Apparently Wednesday morning it's free to go to the Olbrich conservatory until noon, and see the display in the side room. Today I took Morella to see a bunch of gingerbread houses. They really aren't as impressive as I thought they would be, however almost every single one of the kids there was drooling over it and telling their little friends ( Read more... )

"Hot blooded. Check it and see. Gotta a fever of 103."

Morella's first real fever, complete with apathy came today her three day run (so far) of teething. I can't wait to get my baby back -- the one that likes to crawl, play with toys and not cry all the time in agony.

Where are all the enterprising youth today, ready and raring to go with rakes in hand? I could use one of them right now.

Today was the kind of day I stayed in. Morella is teething something feirce. She's all snot nosed and miserable and just kind of has cried off and on all day. Poor girl. She better have 30 teeth by the end of the week or else....

Alright. Baby in bed (what's up with the 7:00 bed time? Not that I am complaining!!), Gears of War II is primed, we got beer -- looks like an awesome date night, no?

Single parenting -- day two. It's hard. When Morella doesn't drink more than 7 ounces in a day you start to wonder how a human being can keep doing that (currently on day 12 of 8 ounces of less a day). All the optimism I have in the morning that we can get through this is drained and in the red come her bed time.

Current Projects:

--Putting a liner in Morella's homemade fleece sleep sack
--White and green themed rag rug
--Handmade invitations for a 1st birthday
--Blogging
--Setting up a playgroup

VICTORY!

For the record, I am well on track in my regular blog Wazika that you should have already added to your bloglines, gmail reader or other rss feeds ( Read more... )
