Why I’m Not Around

Thursday, February 10th, 2005

Taking care of a super active toddler is quite challenging, especially when he’s suppose to eat 5 (that’s right, five) meals a day, drink 3-4 times of milk, plus juice, water, and whatever other snacks that might interest him. I know, that’s a lot of food.

He’s always been in the upper 90 percentile for both height and weight but showed a drop in weight at the last well visit. The pediatrician thinks that it is best to keep him at this growth curve for at least the next 6 months.

Nap time is such a challenging workout for both of us. He refuses to nap, and I want him to nap so I can have a few moments to myself in the day. Also, he needs the sleep. A sleep deprived toddler is a child with super big red horns.

It’s almost easier to work a full time job outside of the home.

Hopefully we will get some routine set up real soon and it will be easier. But, we’ll be going out of town in another 10 days, for 10 days. So I’m kinda of inbetween - can’t really put a hardset routine yet because it will probably get reset due to the traveling - but I can’t really have these crazy days where we struggle 3 hours before he takes a nap either.

No. I’m not complaining having a child that I need to look after. Not at all. I’m merely stating why I have not been keeping up with you all as much as I’d like.
