Last weekend I went to one of my oldest friends baby shower. It was a lovely party for her and her baby, and I was so glad I got to share in the experience with her. She looks gorgeous, and her son is already so blessed! But, it was nerve-wracking … Continue reading
Monday night, the Geek woke up in the middle of the night and went to eat some cereal. Somehow, a bite of cereal managed to crack one of his teeth! He said it hurt like crazy, and was not feeling very well Tuesday. The dentist said the tooth is not … Continue reading
Have you ever noticed that food is everywhere? No, seriously. It’s in commercials, TV shows, movies, magazines, books, billboards…it is everywhere, and you can’t escape it. Mr. Charm is now in the 2-3 year old group at Sunday School, instead of in the nursery. This is great! He now gets … Continue reading

Mr. Happy had a rough day. He wanted to be held. But only in certain positions, thank you! He ‘snacked’ all day. Wouldn’t drink a full bottle at all! Just an ounce at a time, but every single hour. It was straight up comfort feeding. He napped a ton. More … Continue reading
Mr. Happy seemed to be doing better on the Elecare last week. He had a few days of Happy Baby – no clinginess, no vomit, very little spit up, doing great! I thought it was just the transition to elemental formulas, and that he had pushed through to a new … Continue reading
Today was a bad day for me. We stuck with the diet; it’s already starting to occur to me just how monotonous this is going to get, but I’ll stick with it. I don’t know how to begin to describe why this day was bad. Lots of little things just added … Continue reading
