How old is Rose now? I forget how far apart she and Sammy are.

Speaking of, Sammy is now 6 months and a week. I realized in the last few days that I'm sure he didn't gain any weight from 4-6 months because of te ongoing thrush. He was never really unhappy, just not gaining much. But since he started the diflucan July 3, I'm sure he has gained 1.5 lbs at least. I'll find out tomorrow at the dr. I just put away a bunch of clothes and got out the next size. It's all the fun of shopping but free and you don't have to leave the house! Oh, and he's sitting up now, as of a week ago. I just love how one day babies can't do something and then, they just can!!

OMG my child will not sleep lately. He was up Thursday (technically Friday) at 3AM. 3EFFINAM! And stayed up until 10AM. Yesterday he was up at 4:30AM. Today we were back to 3AM. Is this his way of keeping siblings away cause I gotta say, I'm not feeling like adding a newborn to this craxy right this minute. Sigh.

On the plus side, he is happy as can be at these ungodly hours, and he really enjoyed watching men's gymnastics and swimming events last night. "More jumping?" Hee! I tried watching the opening ceremonies but I found it to be so boring. Boring and weird. That's a difficult combo to achieve IME.

Can I have some health~ma for Will's niece

She's in the hospital but he doesn't know what's going on (his sister called but had to end the phone call so he was going to call her back). She's pregnant I think 7 months and was admitted to the hospital the other day because she was sick, they aren't sure what's going on (at least that's what Will got from the conversation) but the doctor's are talking about doing a C Section.

All kinds of health~ma for Will's niece and her baby, askye.

Health~ma for Will's niece and her family.

health~ma for Will's niece! And baby.

Erin, sorry to hear the news, but happy to hear it's caused the stress to leave ya. As for the condom thing. Yeah. I just stopped buying. Sad.

ION- I have internet back!! Woot. And cable!! The old cable box had video and audio hum to it, so he gave me a new box. One with HDMI outputs, and faster processor. Woot! And yes, I can see the difference on the TV.

Alas, can't watch TV now. Gotta head to old place and deep clean it, and get the rest of my crap out of it (which is mostly cleaning supplies, packing supplies, and a lamp or two). But, I am recording the Olympics, so I can watch later.

Sending out the ~ma for Will's niece and family. How scary.

Much health~ma for Will's niece and her baby!

erin_o, sounds like this was the right thing for you, hard as the decision was. I'm glad you're less stressed!

Yes, much ma to Will's niece.

Have you guys seen the Honest Toddler blog/FB/twitter? (I'm pretty sure Glam has.). The posts on sleep are so dead on.

Just got an update from Will:

His niece has preeclampsia. She's okay now but she's got a c section scheduled for tomorrow or Tuesday. Her blood pressure was 200/? (Will didn't remember) when she was admitted Friday night but now it's back to normal. She's 7 months pregnant and so the doctors think everything will be okay after she delivers.
