Bloggers Block

It’s official – I started this blog only 3 months ago and I already have blogger’s block. It’s not that I don’t have a lot of new things to talk about, it’s just that I don’t feel like fully diving into each topic to write about them. Maybe it’s because I feel like there are too many unrelated things to talk about for just one posting. Maybe I’m just being lazy. Who know’s?!? What I do know- when I started this I vowed to make sure I gave it my all. SO- for now I will briefly mention a few new things going on in our life and when I get out of my funk, I will revisit them and provide the attention they deserve.

1. Ella experienced her first parade over the weekend. I was nervous, but she loved it and was great at collecting candy.
2. Joe, Ella and I participated in our first 5K. It was so much easier and rewarding than I had expected. I just may invest in a running stroller, but don’t quote me on that one.
3. I met with Birth to 3 today to set up Ella’s speech therapy plan. Overall, I am very optimistic that it will make a change in Ella’s speech development, but I am also realistic that it just may make me feel like a better parent because I am trying to do something about it.
4. I scheduled Ella’s first pediatric dentist visit for August. When I called to schedule the appointment the receptionist said they usually like to see kids for the first time 6 months after their first tooth. Considering Ella is 19 + months and she has had teeth since 6 months old, we are a bit behind.
5. We will be meeting with our surgeon again in August to re-evaluate whether or not surgery should be pushed up. Ella still has a hole in her palate due to the tear in the last surgery. At our last appointment (May) it was determined that we could wait, however I think the hole may have some effect on her speech – so we are going back in.
6. I called and confirmed that Ella has missed both her 15 and 18 month physical appointments so I have re-scheduled those since no one felt it was important to mention that to a first-time parent.
7. We are getting professional family pictures taken again this weekend. This time we are going to Don’t Blink Photography. I am really excited, but that means the stress of outfit selection begins again.

  1. you guys did a 5k???? I hate when we don’t talk during the week :/

  2. Although I just entered the blogging world, I understand where you are coming from. I think it has to do with not having enough time (and I know you are really busy too). Just keep at it and writing about the things you want to write about.
