You & Me doll

Captains Log: 06202011

My baby girls is 11 months old today. I cannot believe a year is quick approaching.

This week I am leaving for a few days to go to Newport, Rhode Island. I know I need some time away from the girls but I am having pre- separation anxiety. lol My baby cries when I leave the room. I hope she is ok for 3.5 days without Mommy.

On a serious note, my 19 month old daughter broke the head off of a You & Me doll, which is an exclusive Toys R Us item, Because this doll babbles and such there were wires exposed. I believe a piece of plastic may have snapped. I have been unable to locate it. Check out the masking tape that she could have eaten and the frayed wires inside. SCARY STUFF!!!  I contacted Toys R Us and they sent the information to their safety department. They were very quick to respond via email and phone.

One Year.......

One year ago today, I was considered disabled, removed from work and placed on bed rest. Reality sunk in laced with the feelings of panic and fear. The thoughts were rushing through my head like the flooded Mississippi heading toward New Orleans.  I was completely overwhelmed by the situation.

Its too early to have Alexa, I was only 24 weeks. Death or lifelong disabilities possible. I have no annual leave or sick time at work: How will we live without a check?  Who is going to help me since I am not suppose to lift Bean?"

 I was reassured that everything works out in the end,
