It was another busy weekend at the Olson household. We got rid of the old hardware on the vanity, did some dry brushing to give it some texture (only to realize later that repainting it black would have looked amazing... so much so that I may do it in a couple of weeks), and put … Continue reading More Outlines…

Saved by the Outline…
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to write much this week, but it was still a productive week. Hubby and I tackled the side yard and back yard and turned it into a nice little play area for the Boyo. We chopped down some of the bushes, and leveled out the ground using mulch, dirt, and a … Continue reading Saved by the Outline…

A Short Break…
I apologize for not posting for a couple of weeks. The regional center recently bumped up the Boyo's therapy from 4 hours a week to 6. Between that and the speech therapy he receives twice a week through our insurance, every single day has something going on. Free time is a distant memory. I did … Continue reading A Short Break…
Something a Little Different…
We survived Easter. Barely. The dinner itself was totally fine. It's just that touching up the cabinets and changing the hardware turned out to be a much bigger ordeal than either myself or my husband expected it to be. It took up most of the day before Easter, in fact we didn't finish until after the … Continue reading Something a Little Different…
Spring Cleaning…
Easter is this weekend and we'll be spending it with my husband's family this year since we try to alternate. Usually when that side of the family gets together, it's always at my brother-in-law's house. He and his family are lovely, and their house is absolutely beautiful, but he has a tendency to wait until the last … Continue reading Spring Cleaning…
Terribly Terribly Late…
I actually started this post on Tuesday, because on Wednesday Boyo went in for another surgery to correct an undescended testicle. It's a fairly common issue, especially among preemies, and the surgery to fix it is minimally invasive. We had actually tried to get the surgery scheduled at the same time as his ear tubes procedure, but we couldn't schedule the … Continue reading Terribly Terribly Late…
Running a Little Late Again…
It's been a rough week in the Olson household. First, the NICU follow up program at Long Beach Memorial canceled the Boyo's appointment because our insurance changed. They could bill his secondary insurance as his primary, but they claim they can't even though other places totally have. Lots of yelling ensued. This was followed by … Continue reading Running a Little Late Again…
Just a Little Late…
The surgery to put tubes in the Boyo's ears went really well. We can tell it's helped a lot already. He's responding to soft and low sounds, and turns and looks at us when we speak normally or even whisper. He's also babbling more and when he's babbling there's more tone and inflection that are reminiscent … Continue reading Just a Little Late…
The Liebster Award
I was given a Liebster award by a good friend, Jewel E Leonard. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've actually been looking forward to these questions ever since you tagged me in your original post.
