One Step Forward Two Steps Back
Dr. Cason on Oct 22nd 2008
In lieu of medicine Mondays on MommyMd.org I wrote about taking the time to play. I abandoned the idea of cleaning the kids rooms and played trains instead. I got that sweet picture above and it seemed to capture the lazy hazy days of the weekend. All was good. That is until the dishes overwhelmed [...]
This is What Happens When you Parent Alone
Dr. Cason on Oct 21st 2008
To all those parents doing it alone-my hat is off to you. Nay, I bow down and…and…Oh I don’t know what I do. All I know is that it’s hard and I can’t believe there are people who do this every day. With no breaks. For the next week, I’m a single working mommy to [...]
Off for a Ride
Dr. Cason on Oct 20th 2008
Do you notice that most of a child’s time is spent playing? We went to the exchange this weekend and had an hour to kill while the car was being worked on. Smiling boy didn’t hesitate. He jumped on a bike and off he went. “Hey!” I yelled and ran after him. He didn’t even [...]
My Middle Baby
Dr. Cason on Oct 19th 2008
Remember a few weeks ago when I said I was going to do the important but not urgent task of ordering the baby pictures I lost? Well they came in. I spent this afternoon flipping though memory lane. Sunshine girl sat on my lap- all 32 pounds and asked every little question that happened on [...]
Finally the Tooth is Out!
Dr. Cason on Oct 18th 2008
I got a call last night just as I was finishing my clinic- “Mommy! Guess what! I pulled my tooth out and it didn’t even hurt!” Don’t you think it changes her whole little face. BTW I love the curly whirlies around her face. She normally declares war on them and slicks her hair back [...]
Your Tooth Story
Dr. Cason on Oct 17th 2008
As you all know my oldest is losing her tooth. It’s actually not her first, she lost her bottom two back in January. It was quick sweet and followed by lots of money from the tooth fairy. But this top front tooth wants to hang on and is literally turning gray because the roots have [...]
Tooth Saver
Dr. Cason on Oct 16th 2008
There’s a little yellow box. It’s tiny and sitting next to me at my desk and it’s empty. That front tooth wants to hang on a little while more. Plus Blue Eyes keeps saying, “No don’t put a string around it, attach it to a door and then slam it!” Where’d she get that? We’re [...]
Little Alley
Dr. Cason on Oct 15th 2008
The best part of the Bali cooking school was just hanging out and sinking into the culture.

How Do You Make Medical Decisions for Your Child?
Dr. Cason on Oct 13th 2008
Busy Busy finishing lunch and the afternoon begins in a few seconds. Medicine Mondays at MommyMD.org will be up later. Probably after the kids have gone down and I’m taking some deep breaths following a busy clinic of flu shots and bronchiolitis. Make sure you go and take a look-I’ll be talking about making medical decisions [...]
