Mastocytosis (Urticaria Pigmentosa)

Probably around January we noticed 3 brown spots on Lincoln. We thought he was getting moles or something. They popped up around the same time. The brown lesion is above his nipple At his 6-month well check (3/19/12), I asked the pediatrician to look at them. She said that moles don't pop up like that so we should have a dermatologist take a look at them. We scheduled an appointment with Joy Chastain's office (3/23/12), which Joe and I have been to for our skin. There are three ladies that work there and the one we were there to see, went to get another lady to look at them too. They were spouting off a lot of medical terms with their predictions. Ultimately, they recommended a biopsy so we could see what they were. Joe held Lincoln tight, which he didn't like. They injected numbing medicines and then they cut a piece of the one on his back. It was over quickly. I didn't like my babies' smooth skin being cut and scarred. We were told to keep it moist with Vasel...

Adjustment Disorder "Stress Response Syndrome"

My frustration with watching the kids at home 12+ hours a day and being unemployed since June had taken a toll on me. The kids were going to school part and full-time over the summer and up until October 31. For the last month and a half, I had both kids home all day. My temper, patience, and boredom were reaching an all time high. Having a second was like having 10 to us. When people talk about wanting kids or a second, inside I yell, "Don't do it!"   I know it is just a matter of perspective and capability. For Joe and I, we struggle regularly to survive and work cohesively. Everyday is a battle. What to eat, which bathroom to potty in, stool or no stool, lights and fan, door open or closed, what shirt/pants/socks/shoes, what cup to drink out of, brush teeth or not, which paste/brush to use, what snacks/lunch/dinner to eat, which car seat to sit in, water or milk to drink, which movie to watch, bath or not, bubbles or not, which toys to play/share, which route to...

Clutched

This is my second experience with Noro. I signed up for a Knitting 102 class a while back. I arrived and I was told by the instructor that I needed to pick out a Noro Silk Garden from the shelf for my beanie. I have been drawn to a couple other types of Noro for a while, but didn't really have the need to buy it. I so badly wanted to need it for a project. Finally, I decided to buy a couple skeins [pronounced skeyn] of Noro Kureyon shade #226. I decided to make a clutch for my dear friend, Beth. I'm using a pattern I found on jaykayknits . This will be my first purse and I am excited to learn something new while making a gift for someone.
