No link up while the Adventures of Newlyweds blog us under construction but here are my letters anyway!

Dear Labor Day Weekend, you rocked! 

Dear stomach bug or food poisoning, you didn't rock.  But thank you for sparing the Baby Girl.  She has been sick enough the first 9 months of her life and she didn't need you sneaking into her system and making her even more sick.  So thanks.  (PS. thanks for the kick start to my weight loss LOL)

Dear aquarium, I'm sorry we didn't make it to you this past weekend.  The above mentioned stomach bug or food poisoning kept us away.  But we are going to plan a nice family trip really soon.

Dear Baby Girl, thanks for being such a fantastic little Baby Girl during our mini vacation.  It's ok that you weren't a fan of the beach or the water or the sand.  You were still happy and healthy the whole time and we had a blast with you!

Dear Gerber, you know as well as I do that my Baby Girl is absolutely adorable and will rock the shit out of all things baby so go ahead and just pick her as your winner. 

Dear time, I really need you to slow down.  On Sunday I will have a 9 month old and I'm not sure how I feel about that.  It's a little too soon for me.  And it's quite ridiculous that in 3 months, I will have a one year old.  I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a full blown Mommy meltdown soon.

Dear Fall, while I am depressed about this whole 'time' thing, I am happy that you are around the corner.  I can't wait to take Baby Girl to her first Fall festival.  Hayrides and cornstalks and pumpkins, Oh my!

Dear Smash, I miss you and I want you back...now.  When do the Fall shows start?!

Dear best friend, thanks for rocking out the Call Me Maybe shirt I got you.  I know you love it.

Dear Husband, would you just give in already?  The baby fever has been hitting hard.

Dear blog, I know I'm still neglecting you. I'm sorry.

Dear everyone reading this, don't forget to Vote for Ashlyn!!!!!  Once a day until September 24th.  Entry ID 46755.

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 ...
