New Year’s Eve in this state has always been a pyromaniac’s fantasy. Firecrackers and aerial fireworks are so abundant that the noise can be deafening and the smoke so thick that you can’t see 10 feet in front of you. I remember growing up with all the excitement of the new year and […]

This was a recent dilemma of one of Dr. DreamyMcSteamy’s patients whose 1-1/2 year old daughter stopped letting her brush her teeth. The little girl would clamp down on the toothbrush whenever her mom tried to brush her teeth and nothing would convince her to open up so the frazzled mom called our […]

My baby, Daredevil, just turned 1! (Where has the time gone?) So in true local tradition we had a big birthday party to celebrate his first year. Now that our two older boys were old enough to enjoy the party we decided to go all out with activities for the kids. […]

We (or I should say Karen) booked the 6:00 PM show for all of us at the Excalibur hotel for the first night of our big trip. We decided to walk from our hotel (Mandalay Bay) through the Luxor to the Excalibur, which was a great way to go since we did not […]

Is it too early to think about next Christmas? Honestly, yes! But right now Pottery Barn Kids (I love PBK) is having a sale on Christmas items like stockings for $9.99 and a tree topper for $12.99. Each of my kids has a PBK stocking. They are adorable and really good quality. […]

When it was announced that Disney’s The Lion King was coming to town I had to see it. TSO and I got tickets for ourselves and our two older boys (we arranged for our youngest to spend the afternoon with Grandma).
The show was amazing! The costumes and sets were breathtaking. The actors […]

Karen’s Post:
Travel sure got easier when we found the SafeGuard Go car seat. We had been looking for something that would be easier to travel with and TSO and I both agreed when we found the SafeGuard that it was the one to get (we actually needed two).
TSO was thrilled that the […]

Once my kids are old enough to tell me what they want to say to Santa I help them write a letter to him (until they are old enough to write it themselves). It is so much fun to hear the things they want to tell Santa about. This year a friend of […]

I hate to floss. Just ask Dr. DreamyMcSteamy’s hygienists. I have gotten scoldings from them on numerous occasions and my husband has given up on me long ago. Anyway, I try to be good about it, especially after my regular hygiene check-ups, but then always lapse back into laziness. I figure […]

This is a very easy and inexpensive gift idea. Great to have on hand for those last minute gifts (or for when someone gives you a gift unexpectedly and you don’t want to look like a deadbeat). We made these several years ago and the recipe is very tasty. It comes from […]
