So What Wednesdays


This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • If Baby Girl spends almost all of her time in her new bouncer.  She really loves that thing and I get shit done!
  • My husband and I decided to take a 'me' day Sunday which turned into an 'everyone else' day.
  • I'm still sick. 
  • I haven't slept through the night in like 5 weeks, 2 of which are because I'm sick, and not because of Baby Girl
  • I still haven't packed away the bassinet.  I haven't made her sleep in it at all this week so it's ok.
  • I already gave my husband one of his Father's Day gifts.  I was just too excited about it!
  • I know the only thing my husband really wants for Father's Day is to sleep and I went ahead and scheduled a full day of events for us.  It's his first Father's Day! 
  • I'm getting my Dad a grill for Father's Day even though it's really for my Mom because she wants a new grill.  My Dad is never home to grill anything anyway!
What are you saying so what to this week?

      I never expected her to be so content in that thing! I constantly poke my head in the room hoping she will be looking for me but she never is!

    my daughter HATED the bouncer and then out of the blue...LOVED it and wanted to be in it all the time. It was such a radical change from the screaming she used to do. ahhhh but that was so long ago, I miss having a sweet baby - time for another? I think so!!! hahaha

      Yes my daughter wasn't a fan of the stationary one we bought her. You know the ones with the round saucers on the bottom? But she loves the Rainforest one that actually bounces. I can't get her out of it!

    I am still over here trying to think of Father's Day gifts for my hubs. I'm thinking the sleep idea would be great for him (and me, for that matter!)

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...

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 ...
