This post has been a long time coming. Once upon a time – almost three months ago which in toddler-development-time is like three hundred years – I started to write… At H’s 18-month doc appointment three weeks months ago, I knew it was coming – the dreaded question – and was prepared with the canned [...]
The kid woke up asking for cake. So, I gave him some. No frosting though – duh! – I’m not a totally delinquent mother! Marc’s parents are here and they bought some cakes and left them in the fridge right in front of the milk. So, every time I fill up the kid’s milk – [...]
I was just going to post this old animated gif of the kid (sort of) waving without commenting on it, but, the more I look at the roundness of his face I can’t help but, reflect on how far we’ve come. In just a year we have gone from waiting weeks for any sort of [...]

We head back to Austin tomorrow. Excited to be getting home. Sad that we didn’t get enough time with friends and family. And scared that Harrison will be forever scarred from being taken 2,000 miles away from his most favorite person in the whole wide world. Listening: Dead Man’s Bones
