Now with pink eye and bronchitis.

Wheezy

I’m ready for winter to be over as Lily has been extra sick this winter. It’s always something and on Saturday, Lily’s eye looked a little pink and her cough didn’t sound good, so I took her into the doctor. Turns out she had the start of pink eye and possibly bronchitis. The good news […]

Why are you walking like that? What’s wrong? Is it broken?

Panic!

Dear little girl, please don’t scare Dad like that. It all started on Sunday. We went to the play area at the mall and Lily was having all sorts of fun; like always. I was watching her and making sure none of the other kids ran her over and all was good. Then I noticed […]

Do your part to fuel your kids imagination.

  • 4 Feb, 2011

The thing I love most about kids is their imagination and creativity. The world is theirs to conquer and they fear nothing. As parents, we should fuel our kids imagination by either playing along and/or doing what we can to help out. VW has a great ad out right now that sums this all up […]

There is no style like comfortable.

One great thing about little kids is that they are comfortable being who they are. They don’t care about what they wear, how they look to others or if they seem to be doing everything a little odd. As long as they are comfortable, they are good to go. For example, this is Lily taking a nap […]

Why are fingers and nostrils the same size?

Ralph Wiggum - Picking Nose

Have you ever wondered why your fingers and nostrils are the same size? Especially when it’s not cool to put your fingers in there? With Lily having a runny and crusty nose, she has a tendency to try to either wipe away some of the snot away with her hand, or pick off the crusty parts. She […]

For some reason, all the toys are banned from the basement.

Pile of Toys

We’re not quite sure why, but last night Lily decided to put all her toys on the other side of the safety gate. She started by dropping the ones she was playing with on the other side of the gate. She then usually says oh oh, points, and expects us to come get them for […]

My little girl kind of looks like me.

Lily and Dad Jan11

Holy cow, my little girl kinda looks like a little me. It’s a little bit weird, and yet really cool! When we first had Lily everyone we knew said who she looked like. Everyone on my wife’s side could see baby Christi and everyone on my side of the family could see baby Thomas. And […]

Changing Up The Schedule

Clock Icon

One thing about little ones is that they like their schedule, and so do we. We know when they’re going to get up, when they’re going to go to bed and when they’ll eat. However, now I’m looking at changing that. It won’t be a big change, but since I have a new job, I’d […]

Why is there no toddler NyQuil?

NyQuil

I’m not a big fan of just giving medicine for the sake of it, but it seems that Lily has had a cough for the past few weeks and I’d like it to go away. Just as I thought it was getting better, it got worse. She spent half the night last night coughing and […]
