Caden's eyes still aren't draining. At all. No difference from before the surgery and we're five days out. I keep hoping that things will improve, but that attitude is also why I waited until she was two to do this surgery. amykck and another mom both told me their kid's eyes started draining correctly almost immediately. *sigh ( Read more... )

I watched it late last night so I haven't looked anywhere online yet, but I'm happy. I really never thought they would be able to resolve things in a way that wouldn't leave me angry in some way, but I'm happy. I liked it. ( The fact that )

I stopped exercising regularly sometime in mid-November. Right around then I realized I needed to replace my running shoes stat, then there was the break up, everyone got sick, the holidays rolled around, and here we are. I've run a few times in the last few weeks, but nothing regular. The last time I ran my hips ached, and I realized that if I ( Read more... )

It's milestones galore around here! Yesterday, first poop in the bathtub. Caden passed it out to me and said "Thank you!" No, thank YOU Caden! Today I scheduled an appointment to get their hair cut for the first time! What hair right? But the back of the hair is tangled and breaking off and it's only getting worse. I think their hair may ( Read more... )
