Making my kids hate me one post at a time.
It’s been a long year around here. If you wanna read about the dramatic way this guy decided to join us last January 31st, click here. Me? I wanna put all that behind me and celebrate how far he’s come one year later. On Meyer’s actual birthday, Asher was in school and Gabe was at […]
I’m so nervous this morning, I’m thinking of having a bowl of Xanax Krispies for breakfast. Baby M has his big swallow study in less than 2 hours. The last one was in June. He failed. Boy, did he fail. He aspirated on his second or third swallow of barium-laced milk. And then he proceeded […]
