Awesome thing Liam's currently working on: singing! Sometimes almost in tune! His favorite song at the moment is "Tinkle witta 'tar, how wa wa wa wa wa wa..." :)

Not-so-awesome thing: not going to sleep until 9:30 pm. Every night. And now he's back to waking up easily at 7am.

...crazy busy/stressed recently, having a lot to do with going out of town every week, so not very present anywhere. But non-work craziness happening in my life as well that I actually managed to write about...

So Dobby (our bunny) was diagnosed with glaucoma today. This comes after about a week's worth of eye drops and oral meds for a presumed eye infection. Unfortunately, Khiara (the cat) actually swiped Dobby's eye several years ago (for the record, sometimes he chased her) and he had developed a cataract from that. Apparently these can rupture and ( Read more... )

I know I posted at least once about falling a breaking my wrist last August. Quick recap: fell down the stairs (while I had meningitis), broke my scaphoid bone (tiny bone below the thumb) but didn't discover it was broken for 3 months. Unfortunately, this particular bone tends to not heal well, especially if someone goes around trying to use it ( Read more... )

So I just have to vent....one of my classmates from med school just posted on Facebook all excited that his daughter is in a Similac ad. And of course, everyone has replied how wonderful it is.

I wanted to actually write down what words Liam currently says, just because, mostly for my own reference. Some are very cute. Spelling is, of course, subjective and they're in no particular order. And seriously, he came up with these, some of them I have no idea where from ( Read more... )

So I was checking my bank accounts today to discover that my supposedly fee-free checking account has been charged a $20 maintenance fee for the last two months. Currently chatting w/ customer support. I actually tried calling (a miracle for those of you who know how much I hate talking on the phone) but Liam fell and hit his head and I got lost ( Read more... )

Feeling the urge to do more actual blogging. Probably won't last long ( Read more... )

I got a new camera! I've been wanting a DSLR for a while now and ordered one on Black Friday. It came in today! Unfortunately, Liam went to sleep pretty soon after the battery was charged, so only a few pics.

So the other night I had a revelation....I was thinking about this whole scaphoid fracture thing and trying to figure out first of all, why I broke my wrist when I really didn't fall that hard, having never broken a bone before, and second, why it's taking so long to heal (even factoring in the fact it was never casted and I only wore a brace for a ( Read more... )
