Not For Making Pizza Dough…

I got a lovely surprise when I opened The Gnome’s diaper on Monday.

You might know that he almost never gets rashes. If you don’t, he’s only had two rashes in the past 17 1/2 months. We attribute some of that to cloth and KalmSkin, but also – he just doesn’t have [...]

I feel kind of weird posting this because it’s not really about anything in particular but I decided to share anyway. This is the real us. Boring and normal. You can tell me if you hate it! 

I didn’t post at all this weekend, which is rare. But Saturday was our anniversary (if [...]

Lessons in Potty Learning

By On December 5, 2011 · 3 Comments

He likes to give hugs on the potty. Weird? Maybe… but still really cute!

As I mentioned in this post, The Gnome is starting to potty learn. So far, it has been quite the adventure. And The Gnome certainly isn’t the only one learning here. Oh no. Hubby and I [...]
