My Baby Son is Adorable

04/10/10

Seriously. I breed cuteness. Just admire the nummies and comment on how squishy and sweet he is.

You know you want to.

Fabulous Friday

So far today has been a good day and it’s not even noon!

I want to start by sharing an amazing blog post by a friend of mine!

When it comes to breastfeeding, we can’t handle the truth
by The Feminist Breeder {follow on twitter}

Where to even start? I think to say that this post is amazing is a bit obvious considering (at the time of this post) it’s had well over 5,000 facebook shares, 230 comments, and 14,000 pageviews! I strongly urge everyone to go read and comment on her post!

So it’s been a crazy past few days, from my nocturnal children keeping me up all night to the migraine from hell I suffered from yesterday… I am just thrilled to not only be awake in the morning AFTER sleeping (granted only three hours but still), but it’s sunny and we may even go to the Brookfield Zoo today!

At some point this afternoon/evening I am going to try and work on a basic photography tutorial on aperture, basically how changing your aperture can control how much light is let through the lens and how that can change your depth of field.

I’ve been wanting to do another wordpress or blogging tutorial, however not sure what YOU want to learn from ME. Suggestions? By all means I have a question & answer area for a reason!

For kicks, here’s two iPhone app’s I’ve downloaded recently!

Reeder Cost: $2.99 Omgosh I can’t even begin to explain how much I love this RSS feed app! Just download it and love it! It syncs with your Google Reader account which is even more awesome!

Hipstamatic Cost: $1.99 What a great photo app! You can not import from your photo library which some see as a downfall, however I believe the creators intended it for the app to feel more like a “real” film camera. Now I listed the cost as $1.99 however you can download more “lenses” and “film” for an additional $.99.

Really, I just wanted to post more photos and needed an excuse…

Early Spring (photo heavy)

04/07/10

I am trying to pretend that is NOT in the weather forecast to snow for the next two days.

So here are some of my recent photos over the past week of what early Spring has been like for us!

Sleep is for Wussies & Cesarean Awareness Month

04/01/10

Nothing says Spring like lilac buds!

Remember how I was complaining about my insomnia issues? Well last night I had high hopes that I would again be a “day” person because I was EXHAUSTED and in bed by 10:30pm!

Only to be woken up by my glorious boys at 2:30am. I’m scared to even try to nap because I fear I will again be up all night and I want to be up! SUNLIGHT! Warmer weather! Frolicking and taking photos! I only wish my children understood that momma needs outdoor time to be perkier and not dwell on how destroyed my uterus is.

I breed cuteness!

I was actually THRILLED to wake up today and see that it is Cesarean Awareness Month. The awesome Gina wrote up an awesome post, April is Cesarean Awareness Month that I urge EVERYONE to check out (if you haven’t already).

As a lot of you know, I’ve had two c-sections, and regardless of their medical need, I suffer from PTSD and anxiety issues (not even mentioning the physical aspect) stemming from them. I wish I knew HOW to get what I want to say, out of my head so you all could understand how devastating a c-section can be.

Maybe someday I will find a way…

Ah back to the sleep thing, when the boyfriend and both kids are asleep, it’s very hard for me to stay awake! It’s like they are luring me to the nocturnal side!

I still need to come up with something for the Natural Parenting Blog Carnival, return a bunch of books to the library, try to go to a park (we have a variety that we go to), and figure out what to make for dinner. I am open to ANY dinner suggestions!

Must remember that it’s now Spring, warm weather, awesome outdoor stuff to do, and pretty nature! Now if only that could get me through the next 8 – 10 hours!

Lastly, please suggest 3 blogs I should go read! I have very little brain power to DO anything, but reading I can handle!
