tried a new recipe for valentine's cookies today. no sugar! maple syrup instead. taste like an almond butter and jelly sandwich.

more diaper stuff...

I've bought the prefolds from diaperswappers.com. There's a lot of forums there, but you can search in the cloth diaper forum just for prefolds. I've gotten a dozen for about $25 with shipping. I figure it's more environmentally friendly to buy these than to buy new ones.

good luck! lemme know what other questions you've got :)

update on sickness in our house:

I am feeling almost 100%
S is home today b/c he has strep.
took O to the doc today--he has an ear infection.

me: (singing)"I'm going to Louisiana"

O: (singing)"To see my So:sse Biene"

update on household:

(mom, i've gotten your messages...)

I am feeling better thanks to an antibiotic.
S has strep throat!
We're not sure on O. He was a little quiet and clingy when he woke up from his nap today.

I'm so proud of myself. I made some granola today. It's pretty delicious too, if I may say so...especially good with yogurt and bananas :) O had a heaping pile full. He kept calling it "oatmeal". He really likes oatmeal. Really.

My friend L gave me some in exchange for apple butter a little while back. She uses this recipe. I've already got some ideas for some add-ins, like vanilla and cinammon. Yum!

I'm working up the courage to make my own yogurt and bake my own bread soon. Any tips?

i have bronchitis. ick.
