The other day I gathered my courage and stepped on the scale. I haven’t been a good eater lately I must confess. When there’s this much chaos in my life I have a hard time staying controlled in all areas. So I’ve been eating poorly. I was very surprised when I stepped on the scale… Continue reading I’m Famous??

Who Are You People?
I love 2″ faux wood blinds, they’re beautiful. They’re nestled perfectly into my windows now, blocking out the sun and the people who’ve been spying on me while I’ve been nursing these past 20 days. Issac is happily munching on my right boob and I have a little bowl of Oreo ice cream that I’m… Continue reading Who Are You People?
Breastfeeding Frustrations
Ok so anyone else have a baby who gets milk streaming out of his nose when breastfeeding? Yes, streaming. Like it’s going in his mouth and then straight out his nose. And no, he’s not laughing. I do have a tendancy to have things come out of my nose. Especially when I’m with Courtenay. She’s… Continue reading Breastfeeding Frustrations
Don’t Worry, I’m Happy!
Isaac is completely delicious today. He was in his bouncy chair giggling to himself this morning. He’s such an easy little muffin. I just put him on his tummy for tummy time and he’s just laying there all relaxed. He’s falling asleep. K he was falling asleep. He’s stirring now. I really couldn’t have asked… Continue reading Don’t Worry, I’m Happy!
Blah
I feel yucky. I can’t tell if I have a clogged duct or mastitis. I do have a low fever and a red painful spot on my boob but the spot isn’t warm nor lumpy. It hasn’t gotten worse in the last 24 hours so I’m not sure if I should go to my doc. … Continue reading Blah
Husband to the Rescue
You know what? Mini-wheats are incredibly filling. I go through Mini-wheat phases because they really help keep me regular but I do get sick of them. I’m going through a phase now though, I’m always so amazed by how full they keep me. I just thought I’d let you all know that. My husband saved… Continue reading Husband to the Rescue
This and That
Ah, wonderful sunshine. I just sat on my deck for a bit and soaked in some rays while they lasted. It really helps the mood that’s for sure. Silas is still out there playing and singing. Sometimes when he’s out there he shouts “WEEEE” or “EIEIO” very loudly. I’m sure the people on the street… Continue reading This and That
Nesting Urges.
I’m sneezing from all the dust that is trying to re-settle in my house after I cleaned my room. Yes, you heard me right, I actually CLEANED my room. It was gross in there and all my clothes were nowhere to be found. I actually hung up clothes and folded clothes and I dusted and… Continue reading Nesting Urges.
Be Nice, I’m Pregnant!
So if you’re in the presence of a bulging pregnant woman and you decide to ask her how far along she is, don’t ever say “oh you look farther along than that” or “you must be having twins”. This is a terrible idea. Someone did that to me yesterday and I couldn’t decide weather I… Continue reading Be Nice, I’m Pregnant!
Tired…and Grumpy
I was up late last night because my husband’s 80’s rock band played a gig and it was so fabulous that I was too excited to fall asleep until 1:30-ish. I had a terrible sleep because of the excitement. I got up at about 8:30 in the morning and headed directly to ABC for breakfast… Continue reading Tired…and Grumpy
Swimming, Napping and a Potty.
So I went to the doc yesterday. It was a fine experience except that he got mad at me for not napping. I had a nap today, I hope he’s happy. My pee was fine, my blood pressure was fine, my weight was….fine….I guess. Napping is important so I’ve started even though I’m not the… Continue reading Swimming, Napping and a Potty.
Buying a Car and a Visit From Cootie!
Not much to talk about today. I can’t write for long because I want to get my house cleaned up for Courtenay and Emily. They should be here in a few hours if the highways are OK. I’m very excited to see them. Courtenay (Cootie) was my best friend in high school, we lived across… Continue reading Buying a Car and a Visit From Cootie!
Spring Has Sprungeth
Ahhh, spring is in the air. Well, the air is full of rain but I’m seeing the cherry blossom tree starting to bud and other flowering plants. That’s one thing I LOVE about this area is the early spring and all the beautiful flowering trees and bushes, it’s so lovely. I just wish the rain… Continue reading Spring Has Sprungeth
Canucks Game Tonight!
So I read up on it and yes, there is a hormone that comes back into play in your third trimester that can make you ill. Just my luck hey? Last pregnancy I was still barfing everyday at this point so I didn’t notice. I’m not even close to barfing, I’m just feeling icky. I… Continue reading Canucks Game Tonight!
A Case of the Mondays
I’m so stinking tired. So tired, in fact, that I might actually take a nap today. I’m not a big “napper” the last one I took was weeks ago in MB and it actually really made me feel better. It was the perfect length. I’ve been feeling rather nauseated lately as well. Are there weird… Continue reading A Case of the Mondays
