    OT-6 months to fully potty train our little boy... HELP!

    I was blessed with a little girl who was literally potty trained in a week at two. I assumed (like an idiot) that I would be able to do this again with two boys. :rotfl: NOPE. Nick took about 6 months. He was 2.5 when he was in underwear. We started at two. I had felt like a bit...

    When did your child stop using...

    My daughter was easy to switch to a sippy. She switched to the hard playtex sippies by 10 months for most drinking. I think she was in a high chair till almost two, but mainly because she was petite and still is. The boys were using sippies till they were three.. but they are messy and...

    Transition to and type of sippy cup

    I know a lot of others have already recommended the nuby, but I thought I would just mention that they now have a nuby bottle that comes with a wide mouth top, and the wide mouth nipple, then they also include the nuby sippy spout and the nuby sports bottle top, all with caps. I liked...

    The Scariest Movie You've Ever Seen...

    I saw Poltergeist at four.. Yeah my uncle was not a good babysitter. I am STILL 28 years later, afriad of clowns. They completely freak me out. I am more likely to have a nightmare about some kind of weird movie like the hill have eyes or something like that. Not really movies with Freddy...

    OT -- What is a Stay At Home Christian?

    Just wondering if most of you who go to church regularly attend a church of the same denomination that you grw up with? I tend to find that in terms of most of my friends, that the ones still attending church are the ones that are still in the area they grew up in and going to the church...

    Why don't people plan things better?

    Wow, I'm really really surprised that they would even leave the classes go, I know our school district has special rules to follow regarding student to teacher/chaperone. They are something like 5 kids to every 1 adult. It's a big difference from when I was in school. I remember a trip to...

    what do you say?

    Thank you to everyone for your hugs. :) While we were pretty upset about the baby, we still had a baby to spoil, since she JUST turned one two weeks ago. Had it not been for her, I think things might have been harder and ironically, with Steve out of work and the fire, I was really to busy to...

    what do you say?

    So, we were planning a trip in April. We were just about to make our reservations and dh started getting nervous about the economy and having second thoughts. It was almost too ironic when he got layed off right afterwards, so we decided to hold off on the vacation. Well, since then so...

    Does anyone have late church services on Christmas Eve?

    We went when we were little, because my grandparents went and god forbid anyone would miss mass. It was a holy day of obligation, so we went. Now that I am older with my own kids, I have decided that there is no way I am taking four kids to mass at midnight, esp if it is cold. I doubt...

    OT: Question about funeral and kids

    I don't see why the kids would need to be there. They never met him and it's not like he is going to mind.. no snarkiness intended.. I just mean, if they went it would only be for the other relatives to see them there. If your grandparent had died and a cousin of yours was in the same...

    Venting - Why do my sisters have to ruin my mom''s birthday

    I'll be honest I'd be a little disappointed if we didn't have our traditional thanksgiving dinner, but at the same time, I don't think I would get all bent out of shape about it. I do think it was crappy of your sisters to make her cook an entire thanksgiving dinner on her birthday...

    OT- How much is the going rate for a babysitter?

    I'm in PA and we pay $10/hour. That's for our 3 older kids. The baby goes to my mom's or my sister's place. I don't ask her to do much though, we don't bother with bath time or anything else. I usually have them ready for bed before we go out. Already fed, etc. A friend of mine...

    Maybe I'm in the minority but I loved having my diaper bag. LOL We have four, I love having my diaper bag.. even when I don't have the baby with me I have some sort of diaper bag. Even when I just go out with my DD7, I take an extra shirt, some snacks, a book..etc. I just love to have extra...

    I see you're located in the pocono mountains. I'm close to there myself. You might want to call down to the Lehigh Valley Hospital. I know when I was in college a friend of mine from out of state got an immediate appt there. I think they have clinic hours. I would assume given the...
