That's right, it has!
Wow, time has really flow by this month. Ari has his.. 6th? CranioCap appointment tomorrow.
I am not really looking forward to going in this time. Ari had a fever for a couple days last week while we were celebrating Thanksgiving in Branson, MO with Drew's family. On those days, we kept his helmet off to help him stay cool and now I feel like we missed out on some good progress. Of course 2/14 days is not really that big of a deal I guess. But still, I am less excited about this visit.
I know he will need it adjusted a little, because his neck has been getting some chaffing marks on it. I guess that means his head is growing, right?!
Well, off to bed. Still feeling under the weather.
I am currently on vacation in Missouri with some of Drew's side of the family. His parents rented a cabin for all of us to stay in for Thanksgiving week, which is really nice of them!
It's interesting how much "vacation" changes once you have a kid. Basically.. it's not anymore. It's not vacation... it's "getting away from your own house to go to a different house and hang out with different people". Which is still very nice! But not really the vacation I'm used to.
Vacation used to be a time where I could sit around, eat, chat, watch movies, sleep, eat, sit around, chat, watch movies and sleep, sleep, sleep. Alas, no more. Ari's schedule is still the same, even when I'm away from home. He still needs to be fed, washed, unhelmeted, rehelmeted, changed, etc and repeat. Naps are the only "vacation" time I get. At least Drew is helping out here and there with washing Ari and feeding him cereal... that is very nice. = )
Anyways, I'm not really complaining. I'm more.. emoting and reevaluating so that I can grieve, accept and move on to enjoying this new type of "vacation". And I am also slightly low on sleep...
Unfortunately I have schoolwork to do while I'm here. I have an online quiz due in a day and also a homework assignment due right when I get back. So is life. = )
Glad I missed that MN ice storm...
