So What Wednesday

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

So what if:

~I am thinking of putting Ashlyn in preschool this Fall and I'm surprised by how emotional that's been making me.

~I thought I was calling the dr last night. Lots of contractions and cramping but false alarm. Let's go little boy. You can come out now.

~Even though I say that ^ I really want him to wait for a week or weekend that I will have my female OB. I just like her better.

~I am SO over the crazy that goes on in my husband's family. The backstabbing, the talking badly about each other, the non stop issues. It's so not worth our energy.

~I like the Woman's Day magazine but there are so many ad pages that it's hard to even read the dam thing.

~My brother in law and sister in law finally announced their pregnancy! (and then were promptly bashed by family members they don't even speak to) I'm excited for them and all of the awesome things a first baby will bring.

~My BFF, my person, my unbiological sister moved to Virginia and I'm feeling some kinda way about it.

~I can't stand ants. We get the little ants and the big ants and they are all annoying.

~I have no idea how to buy clothing for Ashlyn right now. She's moving into girl's sizes instead of toddler and I haven't grasped the concept of the size difference.

~I'm excited for June. We are having a birthday party again this year (my person and I) and it's going to be awesome.

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 ...
