So today was a day I tried to get back to what was a normal routine. I am generally wiped out after about 2 pm but today I was able to push through. Claire is taking more and more milk. Instead of eating every 4 hours she is eating about every 2. So her milk intake is almost doubling. She battles gas still but she is putting on weight so I am a happy camper.
We had some friends come up from Houston to visit and my kids have really enjoyed visiting with them. My kids and I seem to go through waves of sadness and times like this help us forget for a moment and enjoy life a bit. I don't know if forget is the right word because we never forget... but we do have a moment where the sadness isn't as intense.
I finally got Claire to sleep tonight. I'm glad she is finally sleeping. Everything is still like a dream.
