Things have been kinda crazy around here the past few days.
On Saturday my Dad had a heart attack. He came home yesterday evening.
We are so thankful to have him home and so thankful that he's doing so well.
Last week Baby Drew had a raw butt. It was horrible and I had no clue how it happened. Babies that young usually dont get diaper rash so I felt so bad. She cried so bad when I'd change her diaper so I decided to just use soft deposable cloths to clean her bottom. I'd wet a couple and use another one to dry her with. Finally after a few days it had cleared up a little bit. I decided it was okay to use her wipes again. Within a few hours her little butt was all red and raw again. Being the genius that I am (ha) I finally figured out that she's allergic to her wet wipes. So we're sticking with using our own wipes. I bought those round cotton wipes that you use to remove makeup and we're wetting those to clean her. I'm hoping it's just the Pampers brand wipes that she's allergic to and that eventually we can use another brand but for now we're sticking with our "homemade" wipes.
And on a GREAT note... Drew slept from 10:30 last night to 7:30 this morning!!!! Yay!!! Since she's so young I'm sure it'll be a while before it happens again but it sure was nice.
