Okay...I have a bit of a problem with Hannah. After she started teething, she started going 'beaver' on her crib. After nearly having a panic attack, I discovered that beaver behavior among babies is common. What I found surprising was that no one has really come up with an effect rail cover...but that's neither here or there. I assumed that she would grow out of it once all her teeth came in. I was wrong. She quickly began to chew on everything, from shoes to books. Thankfully, that behavior seems to have waned, but now has been replaced by something worse: wall chewing.Yes...wall chewing. After I covered up all her chewing spots on the crib, she began chewing the texture off the wall. I've resorted to pulling the crib about 6 inches away from the wall when she's in it, but she's going to be moving to a toddler bed soon. Then she will have free access to gnaw to her harts content. Has anyone else had to deal with this before? How in the heck do I get her to stop? ...

Happy Veterans Day
My grandfather, Reah H. Walker, was a teenager when he was drafted into the Army during WW2. He lived on a farm in rural Tennessee, and I don't think he had ever been outside his county, let alone the US. He was in every major battle, including D-Day. During one battle, he crossed repeatedly back over enemy lines to retrieve wounded men and get him to safety. These actions earned him the Bronze Star. He was a hero, but always played it off. "They handed those things out to everybody," he always said.To all those who have severed, thank you for your service. ...

just some general updates
I am seriously behind in updates and reviews. Whatever is going on with my hand is not getting any better, and at times it's almost impossible to type. Approval for the MRI is taking a while, but I'm hoping to find out something soon so I can go ahead and get it done. So . . . . posts are going to be a bit behind for a little while longer, at least. I'm going to try to get some stuff posted tomorrow, so be on the lookout for a barrage of product reviews and at least two more giveaways.Hannah has finally figured out how to climb up onto the couch, so I've spent the last few days pulling her off the coffee table. She's also taken to trying to walk around the house in my tennis shoes. She actually gets around pretty good, but I'm to scared she's going to fall and get hurt to let her wear them for too long. I got a couple of cute videos of her though the I might post up later in the week. ...
