-My husband. He is an amazing father and has an endless supply of ideas for entertaining OBB. He is also able to construct/fix anything, which in the past month has included installing an alternator in my car, building two lamps for my mommy group auction and outfitting the closet in the baby's room to be more space efficient. Plus, he's a really fun guy to hang out with.
-Firetrucks and various other emergency vehicles. Whether their lights are flashing or not, these trucks provide welcome distraction for OBB when he's not getting his way or when I need him to forget about the toy he's asking for in the back seat of the car that I can't reach. "Look! A Firetruck!" fixes a lot of problems for me.
-Ice. When it's 90-plus degrees outside, there isn't much that makes a sippy cup better (and a two year old quiet) than lots of ice.
- Neighbors. We really do have great neighbors. Our one couple across the street not only made dinner for us on Wednesday night this week, but also babysat OBB while I went to get blood work done. They're just good folks.
-Claritin. For kids. This miracle medicine has changed OBB's life over the past month. No more sinus infections. No more going to the doctor every six weeks for another dose of antibiotics. It's great stuff.
-Watermelon. I really love watermelon. Especially watermelon that is pre-cut and sitting in the fridge waiting only for me to come at it with a fork. Cantaloupe is a close second.
So what's making your life easier these days?
