So What Wednesday

Check out Shannon at Life After I Dew for So What Wednesday.

So what if:

~I'm really into florals right now and I want a floral purse. My husband thinks I'm nuts.

~I was highly surprised by how our taxes worked out this year. One more stressor to take off our list.

~I am so disappointed with the lack of progress I'm having with this baby. I know I have 3ish weeks left but with all the cramping I've been having, I thought for sure something was happening. I was wrong.

~After months of asking, my husband finally dug the bouncy seat out of the loft only to find that it is broken. Thank goodness for Target...I got a new one for a great price and free shipping.

~I've been taking naps with the boy every day. I feel like I really need that nap in the middle of the day but then I can't get myself to sleep at night.

~I get so annoyed with all the 'our hearts are breaking for you' when it comes to celebrity divorces. What about the normal people who get divorced? Are your hearts breaking for them too? Are you writing detailed articles about what you think is going on in their lives? So annoying.

~I can't remember the last time I went grocery shopping. My husband hasn't let me go in so long because I kept buying what I was hungry for instead of what we needed. He still buys things I ask for, though, like chocolate licorice and chocolate covered donuts.

~I'm glad that this baby will be born before Summer. I love sitting out on our patio with a nice cold alcoholic beverage at night. And I don't want to be all pregnant and swollen over the Summer again.

~I'm having a hard time coming up with Mother's Day gifts this year. Etsy is usually my savior and I'm sure this year won't be any different.

~I haven't installed the car seat yet. I'm having a really hard time preparing for this baby.

What are you saying so what to?

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 ...
