Babies on A Plane

Drew had his first airplane flight last week and he took it like a champ. The flight was 4 hours long and we flew coach. The seats were so tight and I thought it would be 4 hours of juggling the baby on my lap. It actually wasn’t that bad at all. He slept for [...]

Christmas 2009

I haven’t enjoyed the holidays like this since I was a kid. For the first time in a long time it actually felt like Christmas Day. The magic of Christmas came back when I had Drew.
Years ago I was working at the mall, and Christmas just became a shopping event. The stores were crazy, customers [...]

Alkaline Body Fights Cancer and Disease

I have been wanting to blog about the importance of keeping your body alkaline for a long time. When my sister and I first discovered this simple yet critical part of living a healthy life it was, as Oprah would call it, an ah hah moment. This could save your life or the life of someone you [...]

Father Takes His Son (11) to Hooters

Picture this if you will. After a youth football game, a father takes his 11 year old son to a Hooters restaurant for lunch. My first reaction was, what kind of father is this? Honestly it’s a typical male thing to do and is perfectly fine among adults. But, why subject a child to scantily [...]

Baby’s First Christmas…Not spending too much.

I never understood the point of spending a bunch of money on an elaborate Christmas for a newborn or an infant. I just don’t see the point. The baby has no idea what’s going on, they usually end up playing with the box or wrapping paper anyway. So, I thought that when I had children, [...]

Cradle Cap is Gone

I wrote a few lines about how I went about getting rid of cradle cap naturally. It was so bad when Drew was born that the cradle cap was on the forehead too. It was very difficult to see because you just want your baby to be perfect and healthy, and you don’t know how [...]

Vaccine Catch up?

So, yesterday I took Drew (My Sweet) to the pediatrician, and they told us numerous times that we were behind on vaccinations. Now they want us to play catch up and come back in 6 weeks to have My Sweet get more shots. I personally don’t think this is a good idea.
I asked the Dr. [...]

Bathing is not a crime…

…but every time I take a shower I feel like I’ve stolen something! I asked some other new moms and moms with small children what time of day do they usually take a bath or shower and the answers were nothing short of shower, what’s a shower? Add that to the list of things that [...]

People May Think I’m Fine…

…but really I am about to go off the deep end. Maybe it’s my own fault for being too happy at times, but don’t get it twisted, having a baby and working part time (overnight) is quickly wearing me down. When people visit me, I look great, my baby is happy, my house is clean, [...]
