FYI

I have been out of commission lately as I have been outrageously busy! Doing what you might ask....cooking, visiting with friends, having play dates, going to weddings, attending bridal showers, celebrating birthdays, playing with chunky babies, spending a precious few hours with the hubby and running around like a headless chicken! I feel like I've been going non stop for weeks! Every weekend for the past two months seems it have been consumed by something!

I have a love/hate relationship with peanut-butter pie...I love the way it tastes however I hate what it does to my thighs!

My sweet sweet child is able to sit up and is rolling and is already six months old!!! How time does fly!

I am a cloth diaper-aholic and you might think that's really weird but I love me some cloth diapers! They are just awesome! If you ever decide you'd like to discuss cloth diapers with me please let me know!!! I could talk about them all day!

I didn't get a garden this year so I've taken over one of my flower beds and gone crazy with fruits/veggies! I've got tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, squash, zucchini, strawberries, green beans, beets, corn, blueberries and possibly a watermelon plant! I'm
So excited and cannot wait to see these plants grow and flourish!

I've been meaning to post on this blog for weeks but keep forgetting so I apologize!!! Hope everyone is having a fantastic week!

Oatmeal

So I know it's been way too long since I posted here! It's been a very busy couple of weeks and the next few weeks are just as busy! We've got lots of weddings to go to and wedding showers and birthdays and all sorts of things! I feel like I've been going non stop for weeks! AND my house is suffering because of it! It's not nearly as tidy as I'd like it to be!!! But that's completely off topic...oatmeal....so the little one had some baby eczema going on so I thought I nice oatmeal bath would be very calming and nice for him to sit in....NOT it turns out the little one is probably allergic to oatmeal as he was covered in hives after his bath! I felt so bad that I was trying to correct something minor and then he gets this major flare up! Thankfully he was quite the trooper throughout the whole ordeal and was very happy and not a bit fussy despite the huge hives all over his back! I posted a picture of how bad they were below so please don't mind the baby butt crack that you see! I also called his pediatricians office and they said I could give him benedryl so out to the store I went at 9:30 to get benedryl! Thankfully he didn't need it and by the time I fed him at 11 the hives were greatly reduced and just bumps!!! I'm so thankful it wasn't any worse and that he is okay! Not fun!!!
