SAN DIEGO MOVE

In just one week this gandchild decided to try to walk.  A move to San Diego must have made the difference.  I suppose I will miss many firsts but skype and the phone and texting and photos should help me keep up.  How do you stay in touch with your grandchildren who don't live near you?

SUNBURN on BABIES

Use sunblock, not sunscreen on little babies and children.  This eight month old had sunscreen on and her face go so read and started to blister.  Fair skinned and never out in the sun.... beware.  SUN BLOCK and plenty of it.  Aloe Vera from the plant, not the supermarket worked pretty well.  Be careful... www.twofortheroadusa.com

Any Suggestions?

How uncomfortable can you get.  I know car seats are safe for the children but with her neck all to the side I really worried about her safety if we were rear ended or had some kind of accident.  Does anyone know if there is an additional neck roll or something you can purchase to keep her head up straight and safe. I bunched up a blanket at one point and tried to even out her neck... five

Gift Idea for Grandmothers - Happy Mother's Day

This was a great surprise on Mother's Day... a funky, hip necklace with all the grandchildren's names in different shapes and sizes.  My daughter Julia found a woman who custom designs them off the internet.  As you can see fashion for wearing kids around your neck has changed ... one on left in gold from l976.

KENTUCKY DERBY HATS WITH HISTORY

Jane's mother who is 96 years old suggested her friends borrow some of her hats for a Kentucky Derby party in the neighborhood.  How generous I thought, and why would someone have enough hats for twenty women.  It turns out that when she sold her beautiful hat shop, that she owned in the l940's to the l980's she had over 500.






I've been told that many went to museums but the 100 or so that

There is nothing like a luxurious vehicle, especially when you are having a ladies’ night out – no husbands, no babies, just the girls. Of course, I offered to drive since I was test driving the 2012 Chrysler 300 SRT8 and had no intention of drinking. We all exchanged
