Work, rash, and carrots

At work this morning we were having our usual chit chat and a coworker said to me, "so anything new going on?" The first thing that popped in my brain was "well Olivia is rolling from back to front and Hannah has a bad diaper rash." Luckily I caught those words before they came out of my mouth. The last thing I want to be is the woman who only talks about her kids and thinks others are very interested in diaper rash and rolling.

This is why I feel blessed that I have things I do other than my children. I can talk about running, because the Lord has blessed me with the free time and ability to run. I can talk about re-doing a house because the Lord has blessed me with a house. I can talk about cooking because the Lord has graciously provided food for our family. I can talk about sports because my husband talks enough about sports that to most guys I sound like I know what I'm talking about even though I really don't have a clue. My life is grounded in my faith in the Lord, so I can talk about what the Lord has done for us. I can even talk about coffee because I drink a whole lot of it.

So...my point...I'm just saying...my kids are pretty cool...but if you bring yours into my clinic and you are my patient....please hire a babysitter....I mean this in the nicest way possible.

I bought Hannah a pack of those silly bracelets because it is my goal in life to buy her all the cool new things so that other kids like her and she's popular.

I was eating baby carrots and hummus and came upon this baby carrot.

Hannah had one diaper rash when she was around 4 months old. I think cloth diapers have prevented any others. I changed the detergent I used and now she has a really bad rash. She cries with diaper changes. Says "owie" a lot. Although that's not new. Hopefully I can get this taken care of soon.
