Earthquake

Having your bed shaking and hearing a rumbling sound. What a weird way to wake up at 1 am.

S.P.W.

Food

In my search through the fridge for lunch, nothing sounded good. So I grabbed an apple. It's really really good.

Customer Service?

We recently bought a new box of diapers for Noah. Same brand that we've always bought for him. A day or two after we started using them he broke out in a rash all over his poor little butt, exactly where the diaper touches him. Evidently he's allergic to them now. So I emailed the company to see if they had changed any of the chemicals they use or anything like that. Here is their response:

We are sorry to learn that your son experienced a rash at the time you were using our product. Each component in XXXXX diapers was evaluated to ensure that the material would not produce irritation or signs of allergic response. Extensive studies also have been performed on the product to ensure the overall safety and performance of XXXXX diapers. Although these studies have shown that it would be unusual for the cause of the rash to be traced solely to XXXXX diapers, we certainly regret that this happened.

With the hope that you will continue to use Kimberly-Clark products, we are sending you some cost-saving coupons through the mail. Thanks again for contacting us and for giving us an opportunity to respond. We value you as our customer.

Can anyone explain to me why I want coupons for a product that my child is allergic to?

Late Christmas

Last night we finally got around to doing our Christmas with the Wardles. We headed over to One Man Band for some yummy dinner. It was kind of nice going out on a snowy Wednesday night. There was NO ONE out. We got our food really fast, and it was nice and quiet in there. After dinner we headed back to our house for presents, treats (we were all too full), games and a movie. I got a cake decorating book and tip set, which I'm very excited to start playing with, and Z got noise canceling headphone things to use while he's shooting.

P.S. When your kid had just barely recovered from diarrhea, don't give him onion rings at dinner.

Cravings

In the 13ish months total of my life that I've been pregnant, this is the first time I've wanted to make a special trip to the store for what I'm craving.

Frito's dipped in pizza sauce and topped with shredded cheese. Go ahead, think I'm crazy. But it's GOOD!

Naked Time

Noah and his cousin Eva had naked time on Christmas Eve before they got into their new pajamas that Santa's Elves brought them.
