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.

Signs

I had good intentions on going to Zumba this morning at the Y and then I woke up and was having some pain in my lower back and decided that was not the best option. It's a good thing I only have a little over one more week (hopefully) to go because I am finding it harder and harder to get to Zumba class and easier and easier to gain weight. So I spent the morning finishing up my baby signs. One for when I was breast feeding and one for the front door to let guests know if the baby was sleeping or awake so they wouldn't just ring the bell and cause the dog to bark her head off and wake the baby. At least in theory that's what the signs are for. We will see if they actually help our cause any or not.

It wasn't until it was almost time to go to ukulele class that I got up and showered and put on some clothes other than my PJs. I had almost forgotten it was Thursday today and would have totally missed my ukulele class if it wasn't for Marshall asking me what time my doctor's appointment was tomorrow. Knowing my appointments are always on Friday, I then realized it was indeed Thursday. At class tonight we learned two more songs - Shady Grove and He's Got the Whole World. We also learned three more chords, one of which is really challenging to play - B flat. It is still a lot of fun to go to class and I'm hoping to at least get to where I can play a few songs on the ukulele and they sound pretty decent.
