Wednesday, March 19th, 2008TheMiddleChild had some really severe diaper rashes when she was an infant. It started almost as soon as we brought her home. Eventually after trying a bunch of different diaper rash cremes, her pediatrician suggested Triple Paste. I kid you not, this stuff is amazing- her rash cleared up almost instantly with [...]
I was tagged

When kids get too quiet…
Saturday, March 15th, 2008I was nursing TheYoungest in the family room.It was too quiet in basement.

Works For Me Wednesday - “Egg McMuffin” Frying Pan
Tuesday, March 11th, 2008When I was pregnant with TheMiddleChild, I went through a craving for Egg McMuffins. Yeah, yeah, I know, not the healthiest craving out there. (Does it help that I craved oranges with TheOldest?) Since TheOldest was only 4 months when I was shockingly pregnant again (it is all LushMan’s fault), I had [...]
What are they thinking?
Tuesday, March 11th, 2008Not surprisingly, I drive the same way to the girls’ school every day. Most of the way is a straight shot down one particular street. It is a side street, but a busy side street because if you live in the area, you know to take it, instead of the congested 4 [...]
TheOldest Likes to Paint
Monday, March 10th, 2008TheOldest was 2 years old, not talking yet and had no idea that only paint was made for painting.
She didn’t understand that you should not paint your crib, the walls behind it or yourself with poo from your diaper at naptime.
And she didn’t realize that you should not paint yourself head-to-toe with Vaseline jelly.
The poo [...]
