So What Wednesday

So What Wednesday

This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • I announced my pregnancy much sooner than I had intended.  I was dying to let Baby Girl wear her Best Big Sis tshirt! 
  • I am absolutely hating this freezing cold weather we are having.  The only way it should be this cold is if we have snow.  I don't see any snow.
  • While I am looking forward to our mini vacation in a few weeks, I think it's going to be so cold that we stay inside most of the time.  Oh well.  Still much needed time away. 
  • While I think it's adorable, it actually makes me a little sad to see my Baby Girl walking so much.  She's not so little anymore.
  • I may be a little too excited for Smash to start.   
  • I actually watched Parenthood last night!  I think it was the season finale, though, so yea...it only took me that long to get the schedule right.
  • I added like 20 new blogs to my reading list this week.
  • I still get a little angry when people don't respond to comments.  I respond to all of mine and I even go out of my way to try to find the no-reply bloggers email addresses on their blogs!
  • I am so excited to buy gifts for my 5 commentors that I want to rush out and get them all at once!  I have to try to pace myself!  (Read Pay it Forward)
  • We have nothing planned for this weekend.  Nothing.  I can't remember the last time that happened.
  • I entered Baby Girl in another contest.

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 ...
