That's My Jam

Who said being mommy is all dirty diapers and runny noses? Well, mostly it is. But when I'm not wiping behinds and noses...or random sticky stuff off of the floor, Hayes and I like to crank up the volume, scream at the top of our lungs and jam out together like the misunderstood children of musicians that we are. So I thought I'd share some of our best moments of the day with this brief list of our top 5 fave "children's" songs:

#5-The theme song to A Nightmare on Elm Street (I must admit, it's kinda creepy coming from a 2-year old. But Hayes and his crew can't resist the catchy numbers song),

#4-"Fatou Yo" by Tourè Kunda (from Putumayo's World Playground series. It's a Senegalese song. As Hayes carefully attempts each and every word, I wonder if he has even a clue that he's singing in Mandingo!),

#3-"That Girl" by Pharrell (Alright, so I put Hayes onto this one...and after the 5th replay of the day, I'm convinced he likes it way more than I do),

#2-The theme song to The L Word (I can't even begin to explain this one),

#1-Elmo's World theme song (C'mon, he's the coolest 3-year old monster out here).

Jam on, babies!

What the...?!

Milkscreen alcohol detection strips claims to be able to indicate the presence of alcohol in breast milk...

If there's a breastfeeding mommy out there who can down enough martinis to change the color of that little strip before baby's up again and screaming for a snack, you must be exhausted, girl! Sit the next round out and take a power nap instead.

Spring Kick Pick

My sneaker pick for the month is this sweet pair by Creative Recreation. They're purple, sky blue, and lime green. Hayes is going to love the velcro on these toddler size 7s.
