Arctic Motherhood: April 2013
http://arcticmotherhood.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Before I knew it, my husband had returned, a changed man. Grandpa had lost his trailer, grandma had crashed into him, two separate events, and the trail was sketchy in places, but the cabin was nice and everyone had arrived safely. My husband brought the baby and me to join the others on a somewhat thrilling trail ride. From this point forward, the trip continued to surpass our expectations. The Salcha River Cabin and the Arctic Oven. The Tanana River Trip with the Arctic Oven. Would we get back safely?

Arctic Motherhood: The Eczema Puzzle
http://arcticmotherhood.blogspot.com/2013/05/the-eczema-puzzle.html
Or maybe it's atopic dermatitis or contact dermatitis or maybe it's an allergy of some type. Whatever it is, it is what I have been obsessing about for the past two months straight. Our eight month old daughter has extremely sensitive skin. If I was not an obsessive cleaner before (I was! I am now. The Dyson is working harder than ever and the floors are scrubbed. Is it people's dogs? Is it that we don't have a dog anymore? Maybe it's all of the pesticides in her cotton clothes? My Life in Focus.

Arctic Motherhood: The Routine

After she is dry, I put a thick layer of a thick oil, such as petroleum jelly, shea butter, or palm oil, all over her arms and legs. I used to reapply this layer at every diaper change, but it was not enough to hold the moisture not to mention very expensive. You should see the empty jugs and jars and containers I have collected! I think, in many ways, we are making progress. My Life in Focus. Fairbanks/North Pole, Alaska, United States. View my complete profile.

From baby girl to toddler from toddler to boy . The doctor said at well-checks the other day that the kids are growing beautifully. She must be right because it seems one of them always needs their drawers gone through because their pants won't button or their arms are sticking out of their sleeves. My Life in Focus.

Arctic Motherhood: Back to School
http://arcticmotherhood.blogspot.com/2013/10/back-to-school.html
It was recently time to go back to school. And for our younger son, it was the first time. He has been through two years of dropping his brother off at preschool and picking him up from preschool, twice a week, so I think that, along with everyone asking him all of the time if he's excited for preschool, helped to prepare him.

Arctic Motherhood: March 2013

Our Oldest is Five! When our son was born, five years ago today, I was truly amazed that he had all of his finger and all of his toes. I expected there to be a major obstacle but he has impressed, surprised us, made us laugh through the years. Today, with his music, his reading, his imagination and ideas, he continues to amaze.
