The past week has been one of change and challenges for me. I am usually not lacking things I want to write about, but the past few days have been ... well, busy. I've jotted little random thoughts in my "possible blog" notebook but none of them really warrants a full blown blog. So I … Continue reading Jotting Down Some Randomness

She’s Movin’ On Up!
There is nothing that makes time move faster than watching your children grow. In 6 months, Ella will be 4 years old. It seems like just yesterday that I was blogging about getting her room and crib put together! Moving from the crib to a toddler bed was the next big step. This is a … Continue reading She’s Movin’ On Up!
Hit the Deck!
So, my father-in-law and I are working on yet another project. This one, however, was not a planned project. And as per usual, once we started it, we found that we'll be doing more than expected. This time it is our side porch. Forgive the photo, but the only one I could find was one … Continue reading Hit the Deck!
Afternoon Delight
Every doctor appointment I go to starts this way: Doctor: You still working midnights? Me: Yes Doctor: Yeah, we gotta get you off those! Well, she will be happy when I come to the next appointment! I will finally be able to answer "no." A week or so ago, our interim manager called to ask … Continue reading Afternoon Delight
Another Surgery Soon
My youngest son, Andrew, has had his share of challenges in his almost two years. After his first sleep study, he was diagnosed with laryngomalacia. It was causing him to have sleep apnea. A surgery was done to correct that problem. While in surgery, a cleft was discovered and the surgeon filled it. Three months … Continue reading Another Surgery Soon
Princesses and Ponies

I won't lie, I'm pretty proud of the fact that I do know most of them and that I can have a "princess" conversation with … Continue reading Princesses and Ponies
A Crappy (and funny) Story
Every now and then, I have to blog a story just so I won't forget it. This is one of those times. We have one of those inflatable pools for the kids. You know the ones I'm talking about? They kind of look like this: Ours is a bit bigger than the one above. We … Continue reading A Crappy (and funny) Story
Conference, Clubs, and Croup
Conference Many readers know I work in Sleep Medicine. Every year there is a sleep conference in Detroit that we try to go to to earn our Continuing Education Units to keep our registry. That conference was last week. Sam and I drove down to Detroit early Thursday afternoon. (The kids got a sleepover at … Continue reading Conference, Clubs, and Croup
Celebrating Summer
Yesterday was the first day of summer and my family is certainly ready for it! We got an early start a few weeks ago with our day trip to the beach in Caseville, MI. At home, we've got the big sprinkler that looks like a fire hydrant and a blow up pool in the yard … Continue reading Celebrating Summer
Father’s Day 2023
Father's Day Morning I found out at 3:40am that Mowgli, the new kitten, has quite a loud "meow!" I tried to go back to sleep, but for some reason, I was not able to. So I put on a pot of coffee and grabbed my book. Sam got home from work and had the kids … Continue reading Father’s Day 2023
