Chick-fil-A and a good bath...

As many of you know from Facebook, Blakeley has developed a terrible diaper rash - AGAIN! Thursday night was full of tears as she did not want anyone touching her bottom, and even did not want to take a bath! Bath time is usually a very happy time, and last night it was not.

I received a lot of great advice from friends on didn't remedies I could try to help soothe my sweet baby girl. (Thanks y'all!) But this morning I decided I didn't want to waste money on something that may not work - so I called the doctor and asked if they could call anything in for me, and luckily they did!

Knowing that Blakeley had a rough day (and rough for her still involves tons of hugs and smiles - just some tears at changing time) I decided I would pick her up early and bring her to Colorguard practice with me - which was not super smart because it is still blazing hot! But she honestly loved walking around and dancing to the band's music. After practice we stopped by Chick-fil-a, because let's face it - Chick-fil-a might as well be like the modern day chicken noodle soup, it can heal the soul. And as you can see below, it slowly started working its goodness...




So sleepy, but this fry is sooooo good! Yum-o!



Nuggets and fries work like a charm!




Then we had to take a bath (b/c we got really sweaty outside) - and this time I remembered to not put any bubbles, but baking soda instead. She still didn't want to sit down like last night...






And there were some small tears....






but then Mommy worked really hard to get a smile...





And sometimes, Mommy is really good at making someone smile....








And someone is really good at splashing!!





SINGING!!!








LAUGHING!!!!!!!!!!!






Then we came back downstairs and had some "naked, let the bottom breathe time."





Someone LOVES naked time!


And this is how we ended the night! Happy with clothes and diaper on
