injury


3 nights ago I mindlessly sliced my left index finger on a kitchen knife- the four of us tromped down to urgent care and I got 3 stitches. ouch.


sophie had 2 grand birthday parties with wonderul family and friends, cakes and presents, swimming and art projects.


Alex is all over the place- cruising and loves the phones, the tv remotes. he is almost 8 months old. He is on an antibiotic for another ear infgection, as is his sister. My poor boy also got her weird fever- is not eating solids and his bottom is raw from diarrhea.


soph is in oxnard with grammy- an odd rash showed up today but she is in good spirits.


i am treading water a bit with it all-parenthood, marriage, work. wiped out and worried about sophie and behavioral issues - pushing and so argumentative.


okay i am pissed because i can't really type with the way my finger is wrapped. had popcorn and a brownie for dinner and am ready to go collapse into bed where my son is already asleep.


treading...
and oh yes. today geoff took some baby stuff to the salvation army. a playmat, a bouncy seat, a set of bath towels, other baby stuff. The bassinet. I cried and took pictures of it before it went. It made me deeply sad to see it leave our life.
