Prurigo – Its spreading!

by beagoodmom on June 30, 2007

…not how you would expect.  It seems to be spreading to Pookie’s legs.  Maybe I don’t have what I think I have.   The itch has gone away somewhat, but I still have the bumps.  Now Pookie has some too.  I tried to convince BAGD that we got it from the long grass by the fence [...]

Dry Erase Markers- Did you know?

by beagoodmom on June 25, 2007

Did you know that Dry Erase Markers write (and erase) on mirrors? The other night, after a shower, Pookie tried to write his name in the steam on the mirror. It did not go well, since it was a quick shower and the steam was light. But I ran down stairs for a pair of [...]

I am not sure if this has anything to do with it or not, but I spent about 4 hours outside in the sun yesterday. My feet itched a lot that day….but not so much today. I wonder if the sun was good for my Prurigo of Pregnancy? Vitamin D and all that. If so, [...]

How do you know when you are a real parent?

by beagoodmom on June 24, 2007

For me, it was when I found myself keeping or buying odd things because “the kids will think this is funny.” Case in point: I am a one-woman show and they are my audience. I would do just about anything to make them smile. Including buying $25 fruity punch drinks in the Cayman Islands and [...]
