  2. I'm pretty sure that on Wednesday, I had two Cokes, which pushed me over the recommended guidelines for caffeine in pregnant women. I can't really recall because I was so 'effing tired.

  4. So, I have this rule about no screen time except on the weekends. Yeah, that rule was violated so often this week, I think it might actually press charges.

  5. Two more words: Panchero’s burrito.
