I can't get it to look how I want so it's probably gonna end up being plain old boring black again. Wordpress goes beyond my very limited HTML knowledge.

Because some family search for our FAMILY blog by our names and not using the link that I had sent out, they stumbled upon this here site.

It's probably the slowest transition ever but a good cloth diaper is wonderful.

The mom didn't leave a bottle because she said the baby wouldn't be hungry before they got home. And as you'd expect when there is no bottle backup, the baby was starving. So what did this yoga lady do? Have you ever heard of sugar titties? Well I haven't.

I was trying to avoid a very cranky baby at the doctors. Despite lack of sleep, he was wonderful.He had a great appointment. I was concerned he didn't gain that much weight because his spare tire isn't much of a spare anymore and I'm constantly afraid of malabsorption with his chronic Mama C-tahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13037684490850638205noreply@blogger.com11tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11423672.post-1131918864656466962005-11-13T16:10:00.000-05:002005-11-13T16:56:08.506-05:00A new dayI decided that with every post I need to start off by saying which personality is writing today. Is it the tired, cranky, hungry, beaten down, gloom & doom me or is it the well-rested, turkey-aint-so-bad, silver lining me? It seems they alternate days, I think you can guess who wrote yesterday but today I'm all about the silver lining.

However his "red ring" around his hiney hole is TERRIBLE. The worse I've seen it despite the tons of bum creams I've been slathering on. Since this is a big indicator of a food allergy, needless to say this is beyond discouraging. I feel like a wave came over me today and I realized what I'm eating has little effect on him and this TED is Mama C-tahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13037684490850638205noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11423672.post-1131752020002053762005-11-11T21:33:00.000-05:002005-11-11T22:15:02.953-05:00Mother's Day in NovemberI love my husband. Love! Him! Love him!! He brought me home a sweet card today and IN that card was a gift certificate to a spa for a massage, facial and manicure. Hallelujah!! Funny he said there was a different package he wanted to get me but since I'm J's only food source, it couldn't be too many hours. I don't care, just being pampered for 5 minutes is more than I had in a long time!

First of all, J woke up terribly snotty. This must explain why he woke about every 45 minutes last night, wouldn't let me set him down in the co-sleeper and wouldn't even sleep next to me. Apparently the only place he was willing to sleep was on my chest while I was sitting up.

The latter would make your father very happy. You thought if you put me through a grueling 20 weeks in pregnancy, a full day of vomiting in labor and a difficult delivery I wouldn't want to put myself through that again.

I agreed to a 36", not a great brand, decent price TV that Bryan was happy with. Somehow it turned into a 42" upgrade that has more than doubled in cost from what I agreed to.

Probably the lamest T-day meal ever but let me tell you, it was mighty fine to me! We had an all-natural turkey which turned out great. I was afraid it would be all dry and flavorless since the turkeys we're used to are injected with butter and "flavor." That's one thing this diet has taught me, no food is sacred.
