Weekend Re-Cap

I didn't post to my normal link up Friday because I took the day off.  So instead, I'm re-capping my weekend.  It was a busy one.

I took off Friday to go to a funeral.

This lady...
...yea she was ridiculously awesome.
 
We were so surprised by her passing since was just 74 years old.  She was a part of our extended family.  Well she was a part of every one's extended family!  She was an amazing woman who smiled and laughed so much.  She loved and she loved hard.   
 
Miss Betty is her name and she will be fiercely missed by all.
 
We took Baby Girl to daycare since we knew she wouldn't understand anything going on at the funeral.  My husband didn't have much work to do because it rained all day long so we went out for lunch and ran some errands.
 
Saturday was a nice day.  My husband had to work but Baby Girl and I slept in and then went to a picnic in the afternoon.  The girl loves to be outside so she had a blast.  She ran non-stop from the time we got there until the time we left.
 



I can't believe how anti-social kids are these days.  Baby Girl said hi to every little kid on the playground and they all ignored her or ran away.  It kinda broke my heart because she would look over at me like, 'what did I do wrong?'  I felt so bad because she was just trying to be nice!

She still had a blast, though.  She wasn't a big fan of the swings.  I'm not sure why they freaked her out so much but she just wanted nothing to do with them!

After the picnic, we went shopping at Old Navy and got Baby Girl some awesome new summer clothes.  We had two major meltdowns because she wanted a pair of shoes that didn't fit her feet.  Then she wanted a pair of flip flops that hurt her feet.  She said OUCH every time I put them on her but she wanted them!

Then we went up to our 'new house', the one that we are planning to buy this year.  Baby Girl loves being there.  She loves running around, she loves playing with the new baby piggy and now there are baby chicks there so she is in heaven! 

Sunday was fun day too.  Baby Girl slept in again and then we hung out and watched some movies while Daddy worked again.  We went to visit Baby Girl's BFF Maya in the evening and then went to a dinner block party at a friend's local restaurant.  The girls had a blast!




Of course Baby Girl didn't want to go in the house when we got home so we stayed outside for awhile.  Oh and how could I forget?!  My little schmuffin turned 18 months old yesterday!



We had a pretty good weekend!

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 ...
