Nursing Isn’t Just Cool!

80s Music Quiz
Heehee. I did so badly on this - 43.85%. But I got the 4 point question right. Basically, I suck at music trivia, but once in a while, I can yank something out of thin air.

What Happened?
What happened to my good sleeper, Noah?
I blame the thrill of rolling over. Although Noah can turn over both from back to tummy and tummy to back, he’s only made it from tummy to back once twice (it also happened yesterday at school) so far. But back to tummy? That’s some exciting stuff! Worth waking […]
