Drool, poop, spit up, etc

There are many things that come out of a baby out of different holes.  Drool and spit up/throw up out of the mouth and pee and poop out of the other end. Drool is the most disgusting. For some reason the 7 month old baby decides to drool and stick his hands in his mouth and then rubs it all over my face.  He does it when he's having his bottle. He knows he's laying on one arm and the other is holding the bottle. It's not like the pee or pope end up on me. The spit up does sometimes but that doesn't bother me as much as drool.  Maybe because the drool goes on for months and months all the time. 

Wrestling while changing or feeding the baby

When did changing or feeding a baby become a sport?  Diaper changes become a mess.  The pants come off ok.  Once the tabs are loose on the diaper he's off and rolling and army crawling.  Hello Bubba Boy there's poop on your butt.  So it comes to the childless female holding the baby down gently with one hand while trying to clean poop with the other.  It gets done and we have both had a workout.

Then it is time to eat.  Yea you know the bottle with the formula.  If he's not craning his neck to see the dog, what is going on outside, or watching Yo Gabba Gabba, he's touching my face, poking me in the eye, or trying to dig for gold in my nose.  Hey that's my gold up there Bubs.  You'll get some when I pick my own nose and give it to you.

Most days I feel Bubba Boy has won the Gold for wrestling.  Other days it's me.  I just have to think like a 7 month old boy instead of a 43 year old female.  No problem.

Have a great weekend.

Punching and kicking the polar vortex in the knees

I feel like I'm stuck in a polar vortex hole and it won't let me out. I keep kicking it in the knees but nothing. I jump and punch it in the knees. Nothing. But I'm short so kicking and punching have the same affect.

All this kicking and punching had gotten be stuck in a pile of snow. The snow has no knees so I cannot kick or punch. So I just head butt it. That causes brain freeze. 

I think I just stay in this snow pile until July.  Because by then it'll melt. 

The mailings and the baby

Oh yea, it gets interesting when trying to put together mailings for candles and the baby is awake.  My main focus is the baby of course, but there are times when he is just playing by himself with his toys. So I bring out my things and start stuffing envelopes.  Of course, he notices and rolls his happy cute little drool filled face over and drools all over, then rolls all over the papers.  Then the dog realizes whats going on and decides to get in on the action and is walking over the baby onto the envelopes.  It turns into a hot mess.  Well, not really because it is too cute to be a hot mess when little old me is the childless babysitter, who happens to love kids.  Go figure

So, now that I have had to call all my candle customers and explain that it was not me that drooled all over the invites, I will only deal with paper when the drool monster is asleep and the dog is chewing on a bone or a slipper.

Bridal expo and candles

This past weekend I was a vendor at a bridal expo. I love going events. I always have so much fun. Here are some pictures of my displays. While I didn't sell anything I did make contacts. Making contacts is just as good as selling something. Because one never knows what will come out of the contacts. 

Oldies but goodies

  

I'm not quite sure what our parents were thinking. I'm bald and my cousin looks like she's were drapes in the first one. We both looks like boys but I'm in a dress. At least it looks like one. 

I can't believe they took us out looking like that. If I had me as a kid I would have bought a wig it on the baby. 

I survived the old people, teenagers, the little people and the baby

Somehow I survived the holidays with the old people, teenagers, little people, and the baby.  The old people and teenagers just wanted to shop and picked the mall that was so busy you couldn't even walk in. The little people just wanted to make rainbow loom bracelets and play Mario Kart. They baby well he's just a baby and just ate, slept, and pooped.
