Mommin' It Up since 2004!
When perusing Amazon.com to buy Baby 411 for yet another baby shower gift, I found that Amazon is offering a Baby 411 & Toddler 411 gift set at a great price! What a great idea, because if you need one, you’re going to need the other! I’ve added a link to this bargain below.
Happy Shopping!
Ok, I’ve been a stay-at-home mom for exactly 26 days, and already I have undergone a huge change in my core values. Somehow, without my noticing, I repented of my sin of vanity and became a worshipper at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Perpetual Ponytail. Don’t worry Mom, I still worship at my local church on Sundays, but I am also faithful to attend services at OLPP the other six days of the week. Allright, FINE, I’m there on Sundays TOO. Seriously, people. I think I have only worn my hair down twice in the last 26 days. I mean, I know it’s summer and all but the real reason I twist that black elastic circle around the hair I used to flip so faithfully is because I have chosen to sacrifice my appearance for the greater good of say, getting out the door on time, or feeding the children. The kids get me up early and apparently I am not devoted enough to get out of bed in time to worship at Our Lady of the Beatific Blowout. I’m afraid my makeup applications have also gotten fewer and further between, and I sometimes go all day without looking in a mirror! Yikes! Will I ever return to my coiffed, mascara-ed self? Sure, sure, I’ll get around to it…I don’t have a problem… I can quit this ponytail nonsense anytime I want!

Kate’s 18-month check-up was on Tuesday, and the doctor said she needed a little medicine on her girl parts because of the remains of her UTI. So we got the prescription filled yesterday, and when we got home Andy looked at the directions for the medicine. It came in a box with a tube of med, a 66-page booklet of directions, and a plunger. That’s right, a plunger, just like one that would come with, say, Monistat 7. So Andy’s reading the directions about how to fill the plunger and where to put it, and I was like, “That thing can NOT fit in there” as the color quickly drained from Andy’s face. So then he looked at the directions from the doctor, and it said just to put a little bit on the outside of her girl parts. Andy nearly passed out from relief. It was pretty humorous.

OH MY Gosh I was literally about to cry before you got to the part where you DIDN’T have to stick that thing up Kate’s baby-gina! Praise Jesus! A parent should just never have to do that!! I am also glad you discovered that before Andy hit the floor. In other toddler doctor’s appointment news, Joshua really “enjoyed” his flu shot today and also, as usual, getting his temp taken rectally. They are old-school at his dr’s office! I wanted to give Joshua some Motrin when we got home, to fend off any soreness from the vaccine, and he was by the front door, and he saw me take the Motrin off the mantle, and he goes “Oh! Medsin!” and booked it over to me and practically started climbing up my leg! So congrats to the makers of children’s Motrin on their flavoring! Apparently it’s exrtreeeeeemely tasty. I’ll have to watch and make sure he’s not faking any flu shot reaction symptoms just to get him so mo’ Mo’ (that’s the street name for Motrin, in case you didn’t know.)
