Nickname

So one of my co-workers calls me Momma Grizzly or the Grizz.  He calls my Baby Girl Baby Grizz.  I think it's kind of funny that he refers to me as a Grizzly so I went and did some research on Grizzly bears. 

Grizzly bears normally avoid contact with people - This is very true of me.  I avoid contact with people at all costs.  There are very few people I actually enjoy being around and I like it that way.

Grizzlies are considered by some experts to be more aggressive than black bears when defending themselves and their offspring - Totally agree to this as well.  Don't F* with me or my kid.  It's pretty simple.

When a black bear sees a grizzly coming, it either turns tail and runs or climbs a tree - Pretty sure I have seen people turn and run away from me.  Never seen anyone climb a tree, though.  I'll have to work on that one.

Grizzly bears are cute and they look adorable with their little cubs.  I mean, how is this not cute?!


I think it's a pretty good nickname my co-worker has chosen for me.  I was actually thinking of changing my blog title to some Grizzly related.  The Grizz.  Momma Grizzly.  The Musings of a Momma Bear.  Something clever.

Hey, I'm no good at the design stuff.


What do you think?

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,...

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

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 ...
