Twins Without Cribs = Chaos!

I was fully planning on keeping the Twins in their cribs until I had to, quite possibly until they were 8 {No joke}. But then, my plans were changed for me when one of their cribs broke and I had to take them down. And, it’s been absolute hell ever since. Yes, it’s my blog and I will say hell, since no other word comes to mind when describing this new parenting task that I am battling. Seriously, this new situation could not go worse… For the last couple of weeks, I have been trying to transition the Twins from [...]

It’s Official! There Is No Link Between Pampers Dry Max Diapers & Diaper Rash

I started following the Pampers Dry Max debate long before I had the opportunity to tour the Baby Care HQ in Cincinnati in June of this year. Like many parents, I too have been waiting for the official testing results from Health Canada and the US Consumer Product Safety Commission {CPSC} regarding the safety of Dry Max Diapers and if it is at all possible that they cause severe diaper rash. This afternoon, I got the news that their studies were complete and that there is no need for concern when it comes to the safety of the new Dry [...]

I know how important essential fatty acids {EFA’s} derived from eating fish is, yet someone please tell that to my kids. I am constantly trying new fish recipes, only to be more and more discouraged by their adamant refusal to even taste it. In my many efforts to supply them with these EFA’s, I also tried fish oil supplements, yet the taste of them aren’t met with excitement either. Thanks to Mom Central, I was recently introduced to Ascenta’s new NutraSea Kids supplement, and it proved to be just the product that I needed for my children. Especially with school [...]

My Twins Keep Their Clothes and Diapers On!

I have watched a great number of Google Searches coming to My Organized Chaos directly to my post My Twins Will Not Keep Their Diapers On!. Obviously this is a common parenting problem, one that needs some further discussion. As a recap, I was very frustrated that my 2 year old Twins kept stripping off their clothes and diapers at nap time. I’m all for potty training and allowing them to do this {at home} during the day. Yet, it’s quite maddening to have them stripping 5 million times when I’m trying to get them to go to sleep. By [...]
