I didn’t realize how much little ones liked mobile until Boo arrived. I quickly learned that even a fussy, high needs baby, could be soothed by a little smackeral of something floating or moving overhead. At home we have this wonderful Butterfly Mobile that quickly became a favorite. At my Mom’s house, I had to […]

I am already trying to remember when this was. it was a while ago…. that’s why I need to blog about it right away! Next time maybe I won’t be so delayed in posting. In any case, Boo started reaching and grabbing (this summer)!

Every Potty Has a Pooper, That’s Why We Invited You – Potty, Pooper! Potty, Pooper!…. Little Triumphs: Pooping in the “Big” Potty at IKEA – Yayy!! (and a little train as a reward for being such a big girl.)My little stinker has been pooping on the potty since she has been about 15 months old. […]
