cake

my daugthers 1st birthday is coming up. & I'm looking for a cake. I want to make her a cake since I've always been interested in creating wonderful looking cakes.

I've found a couple of sites and the most recent one I found is this one, from maki and you can view her blog post about the cake here at in my element. Amazing! Brilliant! She is very talented and I am so very jealous. I so want to do this and I AM going to do this. We'll see if it turns out like this or not.

Cake - for my healthy baby though, makes me feel a little dizzy. I will make her this recipe and everyone else will get the unhealthy fatty version on the bottom layers. :)

Yum Yum Yum! I am so uber exciting. I'll post pictures after I make the thing.

my kids turned out fine

Let's talk about inlaws. Well - I can't really too much because I don't have any. But eventually some day they may become in-laws.

What is up with giving my child things I tell them not to?! I know this has happened to you before, don't lie.

Everyone does it- even my family, but they respect me a little more to not do it as much.

When I say I want my child to eat certain things, that doesn't mean give her something else! & if you introduce something to her by gosh TELL ME! That way I know if she is having an allergic reaction or if she isn't pooping for some odd reason- that may be the odd reason.

It's my turn to be a parent, you had yours so let me do the parenting and you can do the babysitting.

Wow, that came off really rude. I didn't mean it like thaatttt - well maybe I did. So buck up and tell them all this. Oh yea that'd turn out right know what they would say? my kids turned out fine. Or - we did that with our kids when they were younger. Or - she'll be fine! Or - (when talking about fancy healthy foods) we didn't have those growing up and we turned out fine.

Well let me tell you something!

There is a reason why people keep living longer! There is a reason why the death expectancy age goes up and up and up and up. & I firmly believe it's because of research - wow! you mean smoking this tobacco could really make you die sooner? "Back in the day" they thought there was nothing wrong with it- until smart people did research and found out the answers.

Well - smart people are doing research on what foods are good/bad for your baby and how to help them reach their full potential.

So therefore, there is a reason smart people get paid the big bucks to research and publish these things. I read them and I believe them and it's my daughter and that's that.

By all means I don't want to keep her away from the in-laws. I don't want them not to be around her or watch her - I just want them to respect my rules with my child. I'm sure they wouldn't have liked it if I was trying to feed their first born a mushroom at three months.

cheers.

Drinking

well where do I stand on that? it seems as though I'd enjoy myself a toddy or two. and, that seems right. but not all the time people.

Not every weekend - not more than a couple every other weekend. not really once a month.

Maybe it's because I had a child and she made me realize that there are more to things in life? idk.

I've seen what it does to people - college parties, old men at bars, old women at bars pretending their young woman. & it just doesn't fit right with me. for some odd reason, I don't think that something that makes you think and act differently can be good for your body?

hmm, cheers.

Yummy

Healthy baby food. All mothers want it for their children. I look to this site for guidance. I absolutely love it. Do I know if this is site is totally creditable and everything is exactly right? no. but I enjoy reading it and I trust it.

Businesses can do as much ads as they want for a product on TV or bill boards or whatever and what I hear from another mom will be more important. If a commercial tells me a product is wonderful well whoopdedo good for them. That's why they hire people to market and advertise their product - they aren't going to tell me if children have broken out in hives, they aren't going to tell me if kids choke on their products.

Word of mouth. so pass along my blog. :)

Reality

No I don’t give my daugther alocohol. No I don’t give her formula on the rocks. But it was classy and catchy enough to get your eye. & who wouldn’t want to drive traffic to their site?
Reality is I’m 20. I have a 1 year old daughter Abigail and no it wasn’t planned. Yes I was in college and woah suprise. Yes we’re still together and no we’re not engaged. We just recently purchased a house, so I can join the %35 percent of americans that are losing their homes. yay me.
Do I still have a life? of course I do. here with you. Do I still have the love and support of my family? Yes. Did an unexpected pregnancy ruin my life? hell no it’s just started. buckle up.
