Got back in late last night from Honduras. Long damn trip, but they always are. Now they are especially long because I have a daughter to come back to. The wife had no major problems when I was gone. We found out that the blood in her stool is not caused by Herschsprungs disease! That is great news. The daughter did very well in the doctors office with her barium enema. Apparently she didn't even really cry that much. She just sucked on Tamara's pinky finger and was fine. Today there was no blood in the daughter's diapers. We are still waiting on the results of the stool culture done at the pediatrician's to see if that will tell us anything. The chances are that we might not ever find out what was causing blood in her stool. At least we know that it is nothing serious.

She still isn't sleeping well. She slept with the wife in the bed all last week. It is going to become harder and harder to get her to sleep in the crib. We just can't stand her hear her cry. She does fine in the baby bjorn carrier. She likes being held close. She is on my chest right now in the baby bjorn carrier sleeping like a baby is supposed to. The wife is taking a nap.

Back to the grind tomorrow.
