3 Steps to Treat Diaper Rash with Boudreaux’s Butt Paste + Prize Pack Giveaway!
Diaper rash is a serious thing around here. The whole house pretty much stops as we try and make sure baby is comfortable and healing. The past few days, we have been dealing with a rash from the joy of teething. When my little guy has a rash, we turn to Boudreaux’s Butt Paste. I love the thick barrier that Boudreaux’s Butt Paste provides, which my pediatrician recommends.
About the Product:
Boudreaux’s Butt Paste is a powerful and fast acting diaper rash prevention product yet is free of the harsh butt-irritating ingredients like Parabens, Preservatives, Dyes, Phthalates and Talc ingredients included in some diaper rash ointments.
Boudreaux’s Butt Paste is available in three targeted formulas to help protect against and improve diaper rash – Original, Maximum Strength and All Natural
- The Original Formula – contains 16% Zinc Oxide which treats skin irritations by creating a barrier to seal out wetness
- The Maximum Strength Formula – contains 40% Zinc Oxide for over two times the rash fighting power as the Original Formula
- The All Natural Formula – In addition to 16% Zinc Oxide, this has been formulated with natural soothing and calming ingredients like Aloe Vera to soothe skin
There are 3 Easy Steps to Prevent Diaper Rash:
1. Clean- Change any wet or soiled diapers early and often.
2. Dry- Dry baby thoroughly before putting on a new diaper. For best results, air dry out of the bath.
3. Protect- Use any Boudreaux’s Butt Paste® ointment to seal out moisture and keep baby’s butt dry and free from rash.

Review: The Pray-ers: Book 1 “Troubles”
I’ve been reading The Pray-ers / Book 1 Troubles, written by Mark S. Mirza and published by CTM Publishing Atlanta, over the past couple weeks as part of the Homeschool Review Crew. The book sounded intriguing so I was eager to read it.
About the Author:
The author, Mark S. Mirza, led the men’s prayer ministry for Dr. Charles Stanley at First Baptist Church in Atlanta, GA. Through his website, he desires to help teach men how to start prayer groups.
About the Book:
The Pray-ers is a fictional book Through the book, author Mark S. Mirza shows the depth of the prayer lives of three different people in different eras. It covers the First Century, 19th Century, and Current Day. The people followed through the book are Epaphras (from the Bible), a track coach from UGA, and a pastor. The Pray-ers shows the dynamics of what may be happening in the spiritual realm between demons and angels that humans can’t see and how prayer relates to circumstances.
My Thoughts:
Overall, I enjoyed the read, but it was quite hard to follow. Bouncing back and forth between characters in the beginning was difficult trying to remember which one was doing what and to not get them confused.
The other thing that I wanted to point out is that the book starts out very slow. It drags and was almost painful to read, but as the book progressed, I enjoyed it more.
Throughout The Pray-ers, different Bible verses were worked into the dialog. I appreciated how the scripture references were noted at the bottom of the pages throughout so I could look back in my Bible to see the full verse.
It’s also important to note that this is not a children’s book, so I wouldn’t recommend allowing your children to read it until they are young adults due to some of the topics discussed throughout.
One thing I noticed off the bat is that the book needs further editing. I noticed several typos that need to be addressed in future versions.
As a final note, I wasn’t able to finish the book before I writing this review, but I do plan to finish it. I’m about halfway through. It’s a pretty heavy read so it’s something that I try to read after the kids are in bed so I can focus. Definitely not a light read, but it really made me think and I appreciate that.

Books on My Reading List
I thought it would be fun to share some of the books that I’ve been reading this year or plan to by the end of the year. One of my goals for the year was to pick up more books and read instead of just browsing facebook. It’s helped to have some great reading material. As you can likely see, I really enjoy the writing style of Paul David Tripp. He’s become my favorite author. Here are some of the books that I’ve been reading this year:

Creating a Simple and Stylish Baby Wardrobe with Carter’s
“This post is sponsored by Carter’s; however, all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own.”
My last baby turned 1 a little over a week ago. I cannot believe how fast time flew this past year. The sleepless nights are almost gone, but I still want to savor every little bit of babyhood that I can.
Throughout his first year of life, we have turned to Carter’s to keep him well dressed and comfortable. Now that he’s on the move, The Original Bodysuit makes it simple to slip on, snap, and then he can go back to exploring.
With a 100% cotton Carter’s Original Bodysuit, he can quickly transition from relaxing at the house to going out for a day by simply adding coordinating pants and shoes. Carter’s baby clothing holds up well for his adventures and antics.
A simple 5 pack of Carter’s The Original Bodysuits is an essential and can enhance any baby wardrobe with color and fun. My favorite part about Carter’s bodysuits is the expandable shoulders at the neckline. If my son makes a huge mess, I don’t have to pull it up over his head! I can slip his arms out through the top and just pull the whole bodysuit down his body at his feet. No mess on his face and less mess for me! As we approach toddlerhood, I know I’ll be using that method of changing him more often!
The baby clothes designs offered by Carter’s are always stylish with fun colors and sayings. This Mr. Adorable set is totally perfect for my little guy! This particular set came as a 3 pack, which included the short sleeve bodysuit, long sleeve bodysuit, and the adorable bear-on-the-bottom pants.
With this set, my son is completely ready for fall here in Georgia since some days we need long sleeves and some days we are still wearing short sleeves. Plus I just loved the bears and the campers!
Many of the sayings are funny, but true as well, such as this one. “Daddy & I Agree – Mommy’s the Boss”. Just have to laugh and smile at it! With this bodysuit, you can add pants and the zippered hoodie to be ready for venturing out on cooler fall days. If it gets too warm, drop the hoodie and you still have a fun and stylish set. The bodysuits are easy to mix and match with other items in his wardrobe.
