SLEEP

Praise the Lord Sophia is well. Well she was finally a 100% a week after I blogged last. What a trooper. But now her sleep patterns are so off track. And I long for sleep for her, sleep for David and oh yes, sleep for me. Lord be with us. But I am thankful this is all we have to deal with.

Tomorrow I will attempt a new addition to our (Sophia and me) schedule: Stroller striders. Exercising outdoors with your baby. I can imagine those, ummm, 25 pounds or so melting off me now and Sophia contentedly taking it all in for 75 minutes.....I am staying positive. I am not going to think about the fact that it may be quite chilly and I may cop out yet again and instead decide to stay home and practice finding the perfect sugar free pumpkin and apple pie recipes. THus adding more poundage in the taste testing phase. AH, but sacrifices must be made. Which will I make? We shall see.

Well, I not only have stroller striders to look forward to but also a Thanksgiving meal to prepare for (yeah baby, it is all going down in my territory this time), and, as if I wasn't crazy for doing that, a cookie exchange to coordinate and decorate all Christmasy for the week after Thanksgiving.

No, I am typically so not a busy person at all and all the events coming up are of my making but I have been a happy hermit too long and Sophia may appreciate a little more socializing. I hope y'all have a happy Thanksgiving and I am pretty sure I won't be blogging until closer to Christmas.
Blog ya later.

My second blog ever

My little sweet Sophia is sick. Oh. Prayers indeed. I think about the scripture in Romans where we are told as believers that the Holy Spirit interprets our groans as prayers and yeah, I am groaning. I pray that this diarrhea, fever and throwing up bug will shoo-shoo away and be cleaned out of her body and that her little immune system will be girded up for any other bugs that dare to be encountered. She is such a little inspiration to me though, as often babies are. She doesn't complain,really, only small fits when she is having a bad bout or when her fever has been way up. And this has been going on now for 8 days. But she still wants to play, love, and laugh, when the fever breaks and she is hydrated and rested. Prayers for anyone that reads this and is going through the same.

I know I will blog again with better news. I would like to blog more but I am somehow waiting for the perfect blogtime and hoping to be a perfect blog writer that I don't end up blogging at all.

Ah, well, until another time.

My very first blog ever

I am oddly excited. But I really have nothing to post or announce besides the fact that I have embarked on this new online adventure. I am most definitely not tech savvy so I will hopefully make this a more sophisticated and fun journal for my family and friends that want to check in with our little family and our news. Plus I like having this forum for a type of computer scrapbooking.....but at least this time I might actually finish something. Happy reading to all.
