Teething

Does anyone have any tricks besides Tylenol and Orajel to help us survive the teething process?

Popsicles :). I've also heart that the teething tablets you can get in the baby section of the grocery store are good.

Teething tablets at walmart or target- they are homeopathic. Also, kid-e-col, that's used for colic and teething. Here's a link:http://www.colicshop.com/dr-crhistophers-kid-e-col-gripe-water.shtml
Teething is so hard to deal with, best of luck!

The Concept

At one point in my life, I thought being a mom was going to be mundane. I thought that it was going to be all work and no play and that everyday was going to be exactly the same boring routine. Boy, was I wrong! Being a mom has thrown more curve balls at me than my bachelor's degree and corporate chaos combined--and it's only been 5 and 1/2 months! My baby is consistenly changing, my bank account is consistenly changing, my homemaking skills are consistenly changing, and my emotional stability? You guessed it--consistently changing.

So, with some help from friends, I've started this blog. I'm sure the concept of the blog will continue to morph as we all talk about the "celebrations and frustrations" of mom-hood. I want to know what tips, tricks, and oops my mom-friends have made. I want to know, as my friend Natalie put it, how do you do it? I want to know what you've done to love the home you've created. I want to look at the comments and recognize that I have friends that know how I feel whether it is a happy moment, or a "I want to strangle somebody!" moment. I also noticed, when I was in school, I would do a project and get a grade. When I was at work, I would do a project and get feedback and/or results. At home, I can do a project that may never get noticed. So, this blog will be an opportunity for me and my friends to tout their "Look at me! I did it!" moments. I love telling people they did a great job and I'm not even going to lie, I like to hear it too.

So, I need authors. Want to join? Email me at missprovo06@hotmail.com and I'll be more than happy to add you to the list. We'll try to have guest bloggers from time to time because we really want to know how you are doing and how we can help. We want you to ask questions, give answers, start discussions, give ideas, share talents, and tell stories that make us laugh, cry, and pause to think.
