So to follow up on yesterday’s post on SweetPea’s slowly degrading schedule, I have to say that yesterday was an anomaly.
Thank God.
She was so upset yesterday — all day. My husband said that aside from when she was actively eating or sleeping and the odd 20 minutes here and there, SweetPea was basically inconsolable. [...]

Media alert

It’s been a big media day for me here, at my office, in front of my computer.
The higher-ups are in China for the next week and a half with our choir’s tour of Beijing and Shanghai. The group left on Tuesday, but I got a call from my guy down at the university’s New Services [...]

So, as soon as I wrote a post about SweetPea’s penchant for schedules, she goes and proves me wrong. I expect this will be a pattern in my life.
In the last week, SweetPea has decided that she will nap on her own time and also not be happy about it. We’ve had more crying jags [...]
CTs and the SBR

I had to go in for CT scans yesterday — never a fun outing. I get CTs of my chest, neck, abdomen and pelvis every six months to make sure that I’m still cancer-free. Lucky for me (and for SweetPea), I got to skip the last set of scans due to the pregnancy. [...]

After church tomorrow we’re taking SweetPea to my husband’s parents’ house in Cville. We haven’t made it up there yet since SP was born, and the long weekend is a nice opportunity to do so without wearing anyone out. Right now, I’m packing an additional bag for her with extra diapers, blankets and outfits so [...]
1st 100 days

SweetPea will be 100 days old tomorrow. I’m amazed by this. It seems she’s been here forever and as if she was just born.
And she just keeps getting bigger.
In 100 days, she has fully integrated herself into our hearts, minds, souls, home and family. My life has changed so radically and yet it’s been the [...]

I like schedules. The Google calendar I set up for our family is a rainbow of appointments, gigs, meetings, church events, lessons and anything else I can think of to put on there. I keep a separate iCal at work to get me through each day here. Not only do these serve [...]

We took SweetPea to her 3 month checkup today. She was a total pro. Put up with Dr. B’s poking and prodding without complaint, showed off how she loves to stand up with those cute legs, and was basically the cutest thing in her little cloth diaper.
She weighs 11 pounds and 3 ounces, is 22 [...]
