I'm letting this one go, since I have updates and more important stuff to blog about...next one will have pictures, I swear.
I've been such a blogging slacker lately. It's getting towards the end of the semester and it seems like I have many tests and papers due every week. That's the downside of taking once-a-week classes. They move so fast. Registration opens next week for Spring semester. I'm taking Legal Writing, Family Law, and Contracts. I am taking Indians of North America, an anthropology class, as an elective. I am doing well in all of my classes, currently I have all A's, but some of these classes have so few grading opportunities that if I do poorly on one test, it can knock me down to a B easily.
I went to Sage Woman Herbs here in town and Riley is now on a calming infusion a few times a day. Chamomile, lavender, and catnip (I though that one was funny!). Catnip is also indicated for prevention and treatment of fevers, of which she gets a lot, so we'll see if this helps at all. I just can't go into the developmental pediatricians office in January knowing that I haven't tried absolutely everything. I also have recommendations for naturopaths and chiropractors who can do testing for food sensitivities. The book I'm using by the way is Naturally Healthy Babies and Children: A Commonsense Guide to Herbal Remedies, Nutrition, and Health by Aviva Romm. Phenomenal book. It was lent to me, but I think perhaps I'll buy it.
On Thursday I'm going to a seminar "Informed Decision: The Other Side of Childhood Vaccinations." I need to figure out what I'm going to do with Avery; selective vaccination or delayed vaccination or what. Riley isn't due for more shots until she's five, so I have time to think about her. It's right across from my school at the public library. I'll go to an hour of class and skip out to go to the seminar. Don't tell anyone!
I finally found a doll that I'm going to get Avery for her birthday. It's the Tidoo Doll from Corolle. I'm not buying it from that website, because the price and shipping suck, and they have it in a local store here. It's meant to go in the bath, so it's fast-drying and Avery can wash it all she wants. It's smaller than I originally intended, but we can't win them all. It's also phthalate-free, so it won't kill her. Which is s plus, I guess. I'll probably just get her the doll and a couple extra outfits for it. I think that'll be enough. They're a little pricey, so that'll have to do.

Amy,
I can get her some clothes or something else to go with her new baby. Let me know.
Love,
Mom
