Morning

I'm awake, its 10:30 and I am just managing to get breakfast started. Kyler's already had a scrambled egg & waffle, he is to impaitent to wait for daddy to wake up. I'm trying yogurt french toast, we'll see how it flys at the breakfast table. Atleast I know Kyler will probably approve of it. He doesnt mind my cooking.

>blink<

I'm barely awake & have a migrane, so I probably shouldnt be sitting here staring the monitor, but I am on baby breakfast patrol. I managed to scrape together blueberry waffles (frozen, I'm not cooking), fresh blueberries & apple cinnamon cherrios. He seems to be eating & enjoying it all. As for me 1 waffle and a glass of water. I have the tendacy to throw up with migranes and with the baby kicking me in the stomach I dont want to push it. Speaking of which I had a dr's appt yesterday. Shes growing great and has a good heartbeat. We dont decide until my 34 week if I will do VBAC or a C-section. He said take that time to think it over. Anyways, my kid is scaling his highchair better go.

Hello Pampers

For now I have stopped using cloth until I 1)have enough money for a sewing machine, fabric and thread 2)enough money to afford enough diapers to cover Kyler's bum for atleast 3 days. I am tired of washing diapers every day, sometimes twice a day, because I just dont have enough diapers to make it. I only have a dozen flats and 4 covers and for a heavy wetter like Kyler it is just not working. It makes it alot harder for me being pregnant to fight with diaper changes and the added work. So I went and picked up some first steps pamper diapers, pull up kind so I dont have to fight with him to change his diaper. He can happily go about his business playing while I change his diaper standing up. Problem solved.

I'm so bored. Nothing to do. Homework, although I should do it, doesnt seem like fun right now. Looking for diapers is no fun when you can't buy any. Looking at diaper patterns is getting old, when you have no sewing machine. :(

Money is the root of all evil, period.

I hate money, bills, groceries & everything else tied to money. As you can tell my day isnt going right and I need to rant. I forgot the electricity bill and when it went through it put us negative. I hate being negative, then the bank charges us yet another $25, so what I am -$50 by the end of it. Just for one stupid mistake. I wish banks were forgiving, haha...thats almost laughable. Just yet another reason why I'm loving my cloth diapers ( I think I have cloth diapers on the brain) I dont have to bitch about needing another package of $30 'sposie diapers that I will throw away. Also glad that we went to Costco for grocery shopping last week, I will never run out of chicken nuggets or fish sticks ever.

...so I abandoned my blog for what? 3 months now.

Life is busy, when is it not. Kyler is completly mobile, walking and getting into everything a 13 month old should (or err shouldnt?) His new baby sister is halfway baked, and we are pretty mellow with this pregnancy, plus like Kyler's its pretty easy. I think the first baby frantic, oh my god we need everything mentality is way over. I gave up disposable diapers, it burns a hole in your pocket. We have completely moved over to cloth diapers. Don't shake your head...I see you. Cloth is way past those flat diapers & pins your mothers & grandmothers used. There cute, fun and easy to use! Plus Kyler's bum is looking better then ever. I am trying to learn to sew diapers on my own and hoping by fall I will have my own online store open, ya know in between school, a busy-busy toddler, a newborn and my family.

Slacker.

I've been on the slow side to updating my blog, I've been so busy. Kyler is 10 months old as of last Saturday, and I am 10 weeks pregnant with out second "gooblet". We are thinking this will be our last child, for more reasons then one. Which at this time I will not list. I start my first three college classes April 5th, I'm excited to finally get a chance to go to school & move out into my career, Med Trans.

Back to Kyler news: Hes starting to walk, holding on to his walker that he can push. My baby boy is getting so big, almost his first birthday, which I pretty much have planned. I was thinking of doing my own birthday cake for Kyler, but after thinking about it, I just am not the decorative cake type person, so we decided on a ice cream cake from Dairy Queen, and a cupcake (ahem no sugar) for Kyler to smush his face in.

I'm a big boy

No more pureed baby food for my lil guy, nope, no way no how. Hes moved on to finger foods. Another milestone gone, never to come across again. My baby is growing up way to fast, makes me want another. We went shopping for "finger foods" at the grocery store and came home sporting a whole aray of new and intresting (to Kyler) foods for him to gobble up. His first new food was chicken ravioli with carrots & carrot chunks, dessert was a few diced peices of apple. He poked at the ravioli, squished it in his hand, then licked it. After that the ravioli was history, gone in a matter of minutes. Carrots took a bit longer, he didnt dig those as much. The apples were a complete no-no in Kyler's book, he puckered at them. Ah well...a new food tomorrow and new adventure.

New Pictures





Rambling

We've made it a week. Kyler had a double ear infection, hence my lack in updating my blog, but with meds, which are a chore to adminster, Kyler is getting better. Our dog on the other hand, has started showing signs of seperation anxiety. He whines, scratches at the kitchen floor at night. Walks so close to you that you trip over him. This morning we left him out to roam the house while we went grocery shopping and came home to the carpet by the front door all tore up. My husband was furious, but couldnt blame him. We are going to invest in a crate & hope it helps.

Ear Infections GRR!

Kyler has another suspected ear infection, so hes off to the doctors tomorrow at 10am. Poor guy. Hes so cranky & grouchy, he didnt even want anything to do with mommy today, it was "I want dad day." To bad dad left at 3pm for work for the evening. Atleast Kyler is taking a well needed nap, plus I think I needed a break, my ears are appreciative, with all that screaming.
