Weight

What is happening to America.  Everyone (exaggeration) is fat, obese or at least over weight.  It’s really sad that now models, magazines and clothing ads are all promoting this.  How is it we are all on a diet, but all still fat.  All the pictures in the ads about weight loss say “results now normal” [...]

Baby Food

I’m old fashioned, but I think the only way to feed a baby is to nurse.  Cows milk is for cows and human milk is for humans.  I do realize there are cases when you can nurse, needing to take certain meds, inability to produce milk and a lot more.  But, even dumber, is beginning [...]

MADD

I went to a MADD (Mothers against Drunk Drivers) and was fairly supprised by their attitude.  I thought they would be throw backs from prohibition, but they are very open minded.  They don’t care about the drinking – they just want us to stay off the street and out of the car if we do [...]

Sleeping

The scientist say that a full night sleep to a baby is 5 hours.  I have a hard time with 9 sometimes.  But they consider this sleeping through the night for newborns up to about 6 months.  In fact some babies don’t actually sleep through the night, in the normal sense, until they are 1 [...]

Aunts

When I had my first son my sister in law drove me nuts.  She was 25 and her biological clock was almost gone?  I had to tear my son away just to nurse him.  I like babies, but jeeze.
The good news is she finally got married and now has 3 boys of her own – [...]

Celebrity Baby Names Vs. the South

Some of the names celebrities are naming their kids are terrible.  How would you like to grow up as Banjo Patrick (Rachel Griffin) or Bronx Mowgli (Ashlee Simpson).   More than a couple have named their child Bandit.
Course I don’t have much right to talk.  We have some pretty strange name in the south.  My grandmother [...]

Two Stupid Dogs

I’ve talked a lot about the new puppy.  But I have failed to tell you about our “regular” dog.  A little boy asked us to watch her for a few hours a couple of years ago and he just never came back.  So now I have 2 doge and five cats – the cats can [...]

Sewing

Did you mom ever sew?  Mine sewed all our baby clothing and then through most of our teens.  I used to hate it.  Then I got to buy something off the rack!! yeah!!  It was horrible.  I had no idea I had a personal custom tailor at home.  Of course by then she went to [...]

Flub, I know

I’m supposed to make each blog varied – but I did do two jets almost in a row – it’s just that winter really does freak me out.  I love shorts, tank tops – the less the better.
Wool belongs on lambs, not humans or baby clothes.

Momma Guru

Did you ever notice once you had a baby or two they all sound the same.  You can tell if they’re mad, hungry, tired or whatever.  They may have different voices, but they all make the same noise.
I also noticed after my boys were toddlers and older I would hear a baby crying, say in [...]
