Nolan Eason

At 1:03AM on Friday, March 30, 2012 my first child was born - a son. We named him Nolan Eason. 21" long, 5lb 3oz. He was beautiful and perfect in every way, except that he was stillborn. As we searched for answers to his untimely death, we also searched for comfort. This blog was created as a way of working through my sorrow by trying to find something beautiful in the world each day. Hopefully, along the way it will help others to heal as well.

Sluggish Mondays

Another fun filled day on the Homeland sound stages. Early calls on Monday are always the roughest, especially when they are preceded by a late wrap on Friday and a whirl wind trip home to Wilmington. Needless to say, it was very, very difficult to get up this morning. I wasn't the only one dragging this morning though. Even the director was a bit sluggish, blaming the inability to go to sleep early. I mostly spent the day just trying to stay awake. It's that point in my pregnancy where every day in the afternoon I feel a desperate need to sleep which is exasperated by the fact that I am not able to.

Fortunately, we were working with the Brody kids today and they are always entertaining. They kept the day exciting and kept me from falling asleep in my chair. After they left we moved on to yet some more gunshots to finish out our shooting sequence. While they were riveting to watch, they took forever to set up. The down time was killer. Normally, I wouldn't mind having so much time to myself, but all it made me want to do today was curl up somewhere and sleep. At least on the flip side, I should have no problem falling asleep tonight and will hopefully catch up on my sleep.
