i have a slight case of laryngitis so my voice is messed up. I picked up minisnick yesterday from day care and I started asking him about his day. THe first thing he says is Mommy stop talking weird.

wish i could kid

 
So NJ#1 slept her first night w/o a pull up. Hopefully this is the beginning of the of diapers for one of the three children. #2 has been expressing more and more of an interest in sitting on the potty. However, nothing successful, but it's def. a start in the right direction.

 
Damn NJ, what's your diaper budget been each month?
LOL, not fun to think about. Luckily many people bought us boxes and boxes of diapers just before #3 was born. Those sizes covered both #2 and #3 so we really haven't bought too many diapers overall.

^^^ No, I meant both kids are now old enough they don't need diapers anymore. Now I spend more than 2x the diaper budget on afterschool activities...

 
Mini-Dex#2 lost another tooth yesterday. Now she is missing both upper front teeth and her two middle bottom front teeth. The bad part is that she put the tooth under her pillow last night and the tooth fairy forgot to make a stop at our house. As Mrs Dex and I were taking a shower this morning, we heard a knocking on the bathroom door. We got out to check, and she was crying that the tooth fairy didn't visit last night. We had to make up an excuse that the tooth fairy can't fly in the snow (we got 1/2" of snow overnight), and that she would probably stop by tonight.

No diapers, for the win.


okay seriously, have you seen the article about holding the baby over the naked cup... I need to go find that... hilarious.


I remember reading about this Chinese practice in the cloth vs. disposable diaper debate. The argument in favor of cloth was that Chinese babies are potty-trained by 6 months since they wear those open-bottom gowns and learn to recognize the sensation, unlike disposable diapers that wick away the wet feeling. Kind of a silly argument when you consider all the stories of adult Chinese tourists who are still barely potty trained. :)

and what happens when she losses a tooth mid winter and snowing for days?

I found this because I was trying to figure out what the deal was about the baby cages.

The tooth fairy gets upgrades to Technology all the time... the next time a tooth comes out it will just so happen that her wings will be upgraded for deicing. She'll be able to fly in the snow... :)

 
since you were "together" in the bathroom maybe one of you should have done the consoling while the other went to double check (while grabbing $ on the way to her room) and say oh i found it it fell behind your bed on the floor...

hope it works out. I was without my two front teeth for almost two years. hopefuly no cook outs in the near future with corn on the cobb.
