Breakfast Cereal Review:
Fruity Cheerios: I tried these because I had a coupon. I don’t normally do that – usually I clip coupons for the products I already use. But I was intrigued by Fruity Cheerios because I thought it might have just a touch of sweetness, like Honey Nut Cheerios, which rule. I have been duped by Cheerios before – hello, disgusting Yogurt Cheerios – so I was wary. And I had good reason to be. Fruity Cheerios go way over the top with the sugar, in such a way that you really just want to toss your bowl aside and reach for the Froot Loops or the Trix. Don’t try to tell me I’m eating a healthy cereal that tastes great. There’s no point in indulging if you’re not going to go all the way. Fruity Cheerios has a weird aftertaste, too. Bleah. Don’t bother with this one.

Now the rest of today’s story.
Yesterday I had cramps from 1:15 to 4:15 pretty steadily, then off and on until I feel asleep after 10pm. They didn’t feel like contractions so I wasn’t really alarmed. But during my nightly wakings they got me thinking what if? So this morning I had Stewart haul some boxes down from the rafters in the garage and I’ve been washing, scrubbing, and disinfecting the infant car seats, (we have 2) the bouncy seat, and the swing. All the essentials hardware for having a newborn in the house. Next week I’ll get out the breast pump and make sure everything’s clean and shiny because I just can’t wait to put vacuum pressure on my nipples. Hooray!
We’re not there yet. But I did have to make a trip down into the basement to get the maternity clothes. Some of which we still can’t find.
But I was looking down at the car seat, swing, and a few other accessories that I’ll be headed back for in a while.
And I put them near the front.
How many weeks are you now?
I am with you on the cheerios thing. Stick with the original, all the others pale (and usually don’t taste all that great.)
