Sorting Socks

While we are all trying to get back into the swing of things at home, there are some special challenges that come from being away from home for so long. Today I was trying to catch up on some of the laundry, and realized as I was sorting socks that I needed to start three piles of little girl socks rather than just two -- one for Ashlyn, one for Lynnea, and one for socks that don't fit either one of them any more; unfortunately, there were far more socks in the "don't fit anyone" pile than anywhere else. I found a similar problem when I was looking through Lynnea's dresser for something for her to wear today -- none of the clothes that she was wearing three months ago before we went into the hospital fit her any more. So, on my very long list of things to do sometime very soon is to go through and find clothes that fit both girls and take the too small stuff out of their dressers. Well, at least I won't get bored any time soon.

Lynnea had an OK day overall. She was running a fever again (which has become kind of her norm, so we don't get overly concerned about it), and was showing some signs of withdrawal, mostly grumpiness off and on throughout the day. I took her and Ashlyn outside to play in the backyard for a little while this afternoon and Lynnea really enjoyed swinging in her swing. It was nice to have that time with both of the girls.
