Friday's Letters

 
Dear Baby Girl, warmer weather means really cute dresses and you have a ton of them.  I know how clumsy you are so let's just try not to fall too much outside.  I'm not looking forward to your first real boo boo.

Dear Baby #2, I was actually able to take a video of your kicks yesterday.  You were jumping around in there like a crazy man!  Let's try to tone down the appetite.  I feel like a cow!  Only a few more months until we meet.

Dear Grey's, you did not disappoint!  I love how you always give us great endings and tell us what's going on but still leave some cliff hangers.  I am a little disappointed by the name you chose for the Grey/Shepherd baby, though.  I was totally expecting something honoring Mark but whatever.

Dear Origami Owl, so it took you three weeks to ship my necklace and then something is back ordered and you don't even have the courtesy to let me know?  I would really like to have one of these necklaces for myself but I'm not sure it's worth the trouble?  Any Origami Owl sellers our there who can get this stuff to me faster?

Dear American Idol, I didn't watch you this year but from the one or two episodes I did watch, I'd say America got it right.  Candice seems like the right choice although I did prefer Angie's Titanium performance with Adam Lambert over Candice's performance with Jennifer Hudson.

Dear Me, stop being so dam clumsy!  Every time you get a new maternity shirt, you spill something on it and stain it!  You can't afford to keep buying things! 

Dear friends, I apologize in advance for my husband's lack of planning and the short notice invitations you will be receiving next week.  I guess there is going to be a birthday party after all.

Dear husband, this whole going to Chicago for work the weekend before our son is supposed to be born is so not cool.  You said the last weekend in August which just happesn to be his due date!  Requesting that he be born two weeks early so you can go isn't going to work either!

Dear readers, Have a good weekend!

    Yes, he can not go to Chicago. :o) Erin drove his mom cross country to move and it ended up being just 2 weeks before Mackenzie was born. These men don't think. :)

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 ...

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...
