Macy’s Mom

I’m back to work..Gavin’s been weaned!  I would have continued to nurse if Gavin would have co-operated!  So now I’ve entered the world of formula and the coveted coupon checks!  We use Enfamil.  I got some Enfamil checks when Gavin was born..along with a ton of Similac and Nestle.  I went online to Craigslist and posted to see if anyone wanted to trade checks..Similac for Enfamil…I managed to get a contact before we were red-flagged by Craigslist.  And so the coupon trading has begun!

Last summer..we had a constipation drama/comedy. Macy, who never gets enough roughage..couldn’t poopy. “whaaa!!! my poopy won’t come out..whaa..it hurts..it’s too big..whaa..” During this whole drama..I plugged in a few “that’s why you should eat your vegatable/drink more water.” (and anything else I thought she might actually hear for a change!) This went on for what felt like hours! (actual time..about 20 minutes) “I want my Daddy!” So, we ended up calling daddy at work..Daddy suggested I read her a book. Daddy sure is brilliant! I read..Macy calmed down..the humongous poopy came out! Hhmmm..so that’s why people read on the potty…
