Tonight i get home about 650-700 and she is asleep and Aijuan says she’s sleeping then says she will take a nap too “too tired”;
Later I think I hear her crying downstairs, so I go to check it out.
It wasn’t crying it was Aijuan with Angela watching the clips that [...]

First Night Changes

Tue Sep 29 21:10:26 CDT 2009
Well, tonight we made a little progress, but maybe a step in a big direction.
For I don’t know how long, I have been rocking, singing, humming, bouncing, walking Angela to sleep at night. In the beginning of course when she was a ‘baby’ baby, and up through now, when [...]

Can you hear me now? Yes!

Visit at the UT Speech and Hearing Center went ended up going well this morning.
We had some trouble getting there, though. Angela was throwing up in the car on the way there so we had to turn around, go home attend to everyone changing clothes, cleaning the car seat, etc, then heading back [...]

And then we were 1

Update!!
After only a month….
She keeps us pretty busy.
Well, first and foremost, Angela Katherine Bryan turned one year old on Saturday, June 27, 9:15 am.  We celebrated with some Chinese take out from Asia Market/Cafe, a Finding Nemo birthday cake, (she likes the little fish), and ice cream, the latter of [...]

Ok, back again.  Let’s see what else….

She has just enough hair now that it is enough to brush, make a part.  Looks cute, like in a portrait, but doesn’t last long.  Sometimes she will take the brush and move it around like she is trying [...]

Has been really busy at work and at home.  Wanted to post just some things that are new, in no particular order intended:

Angela started pulling herself up a couple of weeks ago.  At first it was just in her crib.  That was around May 8, [...]

Still Hungry

4/26/08/0132
Man. She got 6oz at 10pm, and got her to sleep pretty easy.  Is normal.  But she woke up crying at 12:30a, and after walking her, rocking, pushing around in the stroller in the entry way, Aijuan says to try more formula.  I had just gotten her settled and didn’t want to rouse her, but [...]

Hungry Little Critter :-D

Her appetite is coming back now.  Got 6oz at 3a, 6@8a, 5@230p. Has gotten several little boxes/jars of bb food, several oz of pedia/water mix, snacky little finger food. Is not snacky in trashy sense btw. Is still grabbing ear(s), waking up at night crying, but is getting better. 

Sick as a Baby

I tell you what, “Sick as a dog” ain’t got nuthin on “Sick as a Baby”.  I’ve never seen anything or anyone so abjectly miserable.  Part maybe not know why or how long or anything, just that you feel lousy, nothing’s right, and no one knows what you want, and they keep doing things to [...]
