Adventures in Life: April 2013
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 11, 2013. Just a normal day. So, here's how the day's been thus far. Grace ingests approximately half of a TUMS tablet (and scatters half of the rest of the bottle of TUMS all over the floor). I call poison control to hear that she’ll be fine and get her to drink 4 oz. of water. Right. She doesn’t want more than two swallows. Maybe they meant 4 oz. over the next three hours. Traffic is horrendous on the way home. So, of course, Grace falls asleep for about twenty minutes and awakens w...

Adventures in Life: So, Grace is one! (2 weeks ago!)
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2013/03/so-grace-is-one-like-2-weeks-ago.html
Wednesday, March 20, 2013. So, Grace is one! Recently two friends have given birth to their first children. Looking at their pictures stirs up conflicting emotions. I look at Grace and realize how big she’s gotten in the past year. All the growing happens so stealthily; living life with her means I barely notice as she fills out and gets taller. So then, I feel empathy for those new moms who are living in the never-ending timeless days that stretch on and on. “Is it daytime or nighttime? I try to remind ...

Adventures in Life: February 2013
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 01, 2013. Sometimes I read other people's blogs and think, "When do those moms with small children ever have time to watch TV? I watch exactly three shows, but never, EVER in real time, and it's honestly been about three or four weeks since I've been caught up on two of those three shows. The one show I keep up with is Downton Abbey. (As in, sometime during the week I find time to watch the most recent episode in multiple parts, on the computer, usually while folding laundry.). In fact, ...

Adventures in Life: September 2012
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 26, 2012. When I see Grace sitting on her blanket playing, or up in her high chair eating baby food, or taking up so much more space on my lap than she did a couple months ago, I want to freeze every moment and remember it forever. Our little girl is growing up so fast. Her own little personality is developing. Links to this post. Thursday, September 20, 2012. Don't blink or you'll miss it! Tis the season for baking. Must be, because I'm not usually overly excited when I read bak...

Adventures in Life: January 2013
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 21, 2013. Pointing, Reaching, Stretching. A couple days ago I thought I noticed Grace pointing with her little pointer finger. I confirmed this morning that she has learned how to point to things she wants (this morning it was yogurt). I also need to reorganize the other bookcases since they're a mess of piled up, randomly stacked books that have migrated up to higher and higher shelves as Grace's reach extends. Also, is it really OK to get as little done as I am currently getting done?

Adventures in Life: April 2012
http://erinandjohn.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 17, 2012. A conversation that took place a little after 7 am one morning as I’m feeding Grace (important note: last week our house got struck by lightning which messed up and otherwise fried all manner of electrical and battery-operated items in our home):. John: I called the electrician and they’re coming out today. Me: So, I need to get dressed. Me: So……I need to get dressed. Links to this post. Monday, April 16, 2012. Do I eat or get dressed? Do I use the bathroom or take my vitamins?
