So What Wednesdays

I just linked up with Shannon at Life After I Dew to start "So What Wednesdays."  I think this will be good for me.  Let me know what you think!

This week, I'm saying so what if...

  • I want to start pawning some of Ashlyn's stuff onto my Mom to keep at her house so I can get new stuff.  New stuff is cuter!
  • I set a dinner schedule each week that gets ruined by my husband because he works more hours than anyone else in the world.
  • I threaten to secretly put our Black Lab in our neighbor's yard and hope they don't notice.
  • We have NO plans this Memorial day weekend.  We have a kid and everyone forgets about us!
  • I feel like I need something extremely significant to happen in my life right now because I have been nothing but bummed lately.
  • I can't keep my eyes open past 10pm, even on the weekends.
  • Ashlyn turns 6 months in a few weeks.  It's not like she's growing up or anything.
  • The shower almost completely overflowed this morning because there is something wrong with our plumbing.
  • I am ridiculously excited to have off from work Monday and Friday of next week.  (Monday for Memorial Day, Friday for my birthday!)
  • Taking off work for my birthday means that I still have to work because I refuse to take Ashlyn to daycare if I'm off work.  Happy Birthday to me!
  • I'm only one day into my new 'routine' (work, exercise, dinner) and I already don't feel like doing it.

What are you saying so what to this week?

Go link up with Shannon at Life After I Dew!

Cheerios Stands

So when I logged onto my computer this morning, the first article that caught my attention was this one ( Cheerios Stands ) about a new commercial Cheerios has out.  They are getting a ton of negative feedback for this commercial and I'm just not understanding why. So basically, people are upset because this is a white mother, a black father and a biracial child.  What's the big deal? I know that it isn't a common thing to see in a TV commercial but what's the big deal?  I really don't think that biracial couples are uncommone these days so I'm not really understanding why they are getting such negative feedback for this commercial.  I give a ton of props to Cheerios/General Mills for not pulling the ad.  They could do that and that would be easy and would end the negativity but they are not going to do that.  Good for you.  There is no reason why this ad should not be aired. By the way, I think the commercial is cute and funny and I proba...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...
