Day 159

As you may have surmised from yesterday's post, I've had a hell of a couple days. What started with some isolated vomiting earlier in the week had turned into persistent nausea, headaches, body aches...the works. I wasn't sure what was causing my current health woes, but luckily the crack, House-esque team at Novant Healthcare was … Continue reading Day 159 →

Day 143

One of Miles's more adorable developments of late has been his discovery of faces. No longer content to just gaze at someone's face, Miles will now reach out and grab the head of anyone who gets close enough -- nose, ears, hair...you name it. And when he seizes that ear or that cheek he starts … Continue reading Day 143 →

Day 139

Miles had the first of what is sure to be two long, exciting days today, as he saw my parents and brother for the second time and met some of his extended family as well (in addition to a few family friends and neighbors). Add in a visit from Jaclyn's side of the family and … Continue reading Day 139 →

Today, Jaclyn and I made our second baby-free excursion of the weekend, ducking out to see Hereditary, the recent release about a mother who experiences a psychotic break because her daughter won't stop making a clicking sound with her tongue (or so I gathered from the trailer). Also, at some point a human catches on … Continue reading Day 119: A Sort-of Review of Hereditary →

Day 118

Today was the first weekend day in what feels like forever that was almost completely free of social obligations and engagements. Given Jaclyn's growing separation anxiety, this couldn't have come at a better time, as it gave both of us a chance to spend some quality time with Miles. Of course, we were both really, … Continue reading Day 118 →

Day 69

While his mother and I were gallivanting around town (both with and without each other), Miles got to spend the day with his grandparents and aunts. I'm honestly not sure who enjoyed it more. Personally, I got to attend Free Comic Book Day and go to the Charlotte Symphony in the evening, I so know … Continue reading Day 69 →
