So What Wednesday



So What Wednesday
This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • Once again, I haven't blogged since last Wednesday. I'm really not liking this since I am falling behind in my reading! I also have a bumpdate post from last week and a baby shower post.
  • My baby shower was this past Sunday and I didn't get a single picture of myself or anyone else who came. I only got a few pictures of the decorations. Party fail!
  • Baby Girl has watched Madagascar every day this week so far. I've got to get that girl interested in some other movies.
  • I didn't realize how restless my dogs would be with me being home. They never seem to just settle down during the day.
  • Baby Girl's sleep is still off. Her naps this week have only been about 40 minutes compared to her normal one to two hours, she has been waking up early and going to bed late. This makes for a very tired Mama.
  • While I really wanted the Little Man to come on his own, I'm kind of hoping that my doctor will suggest induction at my next appointment since my swelling has gone up the past week. We will see!
  • Trying to keep a house clean with a toddler and 3 shedding dogs running around is pretty much impossible. I'm over it.
  • I seriously hate doing dishes and they always seem to be never ending at my house.
  • I haven't watched any news channels or read any news articles in the past week. I have no idea what's going on in the world and I kind of like it.

    Leah did that too the past month or so, going to bed really late on us and napping (hit or miss). This week I was determined to get her to bed at a decent time. She used to go to bed around 8 and then it was 11 and she still wasn't sleeping (starting when she became afraid of the dark). The past 3 nights I've gotten her IN THE BATH at 8 and in bed by 9:15 (thank the Lord!) because this mommy is tired and needs her time at night. I hope they induce you! I remember how swollen I was with Leah and finally they induced me due to my BP and I couldn't haven been happier!

    P.S Your dishes are like my laundry. :)

    We tried Madagascar with Taylor based on your little girl's love it, but Tay wasn't interested. But she will watch any of the three Toy Story movies beginning to end. Have you tried them?

    Woody and Buzz are her favorite words! Hahahaha.

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 ...
