Owen got a case of the craddle crap...er craddle cap. Being a "picker" I was constantly scratching and picking at his flakey little head. Miles hated it and would tell me to stop. But I didn't. I talked to a number of people about how to get rid of it. My friend Bridget told me about these scalp treatments she used to give her daughter, Paige. So I decided to give it a try. I was discouraged for a while cause it didn't seem to be working, but after a few times of giving him his "treatments," he seems to be dandruff free! Here are some step-by-step pictures of his fabulous scalp treatments.Step one: Rub Owen's scalp in baby oil gel about an hour before bath time and wrap his head up in a towel like a turban.
Step two: During bath time, scratch at his scalp to get as much of it up as I can, then scrub it with a brush before and after shampooing it.
Step three: Towel dry, moisturize and clothe the naked baby!

Aww!! I love turban baby. And I love that we can make our babies look all kinds of wacky and they can't do anything about it. Haha!
Glad that the cradle crap is gone now!! Yay!

How cute can a baby possibly be? But it was inevitable with the genes he was outright handed. Don't forget my part... LOL. Love grammy
