Well, another day here in our new home and I’m loving it here!! It’s so much cooler living near the ground!! We need new blinds pronto though. There’s nothing on our sliding glass doors and it freaks me out when I’m nursing at night. I’m too scared to turn the TV on because then someone… Continue reading My Kids Hate Me

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
I Do It
Wow, a vocabulary breakthrough has happened this morning. Silas just put his own sentence together using his own understanding of the English language. He said “I do it” when he wanted to feed himself. Everything is covered in oatmeal as a result. I’m so happy that he’s starting to use sentences. So exciting. Yesterday he… Continue reading I Do It
Stupid IUD
So much for stupid IUD’s. No one told me they cost like 300 bucks. Poo on that. I stepped on the scale and realized that I have lost more weight. It even went to this month’s goal weight for 1/2 a second but then back up to 170. I guess I am still losing so… Continue reading Stupid IUD
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
Little Ball of Sunshine.
I swear my son is a little ball of sunshine and he’ll forever light up a room when he walks in. I know I complain a lot about his short temper but when he’s not tantruming he really is this little ball of sunshine and he’s constantly making me smile…or pine for his delicious lips… Continue reading Little Ball of Sunshine.
Oh Well
I think I’m softening. I’ve definitely inherited my mother’s “oh well” personality. I still call her after bad dreams and I hear an “oh well, it was just a dream”. Usually when Silas is freaking out about something stupid I’m usually the same way, “oh well”. I’ve never felt bad for letting him cry at… Continue reading Oh Well
ONE WEEK LEFT!!!!
There’s a half hour left until I can gleefully go to dream land. I was up far too late last night so I’m feeling it this morning. We met some friends (Kristy and her hubby) at IHOP for breakfast. I had a massive meal but I still don’t really feel full. This baby is riding… Continue reading ONE WEEK LEFT!!!!
1 Week and 4 Days Left
Well, the baby is still inside of me. I was hoping he’d come out yesterday but I guess he’s content to stay put for a while longer. He’s welcome to come out now, I’m feeling very warm feelings towards him and Brent’s feeling ready for him to be out too. Yesterday I tried some traditional… Continue reading 1 Week and 4 Days Left
A Better Morning
Silas kinda made up for his early morning rising this morning. I’m waking up at around 6 now just because I’m getting used to it…grrrr. Silas woke up about 6:20 but he was actually happy and talking to himself so I just left him until he wasn’t happy. I tried to give him toys but… Continue reading A Better Morning
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
Silas The Brave
This morning I woke up at 6:30 to a toddler who, again, did not want to play in his crib. Woe is me. We did have an amazing cuddle in my bed which slightly made up for the fact that I was losing out on some precious sleep. Once we were up, I opened the… Continue reading Silas The Brave
17 Months Old
I’m feeling much better today. I hate days like yesterday, they really suck. Silas is 17 months old this week. Time has really flown by since he turned One. His vocabulary continues to grow each day but I don’t think it’s grown as much as it did last month. His incredible memory when it comes… Continue reading 17 Months Old
Sleepy
Goodness I’m sleepy. I had a very full day yesterday but I had a pretty good time getting all those photos done. See my previous post for a little sneak peek at what we did. It took both of us (my girlfriend and I) a little while to get comfortable with the whole situation but… Continue reading Sleepy
Hitting and Biting and Scratching OH MY!
So my darling little Silas has turned into a violent little booger and I’m actually starting to get upset. He does this little hit and claw move where he hits you and then digs his nails in and pulls back, sometimes you get a pinch too. If you hold onto his hands then he will… Continue reading Hitting and Biting and Scratching OH MY!
