Dear Internet Moms....HELP!

Hi internet moms! Yeah, even you over there in the corner. I, the all knowing, needs help. Major help. As you know I have 6 month old twin girls and a 3 year old girl. I'm having some problems and I need advice. Here goes...

Twin S is teething (we think) and she drools ALOT. Her little chin stays red and chapped. She wears a bib and I wipe as much as I can but it doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions on what I can do to prevent it?

Big girl (our 3 year old) REFUSES to take a nap. I lay her down everyday at 1, everyone takes a nap then. She will not go to sleep which would be fine but by 5pm she is a devil. Oh the whining, and moaning and arguing...by 5:15 my head wants to explode. Any suggestions? We have tried letting her watch a Dora the Explorer (gag) movie if she takes a nap...she could care less.

I would try vasoline on the chin. its pure, no additives, it works great on hands and diaper rash. I think the quiet time thing is good and sleepnig a litte later or going to bed earlier in the evening. Happy Mothering, Lynn_in_md2004

Vaseline, definitely.

As far as the refusal to nap, that is just one of those things I failed at trying to conquer. My head exploded nearly every day when my youngest gave up her naps at two years. She is now 3 1/2 and hasn't had that whiny evening ritual in quite awhile.

Good luck!

And, I just have to tell you that I really, really love your blog design!

I'm a SAHM to 3 girls. We became foster parents in May 2006 in hopes of adoption. We love our girls and could never picture ourselves without them. Although life is much busier, we couldn't be any happier. Here's our story...
