I know everyone and their dog enters contests like this. So we figured we’d throw our bean into the mix too. Why not. If you feel so inclined, we would love a few votes for this little monkey. VOTE FOR ME!

This Mother's Day...
I slept until 8:30. My husband suggested I sleep until noon, but I didn’t want the day to get away from me. A sure sign that I’m getting old! I watched the “1st Mother’s Day” video that my husband made for me last year. I cried. Again. I had a week filled with lovely surprises,…
More Mommy Help
I know this blog is on the verge of being a real downer. But I need advice. Again. When God was passing out the motherly instinct gene, I must have given Him the finger. And now he’s getting back at me. Everyone knows Stephen has had his rough patches as far as sleep goes. And…
Bumps in the Road
Today I got a bit of a reality check. And I did not really like it. We all know that Stephen is behind is his development. We expected this, because of how many crucial developing days he was stuck in a hospital bed. I have mostly been concerned about his lack of communication and the…

Why Is My Kid SO WEIRD?

Hair
Just wanted to show off the craziness that is Stevie’s hair. He’s got a bit of a mad scientist look going on. But I just love it!
Eye Surgery Postponed AGAIN.
So… Stevie was supposed to have eye surgery in January. But as you may recall, that got postponed at the last minute. We have been waiting patiently for his rescheduled operation this coming Monday. This past week was spent at pre-op appointments and on the phone getting things squared away. Friday morning, he woke up with green…

Look who finally learned how to pull himself up on the furniture! (Not an easy task, since there’s not much to hold on to) He looks so big!
