We were told from day one that blankets couldn’t go in the crib for safety reasons. Of course, if Lily was swaddled in a smaller receiving blanket, than that was ok. The sad thing is, we got lots of nice blankets for shower gifts and even home-made ones! They’ve been used, but never for sleeping. So when […]
Picking and eating apples.
The other day we took Lily out on her first apple picking adventure. The orchard we went to had lots of animals to see, pumpkins to check out and, of course, apples! Walking out into the orchard was a bit troublesome for Lily as she doesn’t pick her feet up to far off the ground. […]
I’m retiring from Firefox theming.
It’s been a fun journey over the past 5 years creating Firefox themes. I created nearly a dozen themes, stating with iPox, and I’ve got over 5 million downloads! However, I just can’t keep up. With Firefox 4 just around the corner, my themes would probably need to be revamped from the ground up and […]
Letting them cry themselves to sleep really works?!
There is a lot of advice that comes and goes. Some is easy to do while others sounds like the worst thing ever. Like when we were told to lay Lily down and just let herself cry herself to sleep. If we did this, she’d eventually allow us to put her to bed, while awake, […]
How to code a CSS ninja.
CSS Ninjas are actually pretty easy to code. Just set them to black, make them hidden, and you’re good to go!
The best things come from Amazon.
Lily loves when things come from Amazon. The boxes are extremely fun to climb in and out of and they usually come with paper packing inside! Never mind the toys that may be in there too, we’re mainly just interested in the box.
What makes a good web host?
I’ll admit it, I have A.D.D when it comes to technology. There’s always something new, someone cheaper, or something shiny that grabs my attention. But new isn’t always better. As I’m writing this post, I’m having conversations with my web host, A Small Orange, over high CPU performance. It seems that something on my WordPress […]
Successfully transitioned from formula to whole milk and bottles to sippy cups.
Once Lily turned one, the transition was on from bottles to sippy cups and from formula to whole milk. It took a couple of weeks, but she’s successfully transitioned. The biggest thing to remember is to go slow. We fist started introducing sippy cups instead of bottles before we started transitioning milk. We’d give Lily one for […]
My iPad has a sound issue much like the iPhone antenna issue.
Remember when people were complaining that the iPhone 4 had reception issues? Of course you do, it wasn’t that long ago. Well it turns out, that if you put your finger over the antenna, then the signal strength dropped. Guess what? The iPad has the same design flaw, only with sound! You see, I was […]
When did my baby girl become a toddler?
When Lily turned one, did that make her a toddler? Or what’s that age is it when they no longer considered a baby? I don’t think I’m ready for a toddler. I like my baby girl. Toddlers seem bigger, more independent and I’m not ready for that. I like my little girl who’s completely dependent on me and who thinks I’m […]
