These photos are fun, but most importantly they show who they are.

What to do for skin dryness in a newborn
Have you ever heard the term "smooth as a babies butt?" Yeah me too, and I feel like I was LIED to. My children came out with perfect skin for maybe 2 weeks and then the newborn skin dryness arrived.
