31 May 2011Our Verdicts: We bought our 1st box of Toothie Pegs last Nov and only finished the last peg yesterday itself.

20 May 2011We are finally at this stage of researching for the “right” formula milk. Although I am still breastfeeding 3-4x and expressing 1x a day, I know my supply is quickly depleting and I need to hurry up to introduce cow’s milk to Nate before he rejects the taste totally. The boy doesn’t like liquids other [...]

5 May 2011Natey was 8mo when he first showed signs of teething. That was when I began familiarizing him about oral hygiene by massaging his gums twice daily.
