I don't care what kind of day you are having, if you watch this video it will become a much better day. Science is amazing! Especially when it gives this sweet baby a gift that we all cherish, the sound of his mother's voice
People love to put babies in strange places, they do that with dogs too, but it's a bigger concern for me when it's a child. This might look like harmless fun but we all know sooner or later "down will come baby cradle and all". W
Sea salt, energy drinks, low fat... you gotta be careful not to be sucked in to the "pitch" of the food manufacturers! The more you know, the better you do. One thing I have learned is to shop around the OUTSIDE perimeter of the store. That's where the good-for-you stuff is.
I am very blessed to have two healthy children. I have a son who is 16 and a daughter who is 13 and thinks she is 25. I like to think that I am a good enough soul that I love them exactly for who they are and not what I think they should be. However, the question has been raised if you could choose the gender of your child, but you can only have one, which would you choose? Here is what a recent Gallup Survey suggests.
Dad's are full of .....advice, yeah lets go with advice. I can say that because I am a Dad and sometimes I don't listen to the advice I give my kids. That is when things usually go horribly wrong. Like that time Dad decided to show the kids how to really have fun on the trampoline
I am registered with the National Marrow Donor Program. So is Jude, so is Krista, so is Tracy, so are many of the people who work here at 97.3 The Dawg.

Two of our St Jude Kids need bone marrow tranplants, one has found a match, the other is still searching. Here is all you need to do.
Money, it's transportation, it gets you where you want to go. The more you have the faster you can get there. It doesn't make you smarter but you can sure seem like a dummy if you don't know how to watch your pennies. Your kids need to know about money too. Oddly enough, keeping them without money is not the best way to teach them responsibility. You need to be upfront and truthful with your children so they learn the cold hard facts about managing cold hard cash.
There are a lot of things you can purchase if you are a new parent. A vast majority of those things are basically useless and will take up space in your home until you have that garage sale when your child is older. We have found on Yahoo a great bit of information that every new Mom and Dad need to know, the items and gadgets that are a MUST have and the ones you can live without.
I should also add to that headline, Chore Wars: How you can get your kids to help around the house without having to yell, scream or threaten them with bodily harm. I remember as a kid we had chores that we had to do. If you wanted to play outside, watch TV or have a soda pop you had to have your chores done. My kids are very helpful around the house, if you remind them time and time again that need to be helpful around the house. Voila, I have stumbled upon the secret to getting even the little ones involved in dishes, laundry and dusting. Want to know how to do it?
There is a line from a song I am quite partial too that says Don't try to describe the ocean if you've never seen it, in other words, don't expect people to learn from experiences they've never had. Teaching kids how to manage money is a lot like pushing a rope. You can do it, it's frustrating and quite often you wonder why you're even trying.
