DYK- September Days Are Here

Helen Hunt Jackson- September Poem
The goldenrod is yellow,
The corn is turning brown,
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down;
The gentian’s bluest fringes
Are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed
Its hidden silk has spun;
The sedges flaunt their harvest
In every meadow nook,
And asters by the brookside
Make asters in the brook;
From dewy lanes at morning
The grapes’ sweet odors rise;
At noon the roads all flutter
With yellow butterflies–
By all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
With summer’s best of weather
And autumn’s best of cheer.

dyk I though tI was much better last night
dyk but this morning, still wheezing
dyk so I am sitting at my desk at the office, trying to keep composed
dyk let me start with the end: my brother is largely uninjured
dyk and has been exclusively pumping since -- Lexi is about 5 weeks old?
dyk she texted me this morning: pumped 31.5 ounces yesterday!~
dyk I texted back (pun intended) HOLY COW!!!!
dyk people on medical steriods should not get scary news.
dyk and we decided long ago that Abi being Abi wouldn't stop us from pursuing our family as we wanted it to be
dyk but then sometimes I think that it would be nice to leave an "open chair" so to speak, lol so we can take my niece(s) or a friend of the kids -- we could possibly cart 4 around on vacations and such -- haha
dyk like when we took a family friend with us to Dinosaur Valley State Park
dyk but..... we know the flip side
dyk speaking of the flip side... Abi is doing well in school -- the second round of grades that went in brought her reading grade from 57 up to 83!!!
Dyk in fact, Isabelle is the opposite. She loves the boob, but has only had a bottle twice, and it's definitely not her favorite.
Dyk luckily she's old enough for a sippy cup, so it's ok if she never learns to love the bottle.
Dyk I totally understand why you want to stop pumping at one year!
dyk of you know -- 3 years
dyk kidding, kidding
dyk I hope you get better MUCH sooner than that!!!!
dyk and cranky with it
dyk this is the first time she's been cranky associated with teething
dyk we didn't even KNOW she cut 4 molars -- until we tossed her upside down and she was schreeching and laughing and we saw them in her mouth! lol
