What a day!

-
Our day started at 4:00 this morning when Rory woke (after waking up MANY times during the night) crying inconsolably for over an hour. It was pitiful. She was clearly in pain and nothing I did helped at all. I was in tears just watching her. She finally fell asleep after we turned on her Korean CD, but then promptly threw up a few minutes later. She spent the rest of the day on the couch with me. It reminded me alot of when she first came home. She was attached to my body 100% of the time, would scream if Brian came near or touched her. She even slept about 4 hours this morning on me, but if I dared move a muscle, she would just sob. It was pitiful. She seemed a bit better this evening and even ate some goldfish and drank a few swallows of juice. We've got a doctor's appointment tomorrow morning so they can look at her ears again since we had to stop the antibiotic with all the vomiting and diarrhea going on. I'm really hoping she's not dehydrated. She has hardly eaten or drank anything at all in the past 48 hours. I did put her down in the crib at 7:30 (normal time) and she went down without a fight so hopefully tonight will be a bit better.

I'm going to go crash and maybe treat myself to ice cream. I think I earned it today.

Blogging, Not Blogging

Blogging feels awkward these days. Not blogging feels a bit like abandoning an old friend. In this season of life it doesn't feel necessary to jot down every cute quip (and that's only partially because they don't say nearly as many cute things). The kiddos (even that is strange - can I still call a 12 and 9 year old kiddos?) are more likely to say "don't put that on your blog!" Rory still likes the attention, but Camden is feeling the need for privacy. But they also still love to read my words. Not a week goes by that they don't pull out blog books from previous years and pore over the pictures and words. Rory giggles and retells the stories; Camden quietly takes in the tougher subjects. Here's the truth. I have less to share because life is both busy and unexciting at the same time. I cannot distinguish between what is important to remember and what will be meaningless in 20 years when Camden and Rory are grown with families of thei

Cousins, part 3 (the adult version)

-

So I'm notoriously bad about including adults in the picture when we're all together, and this trip was no exception. Here are the very few that include adults. Becky is always my test subject before the cousin photo shoots. At the baseball game (which was incredibly hot/humid and started nearly an hour late). Kids were pretty wiped out after their naps following the return from camp. (the adult who spent a week at camp might have been tired too) Camden had the camera and took these pictures of me and Becky, Liz, and mom. Lewis/Hale/Derby/Lemons family - you're all caught up!

7/52: Pastel

-
Image
This week's theme was pastel and there's not a whole lot of pastel in our house, much less with my black-eyed, black-haired Korean gal. However, she gave me about 10 minutes of cooperation in 10 degree weather and we attempted a pastel snow picture. The first one is my official pastel picture, but I included the other attempts because it was pretty darn fun. This is a new face I'm seeing often these days. By the way, she has 3 shirts underneath this dress, a pair of pajama pants and a pair of hot pink sweat pants. LOL
