Fab Fridays

Linking up with Between the Lines for
If you read my blog at all then you know that I love the show The Voice.  The blind auditions, the stealing, the live shows...all very cool.  I think the fact that there are real musicians making the decisions really helps as well. 
 
I missed Monday night's episode because of Hurricane Sandy but was able to watch Tuesday's episode and the encore presentation of Monday's episode last night.  I'm happy to see some of my favorites are still in the running.  My favorite performance of Monday night?  Loren Allred from Team Adam.  This girl is a wedding singer and she has just become A.MAZ.ING.
 
 
 
I think it's ridiculously fabulous that Hurricane Sandy didn't cause any damage to my property (aside from a large tree branch down) or knock my power out at all. My heart does go out to all of the families affected.
 
 
I think Movember is pretty fabulous.  That's mostly because of my new obsession with moustaches.  You have to say it like this, though:  Moostache.  It's the only way.
I think it's fabulous that I get to wear jeans and a hoodie to work today for casual Fridays because it's really friggin cold outside.
 
I thought the CMA awards were pretty fabulous.  The opening bit Brad and Carrie did was pretty awesome but the part about motor boating...priceless.

      Especially since you can cut out the commercials.

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 ...
