Not a Milk Moustache

By -


Audrey seems to have a permanent red, dry skin section above her lip. We've tried everything to help it heal. I think it comes from her saliva. Then when she has a binky in, that area doesn't dry out. So our latest remedy has been to put some vaseline on it and then on top of that some zinc oxide. I think zinc oxide is normally used for lifeguards' noses, but it seems to work o.k. The only thing is that she ends up with this white moustache. It is hilarious!

Cathy could probably help with the amputation.

The other half of the night Cannon was up every two hours until I let him sleep with us. Audrey actually stayed in her bed and only cried once. This brings me to last night. 11:00 PM I turn out the lights and go to bed, thinking to myself that Cannon will probably be up in an hour. 12:00 AM Cannon wakes up. I feed him. 1:00 AM I wake up, slumped over with Cannon still in my arms to Audrey screaming. I quickly put Cannon back in his bed and go see Audrey. She is standing up with her blanket and sippy, has already said "good bye" to binky and is ready to get out of bed. I bring her back to bed with me. 2:00 AM Fight with Audrey about the covers (she...
