weekend update

I figure if I can at least wrap things up before beginning a new week, this blog will survive. though now that I've made this decision, I have nothing to say. nothing interesting at least.

although, little p shot poo at me yesterday, and again in the tub. both firsts for me. not bad, I think, considering she's my second child. glad I was able to laugh at it, too. during the poo in the tub, hd was in there, and kept repeating, "poop, poop, poop", and was very sad when she was removed from the scene. how I miss the days when poo was a fun and exciting experience.

hd is only going to daycare two days/week this month instead of three, so if pictures of clumps of my hair are all that show up here for a while, you know why.

Feeding woes

with my first child, hd, there were breastfeeding issues -- she clamped. I thought it was me, but no, her fault, only to be discovered when she popped out teeth. we supplemented to help her grow, and hoped the next kid would be fine.

enter little p. so far so good. no clamping, at least that interferes with supply. the kid is huge. however, rather than just deny the boob when full, she goes, "yeah, I want more of that action", and eagerly accepts boob #2. then 5 minutes later, contents of boob #2 are sprayed all over mommy, couch, and boob #2. thankfully, this occurred pre-shower but come on -- JUST SAY NO.

didn't think I'd have to say that to a 10-week-old.

Let's try this again

this is my blog. for real this time. I realized I do want to do this but would rather it not be attached to the family blog. I will do what I can to stay current, though come july, all bets are off.

so how to proceed...my daughter has a pasta shell from shells-n-cheese stuck up her nose. got out half before she'd had enough and wouldn't let me anywhere near it. it's in there. I can see it. but other than the occasional sneeze and a slight runny nose, seems to be okay. we'll see tomorrow I guess.

I'm out, at the bar, doing the blog thing. first vodka in almost a year and it is...FABulous. as long as dad is willing, I plan to do this more. maybe this is when the blogging will occur...
