So What Wednesday

Check out Shannon at Life After I Dew for So What Wednesday.

So what if:

~This is my first private post. I hate that I had to completely block off my life from certain people but I know it had to be done. I'm just happy you're all still here with me!

~I have no idea if my email subscription is still working. It stopped working because I had changed my blog name and had forgotten to adjust it on my feed burner but now it doesn't seem to be working at all.

~I'm almost finished with my Christmas shopping. I love being done with time to spare!

~I always wait until I have purchased all Christmas gifts before I wrap them. It's an organizational thing. I like to separate gifts by person and wrap them all in the same paper for each person. OCD at its finest.

~I'm a little too excited for our new furniture that is coming today.

~I was really surprised to see Home on Netflix already. I wasn't sold on the movie at first but I guess it's a cute one.

~I want to send my Christmas cards out now. I usually wait until closer to Christmas to send them but I think I'll do it now. I really love our card this year.

~I'm happy that I have my grandmother's piano now but I'm also a little sad because I know the kids won't leave it alone and I don't want them to break it.

~I feel like I'm ALWAYS cleaning and yet my house is never clean. Dam kids.

~I'm excited for my PartyLite party on Sunday. I can't wait to get my hands on some of their Christmas items.

~I cut about an inch off of Ashlyn's hair just to give it a trim and now she's complaining that it's too short. I guess I won't be cutting her hair ever again.

What are you saying so what to?

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 ...
