Wiggle it…just a little bit…

Our two precious boys are doing very well and we are bursting with happiness, relief, and hope.  We have been on a roller-coaster since we saw them last week and were given the news of Elija’s passing.  No matter how many times I heard from the doctor that they looked good, I needed to see them [...]

Grief

Please understand that Noel and I will not be available to the blog world.  Our doctor informed us today that Baby B died within the last week.  He had no explanation for the loss so far along in the pregnancy and as you can imagine, all of us are shocked as  each boy was progressing [...]

Tigers and One Refluxed Crab

 
 
Maslow just wants to send a shout out to the Detroit El-Tigres for winning game two of the World Series!   
The good spirited person of just a few days ago was temporarily replaced with one major sideways walking waddling crab.  Seems that I had a lovely reaction to the steroid shots (imagine a 2 day asthma attack [...]

Hubby Moves into the Hood

Aside from all my knitting buds, a lot of our friends and fam are e-mailing and calling to want to “check in” to find out the status of our new hybrid triplet project.  If I’m ever MIA or either of us are not contactable – hubby has decided to start his own blog as an [...]

“Strap in honey, we’re going for a ride!”

Strap in means this not this.  I took my maiden voyage in the “M”today to head to my perintologist’s office for my steroid shot this afternoon.  This is my second series  of shots which are for aiding in the development of  lung maturity.  It’s sad that I labeled today an “exciting day” cause I got to put [...]

You Know it’s Cold When….

You know it’s cold when you call your dog’s name ’cause she hasn’t been seen for awhile and this pops out:

My blinds are drawn, no tv and newspapers, I can only hear what it happening outside and it doesn’t sound like summer.
Last night I received some pretty devastating new instructions regarding when I do my home monitoring [...]

Weird Day…or at least weirder than the norm, which isn’t saying much.  First, as many Michiganders have posted on their blogs, the weather is for crap here – rain and calls for rain/snow mix – it’s windy, gray, and gross.  The day moved to shooting back pains and a feeling that one of these cheeky [...]
