Since it is Michael’s FIRST, I wanted to be the first one to say it ;-). His abilities as Marshall’s dad are amazing (and sometimes amusing…my goodness how he makes Marshall laugh.) All four of the wild boys (and myself) are lucky to have Michael in our lives. And on a broader realm, all of […]
“For a little guy he is going through a lot of big.” Tristen
Last night I noticed three of the four wild boys have a rash. And one ginger boy has been very tired and very grumpy this week. A part of me thought (ok hopedlikeheck) it was just the heat. It wasn’t. This morning I made arrangements for the big wild boys to be evaluated by the […]
When Harvard’s best says this, a woman like me has no choice but to listen. And share the news: Nurse Practitioner K ended our call last night with those parting words. Plus, look at Marshall’s face 🙂 Sooooo the good news is there is no bad news to report. After our hometown cardiologist appt yesterday, […]
The big wild boys had a wrestling tournament today. Though they didn’t win, they learned valuable lessons which will make their next wins so much more appreciated. Plus they still put their best on the mat and brought home trophies :-). There was so much skill and incredible intensity on those mats today. And even […]
Hey world, I could have prevented what Marshall is going through. I said it. And I won’t ever forget it. Dr Infectious Disease stopped by to confirm it. He lectured me on the importance if immunizations as I was nursing my sick son. If I had known… Yes that moment has landed on the list […]
It sounds like Marshall will be here a little while. His oxygen levels are all over. In fact, they are bouncing like a just dropped bag of ping pong balls. He has a sporadic, nasty, nasty cough. Right now he is ok with an oxygen boost of “free air.” And he is still fever free. […]
That our oldest wild boy was Marshall’s size…sigh. Now to see what a great, smart and totally fantastic biggest brother he is makes us so very proud of him!
I’m starting today with a laugh. As a mom of four wild boys, you learn to pick your battles. If it’s broken, bleeding, or on fire, you know it’s fight time. You also learn when to worry and when to not worry. And you learn to sleep when you can. Wherever you can. However you […]
8 bottles of milk 7 doses of medicine 6 poopy diapers 5 pumps of boobies 4 beautiful boys 3 supportive grandmas 2 exhausted parents 1 insanely busy life… That, my friend, is a day.
