Random Short Thoughts II

• Progress from last Random Short Thoughts as the Bristol Zoo lions now only produce smiles from me.

• Sometimes I wonder why we bother to feed this kid.  Obviously, not really, but I do get frustrated with the reflux.  Paul has a better attitude: "net is a percentage of gross"

• I may never get these events/picture posts up recapping his life.  I really did start them as requested, but progress isn't too fast.  Maybe when we all get back at work full-time I'll get more productive.

• I have now thought I was depressed-like twice since Chiron was born.  Both turned out to be blocked ducts/mastitis/breast infection type things.  So, if I claim to be depressed again, someone tell me to do a breast exam.

• It's odd to have a living, breather example of exactly how old a stillborn child would be at any moment.

• I really am going to write my pumping summary guide.  Really, before a good friend who asked about it goes into labor.

• I find it very amusing when I read Wordless Wednesday posts that are chockfull of words

• I think this is a great article.  We aren't there yet, but it's nice to know people think about it.  And it happens to be written by my fabulous OB.

• And I love this picture.  There are some that are more traditionally "sweet", but this just makes me happy

• I am really having fun being able to experience both boys together "on my own".  This is probably a normal thing for most parents, but between Chiron being in the NICU and not being able to go most places, I'm just starting to have opportunities where I can do things with the two of them.  And I like it.
