My big girl

Wow. She’s so big. To think all the ways Jordan has chanced in the last 9 months. She’s starting to try to move around. She’s trying to eat on her own. (She’s playing with chunks of banana as I write this.) She’s communicating and showing more and more opinions. Who knows if she’ll be as…

She really wants to be a big girl

Jordan is figuring more things out… She’s wiggling and moving around a bit on the floor. Enough floor time to worry my physical therapist — She’s concerned Jordan’s skin may not be able to tolerate some of the textures she’s around. So I kept watch of Jordan’s arm all day.

Quick mentions

Jordan is still a bit cranky… But I think she’s coming out of it. She is sleeping through the night again. The down side of that? I think my milk production went back up from the night feedings. Along with not enough sleep, I’m not feeling so great. Jordan, sleep, water and pain relievers are…

Busy, busy days

I’m in the middle of so many projects at work… I just haven’t been able to keep up with details on Jordan’s exciting world enough. She was sent home from school on Thursday with a fever… I couldn’t really figure out what was wrong. When she woke up on Friday with the fever still around,…

Now that's kind of strange

Jordan woke up really early this morning. I couldn’t figure out… Except it was punishment for going to bed really late. But later when I was feeding her at school, I noticed her thumb. It’s bright red and has blisters on both sides. She sucked it THAT hard. It’s gross. It has to hurt. And…

A new toy to take the cling away

Jordan is madly in love with Mommy attention. Yesterday she had to go home with a low-grade fever. So I was really worried she was getting a nasty illness that is spreading through the baby room. She went to bed last night and didn’t wake up until close to 8am. No fever. Just a little…

He's home!

Just an update: Dudley is home and well. He must have had a great time because he’s exhausted. We’ve learned a lesson and Randy has something new to tease me with.

Signs my life is too complicated

Dudley pose Originally uploaded by NerdyMom. Dudley ran away when Jordan, Cam and I rushed into the house today. Cam didn’t close the door to the garage and Dud ran off. Did we notice? Nope. Not until a very kind animal control officer called us. Someone in a neighborhood that’s about 30 minutes away in…
