Last weekend, my family came to visit! Here’s some of the stuff we did: ROLLER SKATED! DODGER GAME! SANTA MONICA PIER! THIRD STREET PROMENADE! SWIMMING! FILMED GRANDPA’S 95th BIRTHDAY VIDEO! I don’t know if the exclamation points made it clear that we were having a good time…?
Hey Moms and Dads! Another question for you from the Mother of the Year over here! As you’ve probably seen from a couple photos, we are still having trouble with Stevie spitting. *Sigh* I’m happy to say that with food it has actually improved! We use toys that are too big to fit in his…
Isn’t it sort of unbelievable that we are more than half-way through 2012? I mean, it will be Christmas in like 5 months… Feels like summer is just getting started!
We had a great day in Santa Barbara today. We passed my hometown of Oxnard on the way there and it always makes me nostalgic. Even SB makes me a little nostalgic. We went to East Beach Park near the Santa Barbara Zoo and just driving by there, it reminded me that when I was…
Baby: He is getting BIG. Like difficult-to-carry-around-BIG. He always wants to be near me, especially if he can cling to my legs. When he wants Daddy, no other person will do. He shouts “Hey!” about 100x’s a day to me and to everyone he meets. He can show you his ears, mouth, belly, arms, and…
The husband and I were the type of couple who went to the movies 2-3 times a month. Sometimes more. And there was always food involved. Dates were all the time! It’s so easy when there are no kids. But everyone knows too well that as soon as the chitlins arrive, date nights are a…
Stevie survived yet another surgery! This one was “easy”… Or as easy as they come, I suppose. A short, outpatient procedure. We were in the hospital at 5:30am and back home by 11:30am. It still felt like the longest day in history though. They corrected his Esotropia, although I don’t know how they did it, besides what…
We are in the middle of a crazy week. I think it feels extra crazy because Paul has been working 10 days in row (just 2 more to go and then some time off!!!) But he’s tired. I’m tired. Stevie is sick of me. Every day this week, I’ve been running the tyke around to…
I met with Stevie’s case worker from the Regional Center for the first time. She was nice. We went over a lot of information. Too much for my brain to remember it all. The things that stood out were Stevie’s scores on his evaluations. He will be turning 18 months in just a couple weeks…
The month of May according to my Instagr.am feed. Here comes June. And summer. And oh my goodness.
