It appears I have too much free time on my hands today. My three-blog-postings-in-one-day is misleading.

Jason: Are you poopy?

Solomon: No.

Jason: Are you lyin'?

Solomon: Roooooaaar!!
Happy Birthday Dani!!

I miss you so much & wish I could be there to spend the day with you. I hope you're having a great day, I love you!

I Like My Job -- They Pay Sucks, But It's Fun!

I should really find a job by November 1st. This makes me very sad because I DO NOT want to go back to work, repeat: DO NOT want to go back to work. Now I feel great & am enjoying my time at home with my babies (even if Solomon is currently spitting his milk out into his pasta then drinking the marinera milk -- gross!). I'd much rather spend all day every day with them. Alas, we cannot afford to do that right now :(

The Joys & Pains of Hyperlactation

Pros:
  • Charlotte is definitely getting enough food.
  • She eats enough in 5-10 minutes (it's recommended that an infant eats for 15 minutes on each side -- so one feeding usually lasts between 30-45 minutes. But not for us!).
  • It's better than the alternative of not having enough milk.
Cons:
  • She usually chokes & gags when eating, which upsets her (& me!).
  • My boobs hurt sometimes & feel like solid rocks; I letdown frequently & that stings pretty badly too.
  • Nursing pads can get really expensive when you go through them as fast as I do.

White Moms Can't Dance
(at least this one can't)

Solomon asked me to put Shrek on & I started singing & dancing to the opening song, Smash Mouth's "All Star." He started dancing too then stopped long enough to push me off of the dance floor. My moves must be pretty sucky.

I'm probably the most boring person I know. I used to be fun. Now? Not so much.
