DrKim — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 12:06:05 +0000

We have come to the end of our 21 day family-wide detox. It’s crazy how time flies, even during a time like this one when you’re looking forward to the end. I suppose working to raise 5 kids, homeschooling 2 and keeping a handle on the house will keep anyone busy enough to make time …

Myths & Facts About Diapers

DrKim — Tue, 18 May 2010 04:41:00 +0000

The folks at Pampers evidently feel the need to clear up some “confusion” regarding diapers. Specifically, regarding the debate between those backwards non progressing tree hugging natural crunchy cloth diaper users and normal modern people. They actually have this myths and facts page on their site. Here’s one of the (humorous? Unbelievable?) highlights for me. …
