Posted by: cate on: January 23, 2008

both the boys have problems with stuffy noses. their noses are clogged with “boogies” all the time. thankfully, they’ve gotten used to the constant wiping, the use of the snot-sucker, and mom picking their noses all day long. Zander learned how to blow his nose at a fairly young age. by the time he was [...]

Zander was [...]
