Got gloves today

Bec and Jerry went to Wal mart, where they got my prescription for Reglan, which they went ahead and gave me a refill on, yay!  They also went to the dollar tree where they got me gloves, so now I can smother my hands in Aquaphor and cover them with gloves so I don’t get it everywhere.  And they’re cotton, and SO soft… my hands are feeling much better since I bought that stuff.  The gloves will help a lot.  Now if I can just get them to stop itching all together!  They’re still a little dry, too.  It may take some time to get them completely healed. 

I’ve been bidding on Barbie doll clothes on Ebay with free shipping, but I keep getting outbid.  I’m not sure what it’s going to take, but I’m going to keep bidding until I get some clothes to give as presents.  It may take awhile, lol.  I’m not really wanting to spend a whole lot of money on this.  I’ll have to do some Sunday morning shopping, that’s when all the best deals are.

Wow, 9 p.m.  Time flies on ebay.

Today went by in a blur.  Sammi was not a happy camper for most of it, so I spent a lot of time consoling her.  Alex… she can roll from her back to her front now, and so was on the bed trying to get Shabree’s book by rolling herself over to grab it.  It was good to see that.  Now if only she’ll start crawling.  I can’t wait to see that.

Oh, ouch… back is achy.  I’m also kinda hungry… may have to go get a snack of some sort.  I made apple and peanut butter "sandwiches" today, where the apple slices serve as the "bread"  Shabree thought they were pretty good, but Syd wouldn’t even try them.  Sammi was ok with them too.  I am starting to wish Alex would get some teeth already!  Boy, there isn’t ANYTHING she’s not behind on, is there?  LOL…  just kidding.  She’s actually "talking" which is just a jabber of course, and using her pincer grasp, and for the most part, she seems very bright and happy.

Think I’d better post and go check on her actually.  I THINK she fell asleep, but since I’m not sure…

 

Oh, I almost forgot, I’m supposed to email Dr Newman about the breast feeding, see if he’s got any advice.  His office called, and suggested making sure her latch is correct, which I THINK it is (she often latches herself on, but then she moves so much, that she may be getting it wrong… lately she likes to get on her tummy and go at them from that angle… which is a little weird, but if it works for her…  LOL.. she really does make me giggle with her LOVE of breast feeding.)

I’ll have to remember to do that.

I can’t believe how bit Sammy has gotten from your pix the other day. They grow SO fast.

My hands have been uber dry lately, and I have been lathering on my Udder cream (haha). It works miracles.

I’m sitting here laughing out loud to myself trying to figure out the position that Alex is in trying to get into to get to the breast. It sounds hysterical! I’ll have to send you a couple of pictures tomorrow. I wanted to frame these pictures kinda special but I didn’t want to scrap them, so I just used my 50% off coupons from Michael’s to get some great frames and used some ribbon and stickers and brads, and embellished them. Very pretty. On the advice of KittyGotKlaws, I invested in the Staedtler “Lumocolor” pens. I adore them! I was telling her I’m a big Sharpie’s whore but I really, really need something for journalling in the scrapbooks that won’t run through. Sharpie’s is coming out with them, but slowly. Right now they only have black. But these new pens…*is dreamy and laughs because I’m shopping for them already in two other Windows and checks to see if Staedtler has other products. Talk to you soon. I’ll have to call you again when I’m going on one of my marathon, I mean, longer than normal, shopping trips to Michael’s. *Laughs*
