Good Day!

Had a good day today- first morning jugglin’ the tot and the teenie one, but it went pretty well! We even got a walk in to collect dandelions.

This afternoon we managed to get the four of us into a car and over to the midwife, where everything is “perfect”. Verity has already gained her birth weight back and lost her umbilical cord stump, and I am doing superbly, save this rough cold. Oh, and crisis averted- no pink eye! Just a terrible sinus virus that involves the eyes in it’s coarse. I’m doing everything under the sun to help me fight it and manage the pain, everything breastfeeding safe that is, so I just have to wait it out and try to rest. My midwife said that, for her, the upside to me being sick right now is that its keeping me from running a marathon until my body is actually ready for it Otherwise, my lady bits are all healed up and lovely (har) and my nips are doing better and its confirmed that the chapping is not due to faulty latching – just how mine roll.

I do hope the majority of my recent readers are female, btw. Sorry for all the powder room talk, fellas.

My laptop is going in and out of power because of either the charger/cord OR the laptop jack. So far we can jiggle it a bit and get it to charge for 5 minutes and then it goes out again. Certainly not a sustainable existence, so we are trying to figure something out. (Seeeeee, THAT was a fella friendly paragraph! I can whip them out from time to time.)

A sweet couple from church brought over a hearty supper for the whole household today, so I stuffed myself on it and I’m going to “bed” early tonight to try to get in a little extra sleep between Verity’s every-2-hour nursing preference.

I know this is all mighty boring to most of you, but oh well. Just seemed like an update from my recent doom-n-gloom conciseness was in order.

Before my laptop goes out again, I bid you farewell…
