When my grandmother died I got, among other things, a packet of all the letters I ever wrote her.

Plei, when you look at daycares I'd ask them about scheduled feedings and how comfortable they are with expressed breastmilk. I think they should be able to manage. I would recommend sending many small bottles - as little as 2oz each - so you don't have waste. The book "Nursing Mother Working Mother" has a lot of good advice. Be prepared for Lily's feeding habits to be different with someone else than they are with you, or to change when she goes into care. Eve never drank more than 12oz of expressed milk in an 8-9 hour day, but then, she was nursing all night long.

vw, if it helps any, I'm up at 4am. On purpose. Just eating breakfast then will be heading out the door to gt to the office by 5.

Susan, I hope it is just a tickle. Vitamin C and lots of fluids...

Hope you have a fun evening, Raq! Glad my demand on little Mal worked :).

Poor Maidengurl. No one should have to be up at that ungodly hour. And then to work? Craziness! I mean, I know why you do it, but I certainly don't envy you.

I just paged my therapist to help decide what I'm going to do today. I hate this.

If you were four-years-old, would you think this was a cool prezzie from your Auntie Val? [link] and [link]

Timelies, everyone.

Oh yeah. I got one for my niece a few years ago, and she loved it.

Not getting sick ~ma to Susan.

Oh, good.

vw - I can't wait to get caught up at work and for my assistant to return (she has been out since March 24th). Maybe then I can return to my regular start time. 6am. Hey, that hour is going to be pure HEAVEN.

I don't know what 4 year old girls are into anymore. My son gave a 5 year old neighbor a Care Bear and she adores it. But then again, she has a super huge crush on CJ, so I think she'd be thrilled with an empty gum wrapper from him.

timelies-

back still hurts like the dickens, when sitting at the computer. Work is not so fun. In conclusion, a sucky day will be had today by Nora.

Hope you are doing better today, vw.

5am is a totally crazy start time. I can't wait for your assistant to return either. For your sake, of ocourse.

Awwww...that's sweet. (about CJ and the crush). This particular little one specifically asked for a couch for her dolls. But, I don't know what size her dolls are, so I thought I'd throw in another doll too. I'm a sucker for those little ones.

My therapist hasn't called. I haven't gotten in the shower. Looks like no class for me today. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

This week the extra hour has more been an offset to the time I go see my mom, so it has not been too productive, but it is easier for me to come in early than to stay late.

I think that is a great doll couch, especially if that is what was requested.

If you have a cordless phone and can hear it ring in the shower...go take a shower.
