Hmm... well, I'm painfully shy about everything, and I almost never leave the house. The not leaving isn't because I'm shy though. It's because I'm a mother to a micro preemie (born at 26 weeks and 5 days) and this is Minnesota's worst RSV season in several years. I never go anywhere for fear that I might bring back germs!

I spend my days catering to Timmy's needs. He'll be 6 months on the 28th (corrected to 2 1/2 months) and we're working hard with he physical therapy.

He was born 9/28/12 and came home from the NICU on 1/5/13. Since then, he's spent that majority of his time back at the hospital in the PICU. He's had RSV, Pneumonia, Subglottic Stenosis, and severe complications with his Chronic Lung Disease.
Because he's spent so much time in the hospital he has lost all of his head control, so we are diligently working towards getting it back. So far it isn't going great. Timmy has developed a new found hatred for tummy time and being held upright against my chest... he wants to be on his back so he can roll to his sides over and over!

I've quickly learned that being a stay at home mom is not the right job for me. I love him to death, but I absolutely hate being home 24/7. I like to work, and I really miss my job. We're trying to figure out a way for me to go back to work. We could really use the money on top of me just not wanting to stay home.

I guess that about wraps up everything current... I'm not very exciting! If there's something else that you want to know then just ask! I'm not nearly as shy when I don't have to make eye contact!
