Can I have some?

welcome to my blog.

a place to post. a place to eat oreos. a place to vent. a place to heal.

i started this blog so i could use a different outlet besides munching on fattening oreos. as if that has done any good... *mind wanders to oreo package in the house...*

then i realized that oreos can be semi symbolic. if you are are that crazy about oreos that is. which... i am.

eating oreos is therapeutic for me. when i am struggling or when i need a pick me up. they have chocolate. and sugar. both of which help lift my mood. not to mention that i eat them soaked with milk, which is my miracle drink.

i post my posts to not only get stuff out. there may be people who read my blog who have been in the same kind of situations as i have. i hope reading them and knowing that others have gone through things like i have, will be to you what eating oreos does to me.


and yes. i didn't capitalize anything in here. i just felt like it. deal with it.


munch up.

Baby stats

Ok so here we go.

Baby's stats are thus:

9 lbs. 11 oz. (almost a whole pound more than his birth weight!!!)
21 inches
37.8 head circumference
And I think the doctor said he was in the 75 percentile.

Baby is doing great. The doctor said (about the choking thing...) that Baby just might be getting too big a mouthful when the let-down occurs. He did give me other options that would require testing, but he said that wouldn't really be necessary unless Baby really seemed to struggle and if it occurred more often, if he struggles so long he turns color, and/or if he is gasping for breath when he isn't eating. None of which are happening now.

Great! Glad to know the choking thing will probably go away on its own.

You are GREAT!

Isn't it amazing how fast babies gain weight?! I am always surprised. I'm glad things are going well.
