    My Little Buffalo

I have no creative title for this because Harrison just puked in my mouth.

My child threw up in my mouth today. You read that correctly. MY CHILD.  THREW UP. IN MY MOUTH. It started off so sweetly innocent.  He sat on the bed, shaking a sock happily while I folded laundry & I got the urge to learn over to play with him.  So I did.  Because I [...]

Murphey's Law of baby vomit.

CLOSED Y’all…I’m dying.  DYING of laughter.  If you have not gone through & read the vomit stories, PLEASE DO IT on this lovely Friday afternoon.  It is so worth it & will make you smile.  People with vomit in their mouths.  Someone compared the taste of Alimentum to “Tossing A Salad.”  & poor Amy got [...]

Whose child is this?!

Horrible picture quality for THE MOST AWESOME REASONS EVER: I was playing with my kid. He was laughing up a storm & kicking his feet like mad. In turn, I was laughing with him, making it impossible to hold the camera steady. I was desperate to find an angle that showed off his amazing dimple, [...]

What it feels like when Satan lives in your esophagus.

I won’t say that I reached a breaking point yesterday – but I was teetering on it.  In stilettos. Do you know what it’s like when your child wakes up screaming at 6:30am?  & by 11am, you’re shaking.  SHAKING.  Because as over-stimulated as your child feels, you’ve had high-pitched shrieking invading your every thought for [...]

I think I should invest in some Bose sound-blocking headphones.

We had an awesome week following the switch to soy formula & Prilosec.  He was content, smiling, happy.  I was thisclose to writing a post about how my ovaries were itching to procreate again (OH MY GOD).  But now he’s back to screaming his bloody head off every waking moment.  Refusing the bottle because he’s [...]

My day sucked. But you know what sucks more? A Dyson.

Reasons My Day Sucked, by Blair.  As an alternative to a written composition by Ralphie Parker. 1.  At 7:15am, Harrison threw up all over me mid-bottle.  I’m talking vomit over his head, onto my arm, down my leg, onto the couch.  & then he started crying. 2.  He screamed the entire morning.  Regardless of full belly, [...]

Zantac isn't just for old folks. But Blair's biting hate can be.

Harrison has reflux. If that was not BLINDINGLY OBVIOUS TO EVERYONE BUT HIS MOTHER. On Friday, I sat in Dr. Hottie’s office on a cold vinyl bench, running through a list of reflux symptoms as he cauterized Harrison’s belly button (because oozing gold funk is not attractive). We chatted about spit-up, coughing, the hours-long screaming [...]
