My daughter is an early bloomer and it did’ not surprise me in the least that she is already walking at nine months old. I’m so proud of her! She’s also begun sharing her toy and her cup with me… lol. It’s so cute! It’s really fun to watch your child and see how much they grow and change on a daily basis. It never ceases to amaze me!

Mel had her 9 month appointment last week. She’s ahead in everything, no surprise there. She is still below the 5% in weight but that’s due to her thyroid problem. She’s really long …already 28 inches! So, the Doctor was concerned because Mel has a vaginal adhesion! This scared me but the Doctor said it was normal and happens all the time to little girls. She prescribed estrogen cream that I am to apply to the area for two weeks twice a day. It should take care of the problem but if it doesn’t, my daughter will have to have surgery. I read online that the problem sometimes just takes care of itself but Doc’s today don’t want any problems like urinary track infections to happen so that’s why they go ahead with prescription or sugery if needed. I’m praying that the cream will take care of the problem. I give it to God.

I happened across a Wonderwasher today and boy how I could use one! I was so excited that I visited the site and read everything I could about it. I love how it’s  a space saving, time saving, energy saving Green Clean solution for all my laundry needs!

The Wonderwash and the  Mini Countertop Spin Dryer would make my life so much easier for washing my daughters clothes, especially her cloth diapers! We are going to be moving soon and we are going to be without a washer and dryer until we can find the money to afford them and something like this that’s less expensive would be great to have.  I go through my own process when washing my daughters diapers and it would be incredibly inconvenient to use a local laundry mat for this.  I have grown to like the idea of using this over a regular washer and dryer for my daughter’s clothes and diapers as it  cleans a five pound load in just minutes using less water and detergent than even hand washing!  If you’d like to check out the Wonderwash for yourself, you can find it here:  http://www.laundry-alternative.com/

After thought: Hey, with this I won’t lose socks anymore!

I recently had the opportunity to review Neat Solutions Table toppers in the Sesame Street design!

My husband and I tend to go out to eat a few times a month and when we are out; our nine month old daughter comes along with us. I will attest that I don’t trust any place to be very clean in public. Just recently we were out the waitress quickly wiped down the table and the chair where my daughter was being placed and seated. She was using a wet rag that she just threw back in a wet bucket when she was done. I was nearly mortified! Do you know how many germs that cloth and bucket of water was probably reeking with? I shudder at the thought. My little one eats her own little snacks and happily bangs on the table but there was no way I was going to let her do that on that surface without some sort of protection. That’s where Neat Solutions Table toppers came into play!

Neat Solutions Table toppers are great. They are disposable stick in place mats for your children. They come in fun designs from Sesame Street, Winnie The Pooh, Baby Einstein, Dora, and more! They are also BPA-Free, PVC-Free, and phthalate-Free. My daughter loves to look out the bright colorful placemats while she eats and it keeps her preoccupied while mommy and daddy eat and socialize with friends!

Thanks to Neat Solutions Table toppers I can eat and enjoy time out with peace of mind knowing I’m keeping my daughter safe and healthy!
