What a month! I’ve been dealing with pregnancy symptoms from H*ll, but am starting to get back to normal again. The first week this month Ronin and I went with friends to Grand Haven, Michigan for almost a week. Nico was supposed to come, but he could not get off of work.

Right before I left, I begged my mother to come to Detroit and help me out. She said she would! We got back from Grand Haven on a Friday and picked Mom up from the airport Tuesday evening. She’s been a big help. She’s taken over all the night weaning duties. She’s been doing all the wake-ups. Let me tell you, he has not been happy about it.

Well, we also promised Dad a trip to Kentucky, but with the flood in his basement things got all rearranged. Anyway, Mom went on the trip with me. Nico stayed home to work. What a whirlwind trip that was. We left Wednesday and got back yesterday evening.

Six hours in the car with a toddler... better than I expected. He LOVED the swimming pool. I couldn't keep him out of it. Too bad he's got my uber fair complexion. He and I both had on SPF 50!

Night weaning is going good. Last night he slept from 9:00 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. in his own bed with no wake-ups. Two nights ago he also slept through the night, but not as many hours. Please pray this is our new trend. Also, I’m only nursing him 2-3 times per day. My goal is to completely wean him before his 2nd birthday. But I can live with 2-3 times per day for a while.

Tomorrow (Monday) I have another Dr’s appointment and a diabetes screening. Hopefully, I can skip the sugar-free route this time around… but I’m not holding my breath.

Tuesday morning Mom leaves to go back to Phoenix and that afternoon I leave to go to Kansas City. I’m going to need a break from travelling soon.

Pictures soon!
