Manic Monday

Linking up with Terri at Rambling Momma for
 
 
 
1.  What is your dream job?
--------As of right now, my dream job is being a stay at home Mom.  I can't wait to be able to spend all day with my little angel.  A paying job?  Probably something in party planning.  I love to plan parties.  I love to decorate and coordinate food and design invitations.  I wish I would have realized that before I got the $70K business degree but oh well. 
 
2.  If you can travel anywhere in the world, where would you go?
--------Italy.  I have always want to go to Italy.
 
3.  What are the top 3 things on your bucket list?
--------I have honestly never had a bucket list.  I've never sat down and said 'these are the things I want to do by the time I'm...' because I know the list would be ever changing since so many of my decisions are based on where I am at with my life.  So, I'll list my three top priorities as of right now. 
 
1.  to become a stay at home mom
2.  to move into a bigger home
3.  to pay off all of our debt
 
Pretty boring, I know, but that's what's important right now.  Ask me again next year and I might say go skydiving!
 
4.  If you could have 3 wishes granted, what would they be?
--------1.  to win an obscene amount of money the lottery, because that would take care of our debt, help us move into a new home and help us to set our children up financially for life.  And it would help me cross off the three bucket list items above.  2.  for my family and I to live long healthy lives, meaning maintaining healthy weights and avoiding illness and disease.  3.  that the concept of common sense be instilled in every living human being.  I think this would end a lot of stupidity and would really make the world a more tolerable place.
 
5.  What's your favorite song of the moment?
--------Alex Clare, Too Close - not sure why but I jam out to it every time I hear it!ļ»æ

    I love all your answers. I also long to be a SAHM. And a paying job like that would be good because...you can do it from HOME!

      Thanks! I can't wait to stay at home. My husband thinks I'll go crazy but I don't.

17 Tips - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin

17 Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy - #1 Take a Prenatal Vitamin Even when you're still trying to conceive, it's smart to start taking prenatal vitamins. Your baby's neural cord, which becomes the brain and spinal cord, develops within the first month of pregnancy, so it's important you get essential nutrients, like folic acid, calcium, and iron, from the very start. Prenatal vitamins are available over the counter at most drug stores, or you can get them by prescription from your doctor. If taking them makes you feel queasy, try taking them at night or with a light snack. Chewing gum or sucking on hard candy afterward can help, too. It took me a little while to get into the habit of taking my prenatal vitamin. I wasn't used to taking anything daily since I had been off the pill for a few months. I finally got myself in the habit of taking it every morning. I just take an over the counter vitamin. It has the same nutrients as a doctor prescribed vitamin but is less hass...

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 ...

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 ...
