Best Dream Ever

Sometimes I remember my dreams. Sometimes I remember bits and pieces. In the middle of this dream, I realized I was dreaming. And told myself to just roll with it.

I was in the car with the hubby when Ron and Don announced a contest to win a million dollars. And hubby said to call in... just to do it. I did and we won.

And then I didn't really 'believe' it. I wanted to have the money in hand before I believed it. We got the money and this was when I realized it was a dream. I told my husband that I wanted a third child and that we were going to go to Monaco. Monaco is one of our dream trips. And we paid off all our debt.

A girl can dream...

back to work

I am officially back to work after 15 weeks off with my little girl. And the return to work this time is rough. My Mom is here to help take care of both girls, but my little spit fire will not take a bottle.

So, I failed to head the warnings from the wonderful hubby that we should give itty bitty more bottles. I thought I was doing the right thing for her and I by establishing an on-demand breastfeeding scenario. So, I basically had given itty bitty 2 bottles in three months.

Which leads us to the screaming, face scratching, hair pulling, bottle strike for 11 hours on my work days. We have tried different people, different bottles, different nipples, sippy cups, swaddling, distraction and most techniques we could think of. I have called the lactation consultant and tried her ideas to no avail.

So, each work day is a dreaded, stressful day for all members of the household.

cloth diapers

last night ryan put natalie in a paper diaper because her cloth ones were not completely dry and guess what... it leaked. :S reason #2 I love cloth diapers... less leaks.
