaac to Derek’s work so that he (Derek) could show him (Isaac) off to all of his […]
Sleeping with Grandma Lidbom
Sir Isaac took a long nap with Derek’s mom today. It was a good break for me. And she rather enjoyed herself as well.
