Friday's Letters


 
Dear Baby Girl, the weather is warmer and you want to be outside all the time.  That's fine.  We enjoy being outside too.  But not when it's raining.  Let's chill with the rainy day tantrums. 

Dear Baby #2, only 9 more days until I get to see you again.  I can't wait for your 3D ultrasound.  I'm excited to see how your sister reacts to your little face too!

Dear warmer weather, I believe that I did ask for you to show your face but I did not ask for 90 degree humidity.  That does not help my ankles one bit.  Tone it down.

Dear Grey's, I miss you.  The end.

Dear weekend, I'm so looking forward to you and the extra day I get with you.  We have no real plans for you so you will probably be super boring but whatever.  One less day of work is always good!

Dear Oklahoma victims, my heart goes out to all of you.  I can't imagine how you all must feel with so much destruction.  I can't imagine the pain for the parents who lost children and the people who lost loved ones.  I can only hope that you support each other and re-build your community. 

Dear Zach, may you rest in peace.  Your video is quite inspirational and I know that you have touched many lives, including mine.


 Dear readers,  have a good holiday weekend!

Oh and a bump picture just because.  Baby Boy is growing!

    Boo to your spam comments!

    I would like the weather to figure out what its doing, too. We had a couple weeks of warm 80+ degree weather, but it's cold today! It makes me want to make chicken soup today instead of grilling outside like we planned!

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 ...
