Nickname

So one of my co-workers calls me Momma Grizzly or the Grizz.  He calls my Baby Girl Baby Grizz.  I think it's kind of funny that he refers to me as a Grizzly so I went and did some research on Grizzly bears. 

Grizzly bears normally avoid contact with people - This is very true of me.  I avoid contact with people at all costs.  There are very few people I actually enjoy being around and I like it that way.

Grizzlies are considered by some experts to be more aggressive than black bears when defending themselves and their offspring - Totally agree to this as well.  Don't F* with me or my kid.  It's pretty simple.

When a black bear sees a grizzly coming, it either turns tail and runs or climbs a tree - Pretty sure I have seen people turn and run away from me.  Never seen anyone climb a tree, though.  I'll have to work on that one.

Grizzly bears are cute and they look adorable with their little cubs.  I mean, how is this not cute?!


I think it's a pretty good nickname my co-worker has chosen for me.  I was actually thinking of changing my blog title to some Grizzly related.  The Grizz.  Momma Grizzly.  The Musings of a Momma Bear.  Something clever.

Hey, I'm no good at the design stuff.


What do you 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 ...

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 ...
