Snow Cone Makers

A few years ago Jeff insisted we purchase a Mickey Mouse snow cone maker. I rolled my eyes thinking it was an overpriced toy. My opinion of the snow cone maker changed when it proved to have healing powers. =) During those awful times when our home is hit with a nasty stomach bug (like NOW) the snow cones are fabulous way to keep everyone hydrated. Our kids will not go anywhere near Pedialyte even in popsicle form. However, they are all over the snow cones laced with another electrolyte drink! Something about the gradual melting of the ice that cures the cotton mouth without bloating sick tummy.

Mommy was first up to bat, now poor Wyatt. Wyatt who is still fighting a cold we all acquired two weeks ago. He is on antibiotics for a double ear infection, still has a cough and congestion, now this. Poor kiddo.

If I were to create a basket of favorite things for a new mom, snow cone maker, boogie wipes, otoscope, Motrin and a cool mist humidifier would be in there!
