Mommy report: Sniffling to the city

We are headed to St. Louis this morning. Planning to watch the opening Bears game with the whole Bears-cheering clan. I'm dealing with the fact that there's not really any turning back now on the whole G-tube thing, but I have one further thing to deal with.

I'm sick.

This makes me crazy to get this way right when I need to be at my best. I've been dealing with a cold or something for a couple days now, sniffling like crazy, going through boxes of Kleenex, etc. I feel ok generally, just pretty tired, so I need this to go away completely!! I don't want to have to stay away from Braska's room. That would make me crazy not to be right there as she's getting out of surgery. My husband is able to go with us, so that's a huge help, but I want to kick this thing today!

I appreciate your prayers for quick passing of this congestion. I just can't believe the timing!

We'll update as often as possible tomorrow. Go Bears!

  1. I'm sorry you are congested - why do things like that occur when you least need them! I'm praying for a quick recover, peace for you, and a fast and easy procedure for Braska. I'm glad dh can be with you!

  4. Dear Braska's mommy,
    Use Braska's saltwater. It will help, whether cold or allergies.
    1 cup water
    1+1/2 tsp sea salt
    1/4 tsp baking soda

    Love,
    Braska's Grammy

Mommy report: Chatty girl

Braska's been just loving her words lately. She's still signing some, mostly when we're in public or around strangers, but she's adding more words all the time. Many of her words are just attempts at the actual word, but that's where we all start, right?!? We're not saying that she'll be giving speeches next month, but we are very proud that she's become such a mimic and that she is loving using so many sounds. We practice often, just running through her words, signs, and tricks. She especially loves to chime in with videos of herself, so I've been working on compiling all her favorites for her to work with. As I was editing this, she was sitting here saying the words over and over. So funny to hear her talking to herself on the screen and loving it. So here's a peek at some clips from our practice session tonight. Some words are more obvious than others. They are all great attempts, though, and we'll celebrate that! Make an on-line

Nebraska meets Indiana

Braska's reaction to meeting the very kind Rory Feek and his beautiful daughter Indy.  I missed the part where Braska said Indy was sooooooooooo cute!  :) Our dream would be a photo showing the two most beautiful "states" together, right?!?  :)
