Just trying to figure out how to handle life's challenges and share them with the world. Check out my blog for more

@9NEWS your captions this morning are HORRIBLE! They usually have their flaws and missing pieces on the news but today I’ve seen SO many errors!

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ClevelandMomma Or when you are holding your kid and feel something dripping on your leg. (NEVER a good thing) Turns our it isn’t the kid leaking from his diaper, it is you! ...after you soaked through your bra...

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ClevelandMomma Nothing like getting the little one to sleep and getting up to hear hubby ask, “Are you leaking?!”

And then realize why your boob felt so wet...

The original #paleo #nobake #protein bites! 😂 🐓 🐣

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

Sorry, 6 squares of TP.

And now I’m up with a little boy who apparently just needs snuggles to sleep.

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

Me washing bottles after pumping.

Hubby: Why are you still up?
Me: I’m not done yet.
H: sighs. walks by diapers to go to LOs room

I put diapers away
skip PT exercises
move dog toys
go to the bathroom
find 2 pieces of TP
go get TP
brush teeth
change to pjs

Now I can go to bed.

Overheard on Hubby’s conference call: “Sorry I got distracted, can you repeat...”
Me: More like you fell asleep!

Now to go nap while being lulled by the digital presentation in the other room.

Things nobody tells you...

When you're holding your kid and you feel something dripping on your leg you will panic!

Turns out it wasn't coming from the kid... it was my boob. Guess it is time to pump...#momlife #exclusivelypumping #breastfeeding #breastmilk

[Thoughts of Dog @dog_feelings]

it is the human’s first time trying to change the world. and they are exhausted. so while they rest for a little bit. i have stolen their sign. and will trot proudly around the house with it. until they are ready. to fight again

@ForbesBetter Then moms mix frozen milk with the fresh for when they have to dig into their freezer stash. The pitcher method allows for easy mixing so an exact bottle amount per bag isn’t needed. After calculating how much of a stash I want😳 every bag is getting 6 oz if I can. Need space!

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ForbesBetter I use my pumping bottles to measure out the ounces before freezing. I was sad the bag lies.

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ForbesBetter Pitcher method is all pumped milk is combined through the day in a pitcher then at night put into bottles for the next day and the rest frozen. I create the next bottle and the rest goes into the container (a blender bottle lol) and at night I freeze the left over.

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ForbesBetter I did 3oz based on bag and only had 2 when I thawed (was a little quick to start a stash)

Have you heard of the pitcher method?

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

@ForbesBetter It is just the cutest thing!

[The Inventive Fox @theinventivefox]

Thinking of planning a trip and need help. Complete the sentence:

When #camping with a 3 mth old you must...

@ForbesBetter We went to the store and post office yesterday and he got hungry. I decided to try nursing instead of the bottle and it worked! So we have nursed a few more times.

Still pumping and it has increased my supply so far!
