Sydney's Knee - what's wrong baby

It seems that our precious little furry girl has some issues with her knees. She has been limping quite a bit this morning and Jim asked me to take her to the vet. So I did. She seems to be having trouble in both knees and needs to be evaluated for a more serious problem. I decided to take the more conservative route and just get some anti-inflammatory for her, but suspect we’ll be back there for more testing soon.

Sleep all night

Tuesday was a good day. Reagan slept most the night and woke up quite happy. We played in the morning and both took a mid-morning nap. I just needed to catch up on sleep. (I can't wait until her sleeping isn't such a big deal.) After that we ate and got ready to go get Jordan.

Family walk

We took a walk today with the dogs. Jim took them and I took care of Reagan in the stroller. I have figured out she loves to be outside. Everyone keeps telling me that, but she really does enjoy the scenery it seems. She also enjoys breezes on her face and body. I noticed every time we’d get a good breeze, she smile and roll her feet. While we were hanging out at the pond, watching the dogs swim, Sydney came up and walked around Reagan’s stroller and tipped it over. I freaked… but she was totally fine – thanks to the five-point harness system in that thing.

NKU

I went to pick up Jordan from her Musical Theatre camp today and boy has NKU changed. It is humongous!! The campus has really turned out to be quite pretty and it now seems more like a “real” university. When I went to school there, it was known as the concrete jungle among other things. Now, there are a lot of “green” areas – with water and walkways. They have really done a nice job with the school.

Sleep again

Reagan did much better last night. She didn’t sleep through the night, but as soon as she started whimpering, I was in her room and was able to get the pacifier back in her mouth. She never really woke up 100%. I slept both in her room on the floor and on the couch upstairs. It is just much easier to get to her at night – especially when I’m exhausted to begin with. She did really well.

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father’s Day Jim and Dad.
We had a nice time with Grammy and Grampy. We celebrated Father’s Day over brunch and hung out opening gifts afterwards. All of us were pretty tired. Jim took a nap. After my parents left, I slept on the floor of Reagan’s room. And apparently, G&G went home to sleep too. Guess it was just one of those days.

Up all night

While I do think Reagan is much happier sleeping unswaddled, I think she is having to relearn how to sleep. She no longer has something keeping her hands restrained. Last night she was up three different times which really wore on me. She seemed to go back down fairly easily, but ate each time.
