Ok... so if you haven't heard... StumbleUpon is AWESOME!
First let me explain... You go to this website, click on "interests" you have, then click "Stumble" and it takes you to random websites based on your interests. AWESOME!
I thought this sounded like a glorious waste of time (which in some ways it is) but holy moly have I come across some really interesting links and fun games... Here are some examples...
HassleMe: This website will e-mail you at random times to remind you to do things you tell it to. Want to exercise more? Need to pay a bill? Just tell it your e-mail address and how often you need to do it and it will remind you!
AntCity: Feeling destructive? Need to blow off steam? Go to this site and burn people like you would ants with a magnifying glass.
BlackPeopleLoveUs: This site is just plain hilarious. It's a great way to illustrate how dumb white people can be sometimes.
Cool Umbrellas: That's just it. You would have never thought of these.
Lumosity: This site has a ton of free games and puzzles and helps you build your abilities based on your preferences.
Phobias: And this is just funny...
These are just a few of my favorites... you should check it out... it is really cool some of the stuff you'll come across.

Chubby Bubby and the Outside World
So, one of my favorite things to do right now is take my little sweet pea outside in the late afternoon (right after work). He LOVES being outside! If he is fussy... we can take him outside and he is in awe.
This makes me so excited to take him to the zoo!
Just yesterday I made plans to pick him up from SM's (the lady that watches him) and sit outside while my lasagna baked. Well of course, I get home, and Chubby Bubby is hungry. And he didn't get that nickname by waiting for a meal...
I knew if I fed him in the house, by the time he was done it'd be too late to go outside. So what did I do? I made the bottle, grabbed a burp rag, and we went outside anyway.
He is such a cutie! He got so distracted that he didn't even eat much (which is odd... again, given his nickname). He just looked around and stared at things... like the world was just something to be discovered...
Now I realize this picture he just looks kind of mad... but I couldn't work my phone right to get is "studious" look.
Tomorrow, Justin and I are shooting a wedding in Hot Springs which means Bubby gets to go stay at Grandma's for a while. Hopefully she'll have nice weather to take him outside in.

Its been a while
My good friend to be left unnamed started a blog recently and it reminded me... I have one of those. Its been a while since I updated it... but I have one. So much has happened since I last updated that there is no way for me to make up for lost time. So instead... I'm going to talk about my son...
We had a moment this morning. My grandma came into town today so instead of taking him to daycare early, I waited so we could have lunch with her. Our normal routine has him waking up around 6:30am, eating a little bit, changing his diaper/clothes, I pump, then we leave.
This morning, I wanted to go back to sleep. So I fed him around 6:30am, then I changed his diaper, and put him back down to sleep. I hopped in the shower and got as ready as I could before laying down to nap. I got up around 9:30am to feed him again and get him changed. He lost interest in eating so I thought it was safe to go pump. I put him in his carseat and go to the other room to pump.
And that's when the screaming began. He screamed bloody murder for the entire 15 minutes I was pumping. So I was thinking... he wasn't quite done eating and he was letting the world know about it.
No. I no more than walk back in the room and say, "Bubby... what's the deal?"
He looked up at me, gave me a really mean look, and stopped crying. He was apparently upset that I went in the other room. He literally didn't cry again until we were about to leave the restaurant and I had to change his diaper (He's not a fan of the diaper changing station in the bathroom... turns out... neither is momma.)
And that's my little chubbo story of the day.
