Pretty In Pink

So, I am using the new Blogger interface - we will see how we like it! My phone decided that it wanted to die today. Can't say that I am sad. I tried to use the camera this morning and it didn't want to take any pictures. I thought - I definitely need a new phone. I have been looking for a long time but couldn't make up my mind. Then, this afternoon, I dropped it one too many times and the screen went white and that was it. Ok. Time for a new phone. Off to Walmart I went and ten minutes later, I had a new droid for $1.05. Pretty awesome if I do say so myself!

Avery went to Gigi and Pops this morning, but since my camera phone didn't work, I have no pictures of them together. Boo. But I did take pictures of her today - she really looked like a big girl! I found a pink headband that is so cute and I've never seen it before - it must have been Soph's at one point but it was so cute, I am sad she hasn't been wearing it this whole time! She is wearing her little jeans and Keds. I got a pair as a hand me down from a girl at work and I have been waiting for her to fit in them! She is so cute. I can't believe tomorrow, she will be 10 months old!




These are such terrible pictures - but I am putting them on anyway! (This new phone takes great pictures, by the way!)


Have a great Friday! I am tired and going to B-E-D!

Why I am Pro Universal Healthcare and Changes to Our Healthcare System

Due to my recent proactivity with my credit and paying off debt, I decided to give the hospital a call where I was admitted about a month ago and ask about my bill. I wanted to make sure I didn't miss it in the mail and I wanted to get an idea of what I'd be paying for my stay. I get on the phone with the billing department and the woman is just as nice as can be, really. She was surprised I'd even called her, considering I didn't even have a bill yet. She told me she'd sent the bill over to my insurance to be approved and paid but they hadn't heard back yet. "Just out of curiosity," I asked, knowing I would be responsible for 20% of the final bill, "how much was it?" What I heard next shocked me.   "$61,000" she said.   I said, "$61,000? I was only in the hospital for a night and only on anti-biotics, you can't be serious! My daughter cost me less than a third of that to give birth to and I was in the hospital two nights!...

Some Changes...

We've been going through a bit of a transition at the Whitehead household the last month or so. I haven't really talked too much about it because I wasn't ready, to be honest. It's just a lot of change and I've been trying to figure it out in my head.   As of three weeks ago last Friday, I am no longer a full time work out of home employee.   I can't believe I just said that.   It's been the plan for several months now for me to go into real estate and it was always assumed I'd be doing that part time, while keeping my full time job. Plans kind of changed when Jason got his promotion. He'd always has a job that allowed him a lot of flexibility. In sales, especially after you've been in a position for a while, it just sort of happens that way. He could take Avery to daycare and pick her up, he could take her to doctor's appointments, he could even do chores around the house in the afternoon, while I was at work. I had some flexibi...

That "Thing" in That Basket Isn't a Baby, You Know That, Right?

I have had the most horrible case of writer's block lately! With that said, I saw this article on Babycenter and I just had to write something about it.   So, we've heard of the trend of eating the placenta after birth . We've heard of the trend of putting them in pill form to get the nutrients . But this? This to me, is just the craziest of them all.   As a group of beings on this planet, I've never seen any other mammal who evolves to get to a certain place, then de-evolves on purpose, to be more "natural." I am sure I am seriously about to put my foot in my mouth, I am sure there are (some) people out there that I might offend with my "closed-mindedness" on this topic. But this is just, well, ridiculous to me.   Basically, after the placenta comes out, instead of cutting the cord and detaching it from the baby, you leave the placenta on, they salt it to help with the decomp process, add rosemary (I am guessing for the smell?), then p...
