this poor baby
it’s highly unfortunate that i don’t have a respectable singing voice because our days around the house are pretty much filled with musical numbers that i create from showtunes or other songs but change the words to based on our current happenings (the verses often vary but the choruses remain the same time after time)
some of the most common diddys i sing to sweet baby Rock…

so the running total for the puppy is now…
diabetes - gets insulin shots 2x a day for life
blind - not really treating this, just letting him walk into everything
glaucoma - could possibly treat with eye drops 2x a day or surgery
deaf - no treatment
ear infection - gets gel steroid/antifungal 2x a day until it clears
allergies - takes zyrtec 9 months a year
dimentia - not currently...

i just ugly cried at the Vet
he has a major ear infection in one ear (the other one is perfection) and i hadn’t even noticed
also the red eyes he’s had for months probably mean glaucoma which is apparently extremely painful for them
we talked about quality of life and when is the right time to make the call
i suddenly feel the same as the day the Dr. came out and asked me, my mom, and my sister if we wanted to...

can someone please explain the tankini to me?
I mean, if you’re trying to hide your midsection why do it with something that might accidentally show it if you move the wrong way? isn’t that what one-pieces are for? I feel like I must be missing something since they’re so wildly popular

thank baby jesus for free shipping and free returns (and that my husband never bothers to read my blog) because it’s really hard to go shopping like i normally do when you have an infant.
how i used to shop: decide i need a specific thing to complete a certain outfit and i get a picture in my head of EXACTLY what it needs to look like, then i literally go to every single store i can think...

when we were deciding what to buy to help us take care of our baby we made a point to avoid all of those giant vibrating/musical/swinging hideous contraptions. mostly i just didn’t want those plastic monstrosities in my house, you gotta admit that none of them actually complete your decor.
and then one night i watched my husband sit on the floor, lean up against the bed and rock our baby...

on colic
all i have to say is FUCK THAT TERM.
okay, i know it’s harsh (and i’m supposed to lose the sailor mouth now that i’m some one’s Momma) but seriously, it’s NONSENSE.
it means nothing. NOTHING. there’s NO actual definition for it and yet it has this awful connotation. i mean seriously, when i hear someone say “my baby has colic” i hear “my baby...

apparently i can’t watch 16 and pregnant any more
not only do i cry loads of sappy tears the moment the baby is born but i also become IRATE and HORRIFIED about these baby daddys
i know i’m just catching up on episodes but yeesh - and why is it that every single girl thinks having this dude’s baby is going to make their relationship better or that he’ll marry her...

i was at the store when the lady in line behind me started up a conversation about my baby
she asked all the regular questions - boy or girl? how old is he? what’s his name?
and then she hit me with a new one - is he a good baby?
and instantly felt the urge to lament - well lately things have taken a turn for the worse, with the crying and sometimes screaming. he has these bouts of...

i had my baby over a month ago
various co-workers and clients have contacted me with their congratulations
but my boss has yet to say a word to me. what a douche. at least pretend you have some tact, fool.
i’d be way more upset/angry/irate about this if i were returning to that crap place of employment.

Husband has no idea why I’m teaching our son to say “oobly ooo”
Tell him and I’ll kill you.

went to the outlets this weekend to load up on unnecessary BR Factory Store purchases and learned something very valuable - someone may have switched my baby in the hospital.
this kid hates the outlets. HATES. i’d take him outside the store and calm him down and he was all cool but the minute we wheeled back into BR he lost his mind, every.time. i have no idea who he is but i refuse to...
