Our truck, the one that was stolen right of our driveway a couple weeks ago, has been located in northern Alberta.\u00c2\u00a0 Apparently it has not been damaged but we’re waiting for the official report.\u00c2\u00a0 I was kind of hoping it would be lost forever and the insurance company would have to buy us out but since we got such a good deal on what we originally paid for the truck, we’d end up cashing in and making a few extra thousand dollars.\u00c2\u00a0 For me to go shopping with.\u00c2\u00a0 Owell, it will be nice to have our truck back.<\/p>\n

Some of you might remember my talking about a homeopathic teething remedy called Camilia that I used when Avelyn was pushing through her chompers.\u00c2\u00a0 Well, the same makers of Camilia make a homeopathic formula for colic.\u00c2\u00a0 While I was pregnant, fearing that our next baby was going to be a screamer, I bought some of the remedy, called Cocyntal<\/a>, hoping I wouldn’t really have to use it.\u00c2\u00a0 Jolie has been a fantasically content baby, but in the past week she’s had a fussy period in the later evenings (right after I get Avelyn to bed and am ready to relax, of course).\u00c2\u00a0 I gave her some of the Cocyntal since she had been wailing for longer than my ears could handle and it worked within seconds<\/em>.\u00c2\u00a0 No exaggeration.\u00c2\u00a0 Magic.<\/p>\n

I haven’t been taking enough pictures.\u00c2\u00a0 I have pledged to myself that I will not be one of those parents who has 3 gazillion photos of the first child and then barely any of the second.\u00c2\u00a0 I have already started Jolie’s scrapbook (well, if pasting in one photo and using some pre-cut letters to write her name on some pretty paper counts as starting) and hope to keep it somewhat up to date.\u00c2\u00a0 Time will tell.<\/p>\n

Tonight I am going out with a friend, no babies in tow!\u00c2\u00a0 My first break for longer than an hour since Jolie was born.\u00c2\u00a0 Booyah!<\/p>\n

Here are the things I could not live without these days:\u00c2\u00a0 a Baby Bjorn (active model, with extra back support), tight, tight swaddling (Jolie sleeps so well when she’s bound up like a mummy), Halloween treats (I need the extra calories, OK?), my computer (I know I have been rarely posting, but I have been reading when time permits…helps me feel connected), my trusty hubby (he’s been Mr. Mom and I couldn’t do it without him), and the unwavering hope that Jolie will someday sleep through the night.\u00c2\u00a0 Someday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
