I came across this survey on Alyssa’s blog, and since I’m a huge fan of surveys…I had to partake.

Current Book(s):
Honestly, I’m totally lacking in reading. ๐ฆ I hate that. I love a good book, but my time has been occupied on other things right now. BUT, I did just read ‘Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child‘ & cannot recommend it enough for Moms & Moms to be! It has helped us so much. G slept NINE, yes 9!, hours the other night.
Current Music:
LOVING the song ‘Thrift Shop.’ I played it about three times on my long run – G & I did a 15K (9.3 miles) – and we knocked it out in 1 hour & 16 minutes…I definitely think listening to this song helped…I was so pumped up. Haha!
Current Guilty Pleasure:
Frozen yogurt. All the time. Love the stuff. Or this light ice cream…
Current Nail Color:
Essie. To buy or not to buy. (it’s hard to tell, but it’s a light purple)
Current Drink:
Water. Lots of it!
Current Food:
Not eating as I type this, but I ate lunch a little while ago- which was a smoothie with spinach…again with a side of Popcorners.
They are so good! They taste like popcorn, but are in the shape of a chip. My Mom & I saw them while we were at BJ’s, the wholesale club) this weekend, so we decided to try them. SO GLAD WE DID! If you see them while you are out, I highly recommend them.
Current Favorite Show:
Modern Family. The New Normal. I have a few, but I just LOVE those two shows. I can’t get enough.
Anyone else absolutely adore Sofia Vergara?!
CAN’T. GET. ENOUGH.
Current Wish List:
The Ergo carrier.
Current needs: (this is where the ‘Can You Help Me?’ comes in)
My lovely daughter to take a bottle. Can anyone help me?? I’m still exclusively breastfeeding, just pumping too. We had her used to a bottle for the first month of her life, she took it perfectly. Then during the month of December we didn’t really give her a bottle at all. Just with the holidays, it was easier just to breast feed. Well, LESSON LEARNED. If we do have a second child, we will make sure we stick to at least a bottle a day! This will save us in the long run.
But now Gabriella REFUSES a bottle. I mean it’s BAD. She SCREAMS when we try to give her one, she gets herself so worked up…to almost where she hyperventilates. I’ve tried three types of bottles: Dr. Brown’s, Tommee Tippee, & Playtex (the one with the brown nipple, so it’s more natural). Now I have been reading about the Medela Calma, the new bottle that’s supposed to be ideal for breastfed babies…but I’m still not sure if I should spend $20 on a bottle that cannot be returned if she doesn’t like it. (and $20 is for ONE bottle) I’m willing to do it, IF I can get some kind of feedback on it. But at this point I don’t think it’s the bottle…it’s just she doesn’t want to take a bottle in general.
We have also tried other people giving her a bottle, like Craig instead of myself. Or Craig’s Mom or my Mom…just so she won’t see me and assume she is going to breast feed…and babies can smell your milk I believe up to 20 feet away. (they are like little dogs- haha!)
ANY suggestions on bottles or in general, PLEASE let me know!!!!!! PLEASE ๐
Current Bane of My Existence:
Oh goodness, I don’t know if I have anything that I can think of right now. …well, except now I’m kicking myself for not keeping up with the bottle a day
Current Celebrity Crush:
Oh this is easy…it’s always Mark Wahlberg.
Current Indulgence:
Am I allowed to say frozen yogurt again?! ๐ My nightly frozen yogurt is a daily indulgence…and I love it.
Current Blessing:
Oh, this is even easier.
These two. My WHOLE world.
Current Outfit:
Ha…it’s always gym clothes. Always. Now that I work from home it’s weird for me to dress in anything else. Can’t say that I mind ๐
Current Excitement:
Going to Maryland in a few weeks!!!! It’s my nephew’s 1st birthday & my brother in law & sister in law’s 30th birthdays!! I.CANNOT.WAIT! G will finally get to meet her cousin & aunt & uncle!
