Babies, Babies, Babies!!

I love blogging.  My favorite part of blogging is reading the blogs of people who live all over the world and getting to know these people through their blogs.  I love having this kind of connection with people without actually having a connection to these people. 

Most of the blogs I follow are about Moms with kids or first time Moms or Moms to be.  I love it!  I love all things baby!  And I love hearing birth stories.  I think it's because newborn photos and baby photos always accompany a birth story.

Lately, I have been reading A LOT of birth stories!!  It seems like everyone is having babies right now!  And it also seems that there will be a whole lot more in the upcoming months and I can't wait!!  Even though I don't know any of you personally, it puts a HUGE smile on my face every time I read a birth story and see your pictures. 

And it makes me want another baby so badly.  I know my Baby Girl is still a baby.  But I also know that the time is flying by and I am already missing her 7 months ago, when she first looked up at me with those big blue eyes.  I am already missing her 5 months ago when she first started cooing.  I am already missing her 3 months ago and how she was just discovering her hands.  And I am already missing her 1 month ago when she first started saying Dada.

So much changes so quickly.  As much as I love every single little thing about this little Baby Girl, I want another one.  I want another first look, another first coo, another first Mama.  And all you baby havers are giving me the baby fever badly! 

I've got tons more firsts to have with my Baby Girl so for now I will be focusing on that.  I will keep reading all of your baby stories with a big smile on my face and I will keep waiting for the day when I can share my second or third baby story with all of you.  Until then...I will just have to enjoy my own baby story every day!

    I too love reading blogs from everyone, I haven't read many birth stories, but I do have a few blog friends that are expecting!! I feel a sense of a connection with my blog friends that I don't feel with my friends who don't blog

      Thank you so much! Yea it's strange 'getting to know' people via blogs but I always feel a better connection. I have even had random people email me with questions and advice. I love it!

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 ...

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...

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 ...
