Friday's Letters

Linking up with The Sweet Season for Friday's Letters


Dear Friday's Letters, I completely missed you last week because I was too busy doting on my Baby Girl after her ear surgery.  Sorry!

Dear Baby Girl, once again, you are sick.  This time you have some pretty high fevers.  You get one more day and they we are off to the doctor.  I really hope that some day you will be healthy! 

Dear Baby #2, I think you're becoming my favorite.  No weight gain yet.  It's too good to be true!  Only a few more weeks until we find out if you are pink or blue!

Dear cold, go away!  I'm sick of being sick too!

Dear daycare, you've decided to close today because there are too many sick kids and staff members.  While I can appreciate the fact that you want to disinfect the entire building from top to bottom, I am irritated by the fact that you only let me know about it a day in advance and I had to scramble to find a babysitter!

Dear Earl & Deb, thanks for babysitting!

Dear Winter, I'm over you.  I was really hoping for one good snow storm before you left but it doesn't look like that's going to happen so just leave.  Go away and let the warmer weather move in.

Dear Beamer, I love you and you have been a great little SUV but I'm not sure you're big enough for two babies.  I don't think we can fit two car seats in your back comfortably.  I think we are going to have to think about trading you in for something bigger. 

Dear readers, don't forget to vote!! Will Baby #2 be a boy or a girl?  Between the pole on the blog and my Facebook friends, we are at 50/50 right now!

Dear Baby Bump, you're getting cuter by the day! 




Have a great weekend!

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 ...

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 ...
