After an awesome summer I’m back at work teaching pre-k. We have a new curriculum this year that was created by some great specialists and one of our speakers was Dr. Pam Schiller. If you have a baby you need to know who she is, she’s fabulous! I’m telling you this because I learned some […]

No I’m not getting rid of my dogs, though I will admit life would be easier if they weren’t so spoiled. First Wally spent a weekend with the emergency vet and needed 10 days of medicine 3 times a day and now Daphne got spayed and needs medicine 3 times a day. So naptime has […]

We all love to brag about our babies and how developmentally advanced they are for their age. Every new, cute thing our baby does is a developmental milestone for a reason. Like crawling.
