No, this isn't me reciting Usher lyrics. I'm overwhelmed a lot this year. I started this post in July. I've been MIA from this blog and truth is I'm tired, over stimulated, just plain over everything. Trying to focus on daily tasks is just so fucking draining and some days I just zone out of …
Happy 1st Birthday Xavier!!
I know you're like "Whet?! His birthday was in September!" This is a fact. Today is his adjusted (developmental) birthday and around these parts we celebrate every and anything related to Xavier.

Phase II
May 12th 2021 was the last time I had decent sleep. This had been quite the adjustment, but having Xavier home has been the best thing ever. After our first week home, Leonard went back to work (downstairs), which meant that I had the baby most of the time. He often takes breaks to be …

Where has the time gone?
Do you know what today is? It's our Anniversary!! Man, with the year we've had, it feels like it's been so much longer.
