Hello, my name is Danielle Peek, and I'm a Purell-oholic.

I was noticing how much of this stuff I have around today, and seriously, I have to give the makers of Purell a shout out - I go through this product like water. I keep a small bottle in my purse, one in my diaper bag, in my church bag, in the car, on the dresser, on the changing station (just to tie me over until I can make it to the sink and really wash), and a big bottle in the kitchen. And I have to say, the addition of Aloe and Vitamin E are quite welcome, as my hands are considerably less raw from using it lately. Rylee uses it so much she's developed her own term for applying it to her hands: "hanitizing." So thank you, Purell people. Without your product, I would feel much less at peace with this incredibly germy world we live in.

On a side note, I was watching Nim's Island earlier (love that show!), and I have to say I can totally relate to Jodie Foster's character, Alex. I am certainly not afraid to leave the house, but I am borderline afraid to leave without my Purell!

Anyone else as addicted to this stuff as I am?

I am not addicted, but I do like the stuff! I too have some in my car, in both bathrooms and on the changing table (when I had to worry about that.... I love him being potty trained!) I actually just tell Dillon to use that to wash his hands after he uses the bathroom so that I don't have a water mess to clean 100 times a day... I think that gets the job done! Thank you purell!

I too love this product, although I wouldn't say I'm addicted! I figure a little dirt never hurt anybody. But it definitely comes in handy to have sanitizer readily available!!

Thank you for your lovely words on my cards on 2 peas.

I am totally addicted. Ross says that I should have purchased a lot of stock in Purell. I have it everywhere too. What a great invention. I think how did I survive without it with my first baby??
