Graphic Designer Mommy: now zach has the tummy bug ...

artist — mother — create — love — laugh — pray

This is to be a quiet place for me. A well deserved 10 minutes for a mommy to gain clarity & perspective, perhaps discover how to manage this balancing act of mine? I've also decided this to be my creative voice so you will likely see art (& artists) I admire, recipes, inspirational quotes. Or even a nod to the latest gadget/child must-have? My joys & frustrations with parenthood, work & most anything else that goes on in my oh-so-glamorous life! I'm a stay at home mommy by day. At night I read bedtime stories. When I'm not busy cutting food into small pieces, I design.

now zach has the tummy bug ...

Well folks, we spent the last couple days inside the beach house with our poor little zachary. In spite of our best efforts, he decided he too was going to catch gabrielle's little tummy bug. we just sort of hunkered in and tried to ride it out and keep him comfortable before our trip home. he was looking much better friday and we were encouraged but saturday when we got home he decided he was gonna go full force on us and was not done being sick. he is unable to keep his milks down and blowing through his diapers so fearing dehydration (as he was looking kinda puny) brought him in to the ER again (big sigh) at 10pm Saturday.... long story short: here we sit, in exact room number as before as they admited him for 24 hours to see how he re-hydrates..... once again, we are guests at the hotel legacy salmon creek hospital. did i mention his little IV is in the top of his head ---- my heart it breaking for our little man...and i am one tired mommy. so grateful chad is able to be home with gabrielle again... makes it not so disruptive for her.
