Teething and still funny

I've got my fingers crossed that mother's intuition has finally decided to come to roost at Camp Sinki - because most of the time? I'm just wingin' it.

Willa's been... well, there's no delicate way to put diarrhea. And a precursor to that was a terrible diaper rash.

We've made and have been using the legendary "magic butt cream."

Recipe: equal parts Desitin, Lotramin and Malox OR, if you've got decent prescription coverage, have the doc call in a script. It's about $15 to diy or, in our case, $3 for the script. We're got both now.

Willa is well and healed. I saw the tips of her 2 year molars poking just below the gum line 2 night ago (this was my suspect all week).

Last night she wanted peanut butter.

"Peanut butter what, Willa?"
"Peanut butter... jelly."
"Peanut butter and jelly what?"
-blank look-
"What's the magic word?"
She raised her face to mine, got the most wonderful grin and proudly shouted, "magic butt!!! Willa's magic butt."
