Friday's Letters





Dear Baby Girl, I know there have been a lot of changes lately but I really think you're ready for potty training. You like the fact that you get M&Ms whenever you go so that's a start. We are stocked with pulls ups and ready to go so let's rock this!

Dear Little Man, while your sleeping still isn't where I'd like it to be, it is getting better. You are still waking up every 2-3 hours to eat but you are at least going right back to sleep afterwards now. That makes it a little easier on Mommy. Now let's work on some 4-5 hour stretches.

Dear Miley, while I actually like your song Wrecking Ball, the video is stupid and makes absolutely no sense. I get the actual wrecking ball but swinging naked on it? 

Dear sore throat, please go away. I really don't want a cold and I really don't want to get my kids sick because that would just suck.

Dear Grey's, you have been awesome so far. I can wait to see more.

Dear husband, yes I'm going to fight you on the mini van. I don't want one. Until you prove to me that something like an Acadia won't work with three kids, I'm not changing my mind.

Dear The Voice, I am thoroughly enjoying you this season, especially since the original coaches are back. I don't have as many favorites this season though. 


 Dear rain, I used to like you but do you have any idea how hard it is to get two kids in and out of the car when you're drenching us? Go away. Now.

Dear readers, Have a good weekend!

    Haha, the minivan comment cracked me up. I still refuse on one too...I'd rather do some sort of small SUV instead!

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 ...
