Once a year, I guess Downtown Los Angeles closes its streets to normal traffic for several hours and opens it up to people who want to bike, walk, skate, whatever. This was a few months back, and we were able to get a good group of friends together and participate. We had such a great…
A few months ago, Stevie and I schlepped our way around Downtown L.A. to see the “Play Me, I’m Yours” Tour. It was so fun. Kind of like a scavenger hunt trying to find all the different pianos (each one decorated by a different organization). I think we found like 5 all together. While I wish I…
As most of you know, we have started Infant Stimulation, Vision and Physical therapies. Still waiting on Occupational and Speech. The processes are long. It’s a good exercise in patience. Yesterday was a particularly tough one. We had VT at 8:30 and PT at 11. Stevie was having none of it. Not interested, crying the…

I thought I had a genius idea when I found a kiddie pool at KMart. Ten bucks and it was tiny enough to fit on the front porch. With how much this kid loves the bath, and how much I hate going to the park when its really hot, I thought this would be our…
As a kid, I was always pretty good about keeping a journal. And that’s exactly what this was meant to be when I started blogging back in 2007. I never knew that it would eventually be something cathartic or a place where I would turn for support. It’s kind of a big deal to me,…
The therapists goals for today were to 1) build a relationship 2) play back & forth 3) create anticipation. I stayed and played with them and tried to learn as well. We all sat on the floor and got to know each other while passing a ball around. The therapist gives me an activity record…
Things seem to be in a real holding pattern lately. I feel like I’m waiting, waiting, waiting for things to get better. Not that things are bad, but I am feeling a strain. I know, I know. I just posted a bunch of awesome photos from a fun weekend with my family and I’m complaining…
