2 more things I like abt Tweetie 2: yr following username directory plus recent hashtag list.
Blaming 2ay’s exhaustion on 4 yr old who refused 2 pick up a balloon, cried & then hit me. I’m proud I didn’t yell back bt its exhausting.
Also had a grt conversation about an important project that I wasn’t sure was going to happen!
Had a great conversation w/ some1 who works at WIC who encouraged me to apply for peer counseling job even tho… #breastfeeding
What do YOU do when your preschooler hits you, repeatedly? (I know she was upset, told her we don’t hit any1, made her sit & calm down.)
… official head of WIC in my state said they prefer to hire from the community, those who speak Spanish, have been on WIC #breastfeeding
It’s hard pulling Anya away from the daycare at our gym. She loves the “kids’ gym.” http://yfrog.com/3oag9ej
Anya always wants to play w this @leapfrog toy whenever we’re at @bnbooks (hint to grandma!) http://yfrog.com/0w66lj
Overheard on NPR segment on dinner parties: Cloth napkins say I care enough about you to do laundry. (#greenisgood)
#34wks visit to OB told us that Baby Brother is in head-down position - woo hoo!
I’m quoted in the Oct issue of @Earnshaws about #babywearing! (page 31)
Can’t believe I have to rush my daughter 2 eat her ice cream so we won’t be late 4 her gymnastics class. Always running late :(
Bought the Medela Maternity Support Belt (http://bit.ly/41XHIX) as recommended by some tweeps. Feeling better already! Thanks! #34wks

Baby Brother goes wild
I recorded this video last night of my son rearranging himself in my uterus. This is the second time I’ve been pregnant but I still cannot get over the feeling of having another living person in my body. Of course, the fact that Baby Brother is 3-5 times more active than Anya makes for a completely different experience. He’s not just a passenger — he’s actively sharing my...

Do you have a customer loyalty program? What features worked best for you? Worked the least?
They’re going to talk about “just unhealthy yr fave bkfst cereals can be” on the TodayShow. Will they lose sponsors?
They’re showing Frosted Flakes, Capn Crunch, Cocoa Crispies. Joy Bauer says they’re dessert & a bad way to start yr kid’s day.
Cheerios are ok!
She says Bkfst cereals should have <3g fiber, <8g sugar, ingredients shld have whole oats or bran as 1st item.
I’d def buy this Kashi U cereal. The currants are v tart, flakes don’t taste like cardboard, just barely sweet enough, but I like it!
Time to eat some Sugar Smacks! Jk! Actually Kashi Black Currants & Walnuts 7 grain flakes & granola cereal their PR sent me. Tasty or no?

Ever used a maternity support girdle? Think it will help w discomfort under my #33wks pregnant belly? Will ask OB on Thu but in the meantime
I really appreciate that my mom watched Anya today but mad she let her take a loooong late-pm nap that has her wide awake at 10 pm.
