I don’t feel like blogging today, I just feel like lately I haven’t had much positive stuff to say. Hopefully I’ll find something to write about tomorrow. Ta ta

As Promised
Today I’m going to give you a photo blog. Oh, I must say one thing. Huggies are now cheaper that Kirkland Signature diapers at Costco and I wondered why but we bought them and it’s because they aren’t nearly as good as Kirland. Just a heads up, Kirland remains the best diaper. Huggies leak a… Continue reading As Promised
Poor Silas
Silas woke up today with a fever of 102 in his armpit. Brent and I took him to the doctor who said his ear was VERY inflamed. Gosh, another ear infection. His last one was just in July. Stupid ear infections. Right now he’s cuddling with his Daddy and listening to our Germany Choir sing… Continue reading Poor Silas
Breast Crawl
I saw the strangest video today. It’s all about the breast crawl. They’ve found that a newborn baby will find it’s way to the breast within 10-60 minutes if placed between the mother’s breasts. Apparently the process is really important in these people’s eye. I thought it was very interesting. If you don’t mind seeing… Continue reading Breast Crawl
Peanut Allergy Haters?
I came across a Facebook group last night as I was searching for a group of parents who had kids with peanut allergies. The group is called I Hate People With Peanut allergies. I thought the group might just be kind of silly but much to my dismay, I came across these things: “I’ve got… Continue reading Peanut Allergy Haters?
Thursday Thirteen #10
Thirteen Things that make me giggle When I’m driving behind someone and they put their blinker on to go around a sharp corner. Watching contestants on The price Is Right. Memories of hanging out with Courtenay in high school. Seeing someone pick a wedgie in public after they’ve looked around to see if no one… Continue reading Thursday Thirteen #10
The Universe Conspires
Just when I’d had enough, when I thought not much more could really go wrong, the Universe decided to throw another one at me. I had just exited my kitchen on my way to lay on the couch with Isaac and nurse him when the Universe grabbed my foot and placed it ever so perfectly… Continue reading The Universe Conspires
Bye Bye Fuzzies
I have warm fuzzies floating under my skin. I just cuddled in bed with Silas in hopes of him calming down and getting some nap time. He listens to this lullaby CD and I don’t know all the songs. He wants me to sing along so I just make things up like “Silas go to… Continue reading Bye Bye Fuzzies
Sometimes I Don’t Feel Like Making A Title.
Every time I sit down here I draw a blank about what I had been planning to write about so I just blab and blab and blab with no direction. I wish I could remember because I’m not finding anything to blab about either. Hmmmmmm. Ikey’s nursing wacky again (I just remembered what I was… Continue reading Sometimes I Don’t Feel Like Making A Title.
Sunshine Makes It Better
Gosh I’m freezing. I hate wearing lots of clothes though, I’m not giving into fall just yet. I’m so not ready for summer to end. I’m feeling better today. I woke up to the sun shining and Silas screaming but the sun was shining so the screaming didn’t cut through me straight into my nerves… Continue reading Sunshine Makes It Better
Depressed
A year ago I was feeling so great. Feeling like I wouldn’t ever get hit by the depression bug ever again, feeling like I’d always stay skinny and that my passion for eating healthy would stay with me. I would say that it’s easy to not emotional eat, it’s easy to stay happy. I hate… Continue reading Depressed
I’m Bummed
So now what? What do I do about Halloweens? What do I do about Silas going for sleepovers with his friends? What if his friend’s birthday party is at a restaurant he can’t go to? What does he say when kids make fun of him because he’s never eaten at McDonalds? I’ve read a few… Continue reading I’m Bummed
So I Drank About It
Man, yesterday I WANTED to be writing about how my cutie pie Ikey rolled over and is starting to reach for things now. The bad news got the best of me. I ended up drinking about it and I’m not feeling too hot today. What an awful way to cope, seriously, I thought people did… Continue reading So I Drank About It
Shattering Into Pieces
Last night I had the shock of my life. I cooked supper and threw some peanut sauce on our stir fry without thinking. I thought about it for a second and then thought it should be ok for Silas to have a little this time. I’ve been avoiding peanuts because there’s so many allergies in… Continue reading Shattering Into Pieces
The Back Boobs
***Disclaimer: This is a post about how I feel about my body right now. By no means am I looking for people to say “oh no, you look fine”. There’s nothing more annoying than the girl who does that or the people who say that when I’m not looking for that. I have a pretty… Continue reading The Back Boobs
