I almost bought a little teddy this weekend for Sophia's first Valentines Day, but it wasn't holding a rose like i wanted. Also its very windy/rainy in Portland this time of year, and i don't want it to blow away from her headstone, or for the cemetary maintenaince to take it like they usually do.
Does anyone have an idea for how i could give my baby a present or some kind of remembrance on this Vday? And what are you doing for your angels?

I like planting flowers. You could also bring potted flowers. I love those baby rose plants that you can get. I would call the cemetary and complain though if things are coming up missing.

the cemetary we have is horrible. They have rules for how long things can stay at a gravesite and timelines for fake flowers and teddy bears. They only care about how their cemetary looks to people even though its overcrowded. I wish i hadn't buried her there but its too late...

I hadn't thought about celebrating Valentine's day. Perhaps, I'll send a book to someone in memory of Annaya.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
