I love this video I took of Andi last year after gymnastics. She is such a goof.http://specialmommy.blogspot.com/2008/09/when-you-have-kid-like-this.html Lily is still under the weather, but hey it only took Walgreens 4 days to get the Tamiflu in! Just a shade under a decade. I started her on it today. Her fever is still low grade but …
After Andi’s pediatrician put the fear of God in me if Lily got the swine flu I was on high alert. Yesterday morning Lily felt warm and was running a 100.3 degree fever. Under normal conditions I would just let it ride, but knowing Andi as of yesterday was on day 6 of her fever …
103 degree fever, chills, cough, sore throat, tummy ache, all signs point to swine flu. Or so says the doctor. He is the least worry wart doctor we’ve ever met so when he said that, I believe him. He says Andi should be fine, she will need rest, fluids, and to stay away from her …

New teeth, new wheels, new fall line ups!Ok seriously Lily got her new chair yesterday and it is like a Cadillac compared to her old chair! The old chair was good, it lasted 5 years for goodness sake, but this one reclines, it has a head rest she can’t get her head past and padding …
I’ve been “staying home” for 6 months now. Previously Andi went to daycare 3 days a week from 8 mo old to almost 4 yrs old. So she was never in daycare full time, ever. Lily was with me until she started pre k half days at 3 yrs old. So I guess I’ve always …
Activia…WOW! Lily has always had a problem with pooping. She is most often constipated, but there are times where she is the exact opposite, usually one or the other. We have tried pretty much everything. Most supplements make her let’s just say, a big mess. I hate having to use suppositories and I also hated …
