The "Squirt"... how have we lived without it??

This just about does it for me. Having 4 kids, I've seen my fair share of baby care inventions. This tops them all.I was at the grocery store last night and this strange object caught my eye:SQUIRT the baby food dispensing spoon.See, the fat end of the "spoon" is like a hollow bulb that you fill with the baby food. Then, you squeeze the bulb part and it "squirts" (thus the name) the baby food into...

Cheez-It Cereal

Emelie and Jonathan were outside riding bikes, since they had a day off from school.Emelie came in and got a snack of water and Cheez-Its for herself and her brother.About 10 minutes later, Jonathan came back in carefully carrying his bowl into the kitchen, like he was trying not to spill something. Curious, I asked what was in the bowl.He said..."Emelie gave me some of her water so I could make Cheez-It cereal. It was really GOOD!"Boys are gross. Funny, but gro...
