Ch-Ch-Changes

Gentlemen readers might want to skip over this one : )

Ever since I can remember I have prayed for bigger boobs. My mother and sister were both blessed; overly blessed in my opinion and I was NOT. For a long time I said that by the time I was 25 if I was still an A cup I would get a boob job. Well, when 25 rolled around, I realized that boob jobs are dangerous, expensive and not really something I wanted to do at the time. Then my thoughts turned to motherhood. I told myself that I would grow some boobs once I got pregnant and so my NEW prayer became "please let them stick around after I have a baby." I guess I need to be a little more specific when praying because I got EXACTLY what I asked for but not at all what I wanted. They grew and grew and grew and after Ari was born they stuck around. The only problem is that the shape changed. They went from full, round, high beautiful breasts to empty, dangling boobies. Technically they are bigger then what I had pre-preggers but who would know that fact seeing as how they seem to be in a race to reach my bellybutton. Now, I am trying to cope with these changes and find a bra that makes me feel normal again. I stumbled across this website that walks you through how to measure yourself so that you can find the perfect fit bra. I haven't gone shopping yet, but I wanted to share the site with everyone as soon as possible. Ladies, we don't have to just accept these changes; let's lift these suckers up where they belong!!

Day of REST?

Well, finals are finally over and today is my first day OFF. Ari is clean and fed, I have had my own breakfast and now my winter break can begin! First I am going to catch up on my blogging, then do a little cleaning and a load of laundry. After that I will do some stretches/playing with Ari before I change her and then its nap time for her. While she naps I will do a quick run on the treadmill and take a shower. Then when she gets up I will change and feed her. Then we will load up the car and head out to do some Christmas shopping. While shopping I will entertain Ari with biter biscuits, puffs and milk. Then we will head over to the grocery store to grab a few items. Again I will entertain Ari there with biscuits, puffs and milk. Next we'll swing through CVS to grab a Rx and then head home where I will unload Ari and the groceries, occupy Ari with toys while I put the groceries away, PEE, then hopefully put Ari down for another nap after I change her. While she sleeps I will pull out the Christmas tree and decorations and haul them upstairs from the garage where I will start putting the tree together. When Ari wakes up I will stop what I'm doing and play on the floor with her for a bit before starting dinner. Then I will change, feed and clean Ari and finish getting dinner for mommy and daddy ready. Then when daddy gets home we will eat dinner then give Ari a bath. After bath time I will get her dressed for bed and hand her off to daddy for the bed time bottle. Finally, I will head back to the Christmas tree to finish putting it together, then clean up dinner and other dishes from the day then sit down and think about ways I will REST again tomorrow. Time to begin!! I LOVE time off : )

HELP!! crawling 9 mo old doesn't understand the word NO!!

My daughter Ari has been crawling for about 2 weeks now and she is just now gaining enough confidence to crawl off into other rooms that I am not in at the time. WELL, when she starts to get into something she shouldn't, I say "NO" and then "we don't play with that or come over here" and then she goes for it again and I say "stop that Ari" and she stops, looks at me, smiles and then goes right back to what she was doing. What am I supposed to do? My "angry" tone is meaningless apparently. It gets her attention but it makes her laugh. When I remove her from the situation she gets upset momentarily, but as soon as that passes, she goes right back to the scene of the crime. I don't want to "pop" her on her hand or anything yet; it's too early I think, but I am at a loss as to what to do discipline-wise.

HELP!!!!! .
