Y’all…I’m dying. DYING of laughter. If you have not gone through & read the vomit stories, PLEASE DO IT on this lovely Friday afternoon. It is so worth it & will make you smile. People with vomit in their mouths. Someone compared the taste of Alimentum to “Tossing A Salad.” & poor Amy got barfed all over on her wedding day.
They were all so fantastic that I used Random.org & #232, aka Katy & her daughter, Aidan, are the winners! Katie, please email me at blairbear111@gmail.com & we’ll get it sent out to you! Congratulations!

As a working mom, I’m about to let you in on one of my best-kept secrets. This bad boy:
A Burp Blanket, compliments of Sullivan & Sawyer. A few weeks ago, I was lamenting on how often I come to work with vomit on my shoulder. & sometimes down my back because Harrison has this incredible talent of aiming right over the shoulder. So regular burp cloths, even cloth diapers, simply don’t cut it. Really, he’s better than most Olympians & I’m pretty sure he’d be on the gold medal stand in Baby Olympics. Gross, right? But that’s what happens when you a) have a child & b) have a child with reflux. You get puked on. & it’s pretty much LAW that the moment you put on something nice & are two steps from your front door, your child pulls a Reagan & you need a young priest & an old priest to get the peas off your t-shirt.
The owner of Sullivan & Sawyer had the same issue, saying, “I was just sick of getting barfed on & it all going on my shoulder & down my chest.” & so the Burp blanket was born. (side note: this is NOT a sling. please do not carry your child,small canine, or grocery produce in it)
& my dry cleaning bill thanks it. Profusely.
She also makes paci ties that are DARLING & half the price of ones you find in store (meaning that Harrison’s paci stays on his person & not on the floor of Baby Gap, praise God) & my personal favorite, the bib clips:
Let’s say you’re out to dinner or it is laundry day & the only thing clean is a dish towel. It’s chicken-rice from a jar time for the tot, so you snag the dish towel, clip each end, & BAM! you have a bib.
(enter in where I wish I was this talented & creative to think of such things!)
