So What Wednesday

So What Wednesday
This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • I finally told the girls at daycare that Baby Girl won't be there much longer.  It was kind of sad because I know how much they all love her.
  • I'm pretty sure that Baby Girl told me to suck it this morning on the way to daycare.  I don't know where she would have picked that up so I can't be sure that's what she said but it sure sounded like it.
  • We have no outside toys for Baby Girl.  Nothing.  My husband built her a make-shift sand pit but we don't have any toys for her to play with.  We need to work on that since the kid wants to be outside all.the.time.
  • I think Tim McGraw is hot hot hot!  I know if he takes his hat off it's not quite as pretty but I mean, the man is 46 years old and he looks like this?

 
  • I took Baby Girl grocery shopping with me last night and she was awesome.  She helped me put things in the cart, didn't complain once, and was even saying hi to everyone we passed!  I felt like a rock star Mom.
  • I kind of get cold sweats thinking about how I'm going to do above mentioned grocery shopping with my testy toddler and a baby!
  • Baby Girl got another friggin balloon last night at the store.  It's the first thing she sees when we walk into the store so she points and yells 'Bawoon!' until she gets one.
  • Even though he jokes around a lot and says some questionable (but funny) things on his Twitter account, I really think Blake Shelton is a good person who loves his wife.  Look at the admiration in his eyes as his wife sings the song they wrote for his brother.
  • I feel like my belly doubled in size over night.  I mean, it was popping before but now?  It's HUGE!  No bump photo because I'm wearing a ruffly shirt that doesn't do well in photos.
  • I feel the pregnancy attitude creeping up on me hard I'm not liking it one bit. 
  • The heat is not helping my swollen ankles.  Heat = swelling = weight gain = me freaking out!  I don't know why the weight thing is bothering me so much this time around.
  • I almost smacked another Mother at daycare today.  See Rant and Rave.
  • "I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you leave them" is pretty much my new favorite quote.
  • I cried like a baby when I watched this video yesterday.  It's worth the 22 minutes.

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...

So What Wednesday

So what if I have been converted to a snow hater. I usually love the snow.  I loved to see the white stuff blanketing everything.  I loved having snow days.  I loved how quiet it would get because people were keeping warm in their homes.  I loved the sound of sleds and kids building snowmen. I don't love it anymore. Snow days?  I don't get snow days.  I don't work.  I don't get to have work or school canceled.  I don't get to take the day off from my kids because of the snow.  What I do get is to have a mini van that sucks in the snow so I don't get to go anywhere and get cooped up in the house with the kids. And I also get a husband who is gone.  He plows snow in the Winter.  Go figure.  He has been gone almost non-stop for the past two weeks because of this stupid snow and he will be gone again tonight because of the snow.  So not only do I get stuck inside with the kids while my husband is gone, I also h...
