Friday's Letters

 
Dear Baby Girl, in order to preserve our sanity (yes, yours and mine), I think we are going to take a little break from potty training.  Peeing on the floor six times in one day is just not ok.  And now all I see from you is frustration so we are just going to give you a break.  Better luck next time.  Also, I'm sorry you are sick.  Throwing up in the middle of the night is no fun.  But you seemed fine today so we'll see how tonight goes.
 
Dear Little Man, just like that you are sitting up all by yourself.  I'm not sure what happened but you've decided that it's time to be a big boy and Mama isn't liking it one bit.  Slow down on the growing my man. 

Dear new bed, I was worried that you were going to suck but you're not that bad.  My back seems to hurt a little less now so kudos to you on that one.  Plus, you're like a regular size bed so the sheets fit you normally.  I was a little tired of that 8 inch pillow top that no sheets fit.

Dear Hulu Plus, I'm kind of digging you.  I like that you allow me to watch the shows that I NEED to watch.  I think you are going to be quite useful.  Except for right this second.  Because you keep freezing while I'm trying to watch Parenthood so I can gossip with my California queen about it. 
 
Dear spider, you may have been the biggest F*ing spider I have ever seen.  I don't even know where you came from but you scared the shit out of me and you almost made me cry.  I'm sorry but I did have a little smile when my husband squished you.  Karma this dummy.

Dear Cleanse, while I'm glad I participated in you, I am also glad you are over.  I kept forgetting to take the stupid pills all of the time so I'm sure you didn't work to your fullest advantage for me but that's ok.  Your fiber drink was disgusting so I'm glad it's over.
 
Dear readers, Have a good weekend!

    YES! Did you see the last parenthood? What does this mean?! Did he show up for Zeek, is there more? Is the house definitely going to be sold? Somehow I don't think it will be...should you and I start our own parenthood "and other shows" blog? lol btw, I hate spiders, hate hate hate them. So happy when they die because I'm certain they are out to get me.

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 ...
