Zach is still not feeling well. We have bouts Uncontrollable crying and


it is absolutely heartbreaking. We manage to do a little tummy time today, and he's getting better at that. However, he doesn't like it very much.

shopping

2013

Sunday, February 17

Today we went shopping for more stuff that we needed for the room. We went to Babies R Us and Target. It can be a very overwhelming experience. I think for now we have enough but then something always comes up that makes me think we should have gotten this or should have gotten that. I am hoping that we have enough clothes and linens for the time being. I am washing the last of them now. Next step is to get the room ready :-)

Trying to blog and use Facebook

I downloaded an app that should let me blog and post to Facebook at the same time. I'm trying it out right now to see if it works.

Heading out to Alaska

We are leaving Seattle on our first cruise.

You had a bady day

Well today was a harder day. I guess I am at that stage where I am very sensative to things. Even a stupid song about nothing related to me just makes me cry. I mean crying to a song about a woman leaving her husband? come on! But it is what it is and I have to ride it out and experience the emotions and not stuff them down inside. Some days are harder then others and it isn't all just focused on my grandpa's passing although that is a big part of it. Lots of other things that seem to have made me more sensative and aware I guess. Tomorrow is another day as they say.

So long

So long it has been since I have written. I went from a happy and exciting time in my life to a sad and trying time now. In the span of the 6 months almost things have changed. It is hard to form everything into words because there is so much and my thoughts and feelings are mixed on all of them.

My grandfather has passed. He left us on November 1st. It has almost been a month and it seems like yesterday. I always dread the call that I would received. Whenever the phone would ring and the caregivers name would come up on caller ID, my heart would stop. This time no relief was possible as the news I fear had finally happened. I was knowing that it would come and I feel I was more prepared for it then when my grandmother died. With that said, I guess you can only be prepared so much. The first thing I thought of was that I hadn't seen him in 3 weeks. I had planned on seeing him the previous weekend but I got sick and I didn't want to get close to anyone at the group home. I felt like I had abandoned him.

I will have to cut this short. It is late and I need to go to bed. I am tired and a bit sad with thinking about this so rest is in order I presume. I will try harder to get on here and write more to all of my fans (har har har).
