Bigger Baby Steps!!!
Grace did a few things today that made me a very happy daddy.
First, we made it for 15 minutes at the gym babysitting room. This, even though there was a screaming child inside. I just kept praying he wouldn't set her off, and she did great. I was actually in the lobby on the couch next to the mother of the screaming child. She's going through the same thing I'm going through - both our children are having separating anxiety, only I'm several weeks into the process and she's just starting. I told her all about my ordeal and she told me how her kid cries and bangs his head against things when she leaves the room. I said, "Hey, at least he doesn't make himself throw up." I think I'm almost ready to actually go to the gym in my gym clothes and attempt to get on an elliptical machine again.
Second, Grace ate an entire 4oz jar of baby food in 2 sitting! This is huge - even bigger than the gym thing. We actually had to open a 2nd jar in the same day. I'm really beginning to see some light at the end of the tunnel..., finally! I'm sure we're still years away from getting the g-tube out, but at least - in my head - I know she'll eventually get there.

WTG....
On the gym and the baby food.
My big one uses to make herself throw up whenever she got upset too. That can be quite unnerving. She seems to be over it now. Of course, by saying that, the minute I leave school tomorrow she'll go Linda Blair on the teacher.
On another note.....
strip club/brothel/crack houses can be alot of fun. You should consider checking out the convention. I hear its kinda like downtown New Haven. And from what I've seen of the darker corners of New Haven (thanks to my wife being the only one who knew the way to her mother's house and falling sound asleep on our first trip there) I can't imagine it'd be a far cry from it.
