NaBloPoMo Commences

Sound the bells and whistles! NaBloPoMo has begun! Are you ready for my groundbreaking first post of the month?

Don’t hold your breath.

My mind is spinning and I’m hoping that you all can help me out.

#1 – Something’s up with the twins. They are hurting again and I am starting to feel achy all over. This is NOT good considering I am headed to Mexico in 5 days. I think it’s thrush although Wito has no sign of it.

#2 – Wito hasn’t pooped since Sunday. I fed him formula two days ago during an afternoon feed (to give the nips a rest, if ya know what I mean) and I am now convinced that formula is the Devil Incarnate and has blocked my son’s intestines indefinitely. I know they say anywhere within a week is normal, but should I be concerned?

#3 – Wito woke up 4 times last night, which is completely unlike him. Is #2 to blame?

#4 – Wito hates tummy time and screams like a banshee if put him on his stomach. Any tips out there for easing the process? I’ve tried the boppy, propping him up on his hands, lying on the floor and dangling toys in front of him. Any suggestions?

That’s all I’ve got, peeps. Suggestions and comments would be appreciated so I can get rid of the bad Chi and start writing again.

*UPDATE* AHA! I KNEW THE MINUTE I POSTED THIS ENTRY HE WOULD POOP. TAKE THAT CONSTIPATION GODS! I’M TRICKY LIKE THAT! You can ignore #2.

A Peace Treaty

You know what cures any first-time parenting freakouts (besides tons of fabulous comments from you all)?

A trip to the San Francisco Fall Antiques Show!

Now, aren’t we just the picture of marital bliss? No piss-poor attitudes! Love all around!

Also, our hotel room has many mirrors. Wito is utterly intrigued.

Have a great weekend!
