Well, last night our heat went out. Yep, that's right. In the middle of the night and in the middle of winter... we had absolutely NO heat! AHHHH!!! I woke up to a house that was 54 degrees! Jesse tried everything this morning to try to fix it... but nothing was working. Luckily, our landlord came over and fixed it. In the meantime, I got a few space heaters from my parent's house and we made due with those. It got quite a bit warmer during the day though...it got up to a whole 60 degrees in this house. Needless to say, I had Gabe all bundled up. hah! He was wearing socks, a sleeper, and a hat. He was definitely warm.
With that being said, I frantically started cleaning our house today since our landlord was coming over. I don't like our house being messy when we expect company... so this was just the boost I needed to get it clean. I managed to finish the little area for Gabe's toys in our living room and hang a few more pictures up! :) I must say, our house is starting to look better... slowly but surely!
So, today I realized that Gabe has NEVER had a diaper rash...and he's 6 1/2 months old! I don't know how common this is or if it really is a big deal... but for us, it is. I made it a goal when we had him that he would not ever have a diaper rash. So far, so good! :) What's our secret weapon!? Baby Powder of course! I baby powder his little butt all the time.. and when he had diarrhea this past week, I also used some vaseline to keep it from getting too red and dry! Works wonders I tell you! :)
Not to be a downer, but the Babby never had diaper rash until she was past one! I thought we were in the clear for sure! But keeping my fingers crossed you'll miss out on it!
