Disney in December!

I have never been to Disney during the holidays. That is one thing that is still on my bucket list. One day it will happen…I hope! So for my Disney December photo I decided to go with one of my favorite ornaments from my tree! It was hard to choose though…I have an awful lot of Disney ones!

What part of Disney do you think of once December hits?? Link up and let us know!

I Caught Santa!

I have come across a really neat website that lets you add Santa or Rudolph into your pictures! I can’t wait to use this when Munch is a little older. The website is icaughtsanta.com and it is adorable.

It was very easy to use and took only a few minutes! There are also a lot of different poses you can add of Santa so he should be able to fit into most pictures. You can also add Rudolph! He can appear on his own in snow as I have done here or with Santa.

Use code #SantaShare to add Santa to your photos free through December 10, 2013. See? So there is no excuse not to add Santa to your tree!

Also there is a iCaughtSanta.com 2013 Customer Appreciation Contest via Rafflecopter (iPad Air + Amazon, Visa or Starbucks Giftcards) Over $1,500 in prizes! Enter at http://www.iCaughtSanta.com

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

The Stockings Were Hung...

We got almost all of our Christmas decorations up! I am obsessed. I plan to make quite a few more before the season is through but here is some of what we’ve done this year!

I added winter stickers/cut outs to the picture frames (Also, that pesky elf got us!)

A toilet paper snowman!

And hanging candy canes from the window valance.

 

I also converted the clothespin wreath I made into just red and white to hold Christmas cards. I love it!

 

Oh, and here’s a cute picture of Munch. Because…well…she’s adorable.

Well I am a Queen afterall...

Okay so the only Disney related Q thing I could think of was Queen. ...so sue me!

Baby Dies During Breastfeeding Due to Mothers Negligence and Intoxication

I’m going to try not to rip this woman apart no matter how much I'd like to. I am also going to try not to rip the commenter who calls herself Tori apart no matter how much I would like to.

I’m going to simply say my heart aches for her and her little one. I’m not quite sure why anyone who knew they would be drinking or are drinking would think they could care for their infant. Congrats to her for breastfeeding. However, please have someone else watch over your precious baby while you are unable.

As for you Tori, how dare you think we are talking poorly on this woman because she is a single black mother. That is not the point of this article. The point is a precious babe is gone because of the ignorance of the mother. Also. You do not know her or her situation so who are you to talk if she is poor/rich/single/married/etc.? If that is the case you should not be drinking. You should be caring for your child(ren) and trying for the life of you to better your life and theirs. If you're stressed I am pretty sure there are some better options out there. Oh there is also a thing called self control. Maybe if your kid is around you should only have one of those drinks. YOU ARE AN ADULT. YOU ARE A PARENT. BE RESPONSIBLE. I'm sorry Tori but the poverty and race card that you would love this article to focus on is not the point.

Also. The title isn't all that misleading if you read it correctly. The baby did die during breastfeeding. The mother passed out while breastfeeding. It doesn't say the baby died from the breast milk or from the feeding, just during. It makes me mad that that is what you have to nit pick on this article for.

There. That’s my thoughts. And apparently I kind of did go off a little. But people are dumb. Read the full article here and let me know your thoughts and reactions.

Welcome November!

Todays Wordless Wednesday is focused on November! Here's what I've got...

I can't wait to see what you've got! Link up and share the Disney memories!

Breastfeeding Mother Charged with Contempt

I read this news article the other day and I am so very very torn on the subject. I’m sure I’ll get flamed for whatever I have to say but I can honestly see both sides of this story. It’s hard when your baby is breastfed and a difficult child. I get that. I have gone through a time when she didn’t want the bottle. She would scream and put up a fight. 

But listen. If your child is under 6 months old then yes, fine, by all means, they are suggesting waiting on introducing solids, you should be able to get out of jury duty. However, in this case, your child is 7 months old. Therefore said child should be able to (and should!) be having some sort of solids. So you are telling me they can’t have some solids in between you nursing before going in, during breaks, and after jury duty? You are just being lazy. It’s your civil duty as a citizen. You are also telling me that you have NO ONE who is willing to help you out for a day and watch your little one? Maybe I am just blessed by people around me but it seems a little farfetched to me that there is no one available to help you out for a day. I’m sure someone would love spending time with your little one. You were already pardoned once so just bite the bullet this time. It seems like a whole lot of excuses going on here.

I’m not sure why this aggravates me quite as much as it does but arg. Also, I’m sure I don’t know all the details. There could be a very understandable explanation but as of right now, I really just don’t get it.

I’ve decided October is officially Munchtober in this house and I’m trying to take a fall pic every day of her. What are your favorite things about fall? I’ve been trying to generate some ideas.

• Pumpkins
• Apples
• Apple Cider
• Candy Corn
• Halloween
• Farms
• Pies
• Hay bales
• Tractors
• Mums

So I've been posting them daily on Instagram ( peacedancelove) Follow me! I'd love to see your fall inspired pics as well!

Zzzzzz....

I just don’t get it. I’m tired. I’m exhausted. I can’t do anything. I accidentally fall asleep during her naps or lack thereof all the time and I get nothing done. I work at night way past her bedtime so most nights I don’t get to bed till closer to midnight. I almost feel like we’ve tried it all. Anyone else experience this sudden want to not sleep? She was doing fine and was sleeping great through the night. It was awesome! Tell me all your baby sleep secrets. …please? She is so tired but just screams and screams. I don’t know what to do. I feel so helpless. I don’t know how to fix it and to make her happy. Is it normal for an 8 month old to be like this? She’s so darn cute it makes me sad to see her so upset. I guess I just wanted to vent. And tell you I'm still alive and still enjoy blogging (of course) so hopefully (If she decides sleep is not the enemy) you'll be seeing me a whole lot more again. Yay!
