Blythe can help you with all your baby and toddler questions!! I’m Refreshing My Blog (and Bust Ghosts) Updating old blog content is a bit like digital archaeology: you head in to dust the archives and end up unearthing questionable life choices from years ago. Between the over-filtered photos and advice that’s aged like room-temperature milk, the past can be… loud. The Ghost in the Machine: Lately, I’ve been dealing with a resident spirit: The Ghost of Peanut Butter and Whine. This digital poltergeist has been causing chaos behind the scenes: The 2026 Refresh Plan: I’m giving my archives a facelift to keep my blog traffic climbing and my readers happy. Here’s my step-by-step exorcism: Stick Around Please Don’t let this be a “one and done” visit.

Oh, the price of sight. It’s not cheap that’s for sure. I’ve been researching having Lasik done. What about you? Is Lasik something that you have thought about?  Everyday I wear contacts, that’s just to see!! To be able to read anything I have to wear glasses on top of the contacts.

In some cases they can even cause significant breathing difficulties and require hospitalization, especially with young children and babies. Unlike the viruses that cause the common cold, influenza is preventable with the flu vaccine. Avoid people with colds. During the winter season, viruses are everywhere and frequently passed from person to person. If a grandparent has the sniffles, they shouldn’t be giving kisses to their new grandchild. If your kiddo has a cough, they…
