He threw up everything four times today. I thought he had gotten a bit better after he came with me to our faculty’s new year dinner and he chowed on steamed fish, but he threw it all up again after we came home. Oops. Had to strip sheets off of two king size beds and start drying mattresses with fans. We keep making him rehydrate, but dehydration is a fear since he throws up so much; we’ll take him to the clinic tomorrow. Mina is being no more or less cooperative than can be expected of a soft, pink, newborn potato lump.

Max went to nursery school for the first time today. Mommy doesn’t start work for a couple more weeks, so she’s going to take him every day this week just for a couple hours in the mornings. He starts going every day from next week… This is such a trip. Time flies by so quickly. It sounds like he had a great hour or so with the other kids today singing, clapping, and even falling off a slide and bumping his head. Mommy kept out of sight until it looked like he wanted to go home. When he saw her, he cried. That was enough for the first day. Meanwhile,…

…which I take as an extremely fortuitous sign. …and at last, I have time to blog again, all because of our Baby Bjorn carrier (thanks mom and dad!). I didn’t use it with Max for the first few months partly because he was so small (born 1 month early at 2,400 grams), but today I noticed that the label said it could be used for babies over 3.2 (?) kilos. Mina is 4.2 kilos as of yesterday (born at 3.5 and naturally dropped a bit of weight the first few days).
