Food for Thought

YES, food is a necessity for Thanksgiving   So, in honor of the holiday, I am giving you a quote, some food for your brain.  It is from Judy Baer’s “Million Dollar Dilema.” This is for ANYONE and EVERYONE out there, because I know at some point, ALL of us wonder “why me?”  or [...]

Catch-Up

Frustrated & Exhausted

I am exhausted and frustrated.  Ask Andrew.  He is exhausted and frustrated too.  We had those several nights where Katie slept great at night.  We recently switched to formula due to her slow weight gain and the first 2 nights on that she slept 9 hours.  Well, we were prematurely excited.  It has been downhill ever since.  [...]
