Improvement
Aug. 5th, 2004 08:11 pmThings are going pretty well right now.
Now that the chiropractor has helped me, I'm doing more stuff with Jamie in the sling again. It's going to take redeveloping muscles, and he has limited patience for it, but it helps. And it's nice baby cuddling time, when I'm not so much trying to keep him from leaping out of my arms. I'd forgotten how much calmer that is.
Maggie, who was being a bit 2-ish earlier, just fell asleep in her high chair. Oh GOOD. That should help. I'd take her upstairs, except Jamie is currently asleep in the sling, and I just don't think I'd manage it. She had speech therapy today. I told them she'd started saying "okay" and "yeah" instead of just her usual "DA" for yes. Which is good, although "DA" was pretty cute. They then found out she can also say "sure!" They were playing with a toy barn and animals, and handed one to her and told her it was the Daddy. (horse, or cow, I forget which) She then pulled out the one that had earlier been referred to as the Mommy, had them kiss, set them down together, and then said "happy". Now that was cute.
I'm making an experimental dinner tonight. Hope it works well. Thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
joyeuse13 for the inspiration, although my version is rather less healthy than hers, so all blame to me. Baked chicken parmesan - boneless chicken breasts, and I made up a breading out of breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese and some garlic powder, beat a couple of eggs, dipped the chicken in the egg, did the breading, and set them to bake at 375. I'll give it about 40 minutes or so. Then I've got some spaghetti sauce, roasted garlic parmesan (no, I do NOT make my own from scratch. Prego is my friend.) heating. I'm going to dollop some of it on the chicken, then cover it with mozarella cheese and put it back in for a few, then serve the rest of the sauce over spaghetti. I think it should be good. I suppose in an ideal world I'd have a salad to go with it, but hey, the kids are alive and healthy, I've done some laundry today and vacuumed the living room, and there's going to be a non-frozen hot dinner, so I figure I get the gold star without the salad.
Two days worth of new pictures went up today over at http://www.kelthaven.org/baby, and yes, the site is back up and everything's fine, so yay. Go look.
selenite just got home from work and picking up Catherine (the van) from getting her front brakes repaired. Aw, and he brougt me flowers. He's taking sleepy Maggie upstairs.
