Revenge of the ear infection.

  • 2 May, 2011
Sick Lily

Last week Lily’s ear infection came back. If it wasn’t bad enough to have it once, now we had it twice. We aren’t exactly sure it went away in the first place. I think the problem could be that we’ve had an allergic reaction to amoxicillin in the past so we get put on something else. Either that something else […]

Don’t trust iPhoto with your Flickr photos.

iPhoto Flickr

I found out yesterday that iPhoto, when integrated with Flickr, alters your sets based on iPhotos limitations and doesn’t let the user know. I’ve been using Flickr for years and have been very happy with it. Once Lily was born the number of photos I uploaded increased dramatically. I’ve now got nearly 900 Lily photos, […]

Finding Easter Eggs and Happiness

Easter

Last week Lily got an Easter basket from daycare and it was filled with all sorts of goodies. It was then that she realized how cool Easter eggs were. We’ve since been practicing our Easter egg hunting skills. We hide them and she tracks them down. She doesn’t just look for the obvious ones either. She’s getting […]

It’s not a mess Dad, it’s mashed potato art.

  • 18 Apr, 2011

I can’t tell if Lily is an artist or just really good at making messes. This is what she did with her mashed potatoes the other night during dinner. And it’s not like it took a few seconds, she spent quite a bit of time making it look good.

Pudding Finger Painting

Have you ever wanted to do finger painting with your little one but was to worried about them eating the paint? Well try pudding instead. We use vanilla pudding and add in some food coloring. Now we can finger paint without having to worry. Granted Lily doesn’t like getting her hands dirty so it hasn’t […]

Dear ear infections, you suck.

  • 5 Apr, 2011

Last night Lily woke up crying again. We tried the hug & a book approach but this time it didn’t work. She’d go down for short periods of time, but then she’d be backup and crying. We then tried to let her sleep with us, but that wasn’t working well either. She’s sleep for maybe […]

Sometimes all we need is a hug and a story.

15 Animals

For some reason, Lily has been waking up shortly after going to bed recently. Then she breaks down and just cries. She gets all worked up and it’s so sad. Not to mention very out of the ordinary. After a little while, we go in and give her a hug. Then we sit down and […]
