We recently discovered my lil’ guy has food allergies. Hunter can not eat milk, eggs, wheat or nuts. A few months ago I was babysitting my two nephews. I was feeding the kids french toast and scrambled eggs. Hunter is such a little begger when it comes to food and he was eyeing the scrambled [...]

Teething Trick
My baby boy, Hunter, has been teething like crazy! This little guy is only nine and a half months old and he already has eight teeth! That is hard on a baby as young as he is. He has been extra fussy lately, he just cries and nothing will soothe him. But, my husband has [...]
Mommy Nightmare
My little guy, Hunter, is 9 months old and loves his walker. I am thinking that he loves his walker so much he will never crawl. Hunter weighs 22 lbs. , last time we checked, so when he is in his walker he is moving fast! He looks like a football player pushing one of [...]
Swimming Pools & Cryptosporidiosis
Swimming with my kids is my favorite part of summer. Yesterday we had a great day at the pool with a bunch of friends. I used to teach swimming lessons and my goal for this summer is to get my 2 year old swimming this summer. So, we will be spending a lot of time [...]

Toddler Rash?
My 2 year old little girl has been sick for it seems like the last month. (See “When it rains, it pours!” post.) Lexi’s fever has left and the swelling is down, but her rash will not go away. It is a red rash, sometimes it is little dots, sometimes it looks like bug bites, [...]
When it rains, it pours!
Just when I thought my little girl could not possibly get sick with anything else… Lexi, my sweet 2 year old, woke up with a horrible rash yesterday. I called my pediatrician, who I talk to on a regular basis lately, and they said that it is very common for little kids to get a [...]
Pneumonia
In the last two weeks I have been to the Doctor 7 times and filled 9 prescriptions for our family! It has been a little crazy for all of us. It all started with pink eye, Lexi, my little two year old, showed up with that on a Sunday of course. Do kids ever get [...]
Halloween and Kids Safety
Halloween is such a fun time for the kids to get all dressed up in their costumes and go trick-or-treating. However there are a lot of things that can make such a fun occasion go sour real quick. Make sure you are watching out for your kids, and make sure to keep them out of [...]
Batman & Popcorn Induces Labor
Last Thursday my husband took me on what will be one of our last dates before the baby comes. We went to see The Dark Night. Great movie by the way! Well, during the movie I started having contractions. This is my second pregnancy and I was induced with my first one and never had [...]
