Babies, babies, babies! Usually, we think of babies and births in the spring, but lately, I'm having baby withdrawals. I'm missing having a baby in the family. My children are adults and no anywhere near thinking about making me a happy grandmother. A *young* grandmother. :)

My mother-in-law once said that just when you get good at taking care of babies, they grow up and that's why grandparents are so wise. Well, I thought I'd share some of my time-tested, tried-and-true tips for dealing with two of the most troubling baby dilemmas: crying and teething.
