My Baby Bum

This post is a plea for help. My baby stinks. His pits emit an odor that I've only smelled on bums and an occasional teen going through puberty. I know it's hard to believe a cute little dude like Preston could be stinky, but he is. The odor is so strong, that his funk transfers onto my hands from where I've picked him up.

I've been using cornstarch, which works great at first, but then loses its power. So if anyone has any suggestions on how to turn my baby bum back into the sweet-smelling infant he once was, I'd greatly appreciate it.

(And before anyone implies I don't bathe him, I do. Sometimes daily.)

Preston in Preston?

Yes, we finally made it to Washington! And it looks as though we brought the hot Ohio weather with us – we've been here since Thursday, not a drop of rain, and we're having record-breaking heat. Apparently the Seattle area only has weather this sunny and clear about three days a year. So instead of chilling out and taking a much-needed break, we've been getting out and exploring our new surroundings.

And our way home from Snoqualmie Falls, we happened upon a small town called PRESTON. Who would have thunk it? Our little guy was beat and half asleep, but we woke him and propped him up against this dirty roadside rock for a photo op.

I wonder if we could find a town called "Kate" or "Jeremy"? Hmmmmm.

Belated HFD Post

On Father's Day Jeremy asked that he not have to change a single diaper, just as I requested on my day last month. I obliged and told him I'd do whatever I could to make his first FD a good one.

Not long after my promise was made, I told him I thought I'd heard Preston waking up from his nap and asked him if he'd go check on him. If memory serves correct, I got the ol' eye roll from my husband, but he did it anyhow.

Seconds later I hear Jeremy chuckling. I had dressed Preston is a special FD onesie. One that Jeremy would remember forever.








And yes, those little illustrations are sperm. If you don't 'get it' I can't help you.
