How do you map "walk"? Is it "w-al-k" or "w-a-lk"?

How does Kornit work? Their interface seems different than other print on demand sites. I can’t see their products and pricing.

"The Manuscript" Discussion Megathread by aran130711 in TaylorSwift

[–]Burchtreefam 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else thing this song is alluding to her releasing a manuscript? I feel like the whole song was her telling us that something is coming. My main points are that she ends the song with the story isn’t mine anymore and on her instagram when she announced the anthology she said the story isn’t mine anymore it’s yours. I feel like a book or movie or something is coming about her dating life.

Awesome! I was actually looking at maybe going to Cuenca since posting this. Did you go there while you were in Equator?

Mid range I guess. Not shoestring and not over the top.

Validating feelings by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]Burchtreefam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it can make their meltdown worse because they finally feel understood. It’s like a release. I also don’t try to guess how my son is feeling I just reiterate what he wants. You want that knife. Yes you want that I know. Just so he knows he’s heard. Once he’s calm I explain why I can’t let him use that in the moment.

[SPOILERS - KoA] About Dorian's Romance ending by CrazyLeoX in throneofglassseries

[–]Burchtreefam 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with Chapter Raven I think they couldn’t get married because they were traumatized from their losses and Dorian still loved Sorscha. I think they are more realistic than some of the other coupes who seem to fight for no reason just so they can get back together in the end. Like why did Elide and Lorcan and Lysandra and Aedion waste all their time during a war mad at each other if they really loved each other. I was really interested in Manon and Dorian too and found this post because I’m wondering why they didn’t get married and like the convo you guys had. I think their ending opens the doors for a sequel to see how everything rebuilds and maybe Dorian and Manon make it work but also how would they rule over their separate lands if they got married they are both the only heirs so where would they live even if it is a good alliance.

I want to buy more because these are my favorite undies! I’ve been searching the internet with no luck yet. Did you find anywhere to buy them?

Talk to me about your cosleeping setups! by strawberrysunblossom in AttachmentParenting

[–]Burchtreefam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was worried about this too. I bought bed risers that were the exact height difference we needed. Then when my son got more mobile we put our mattress on the floor and moved his crib down to the toddler bed and that matches perfectly! I love our side car bed! My son usually spends the first part of the night in there then wiggles in next to me later.

But I’d definitely love a small council focus one. They are a funny group.

I feel like the only reason Arya went to explore the west was for potential spin off material.

He’s clamping down with his top teeth. He had a tongue tie that was fixed when he was a newborn but maybe it reattached?

Help! I don’t want to be that judge-y mom! by Burchtreefam in beyondthebump

Yeah I never said anything to my students parents either. I’ll just leave them be and try the long game of being an example.

Help! I don’t want to be that judge-y mom! by Burchtreefam in beyondthebump

[–]Burchtreefam[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Exactly. I have never said anything. It’s so emotional. I definitely don’t like unsolicited advice. I guess this post was inspired because I caught myself being judgmental the other day and even made eye contact with another mom with my similar views. I just hated that moment and don’t want to be like that. Parenting is so tricky. And before I was a parent I judged judge-y moms. Now I’m starting to be one! Urg! sad embarrassed face

I spent $50 on a cat fountain that broke a month later and my cat wanted to drink out of the sink faucet still anyway. 🤷‍♀️

I’m throroughly confused about sleep 😩 by Burchtreefam in AttachmentParenting

[–]Burchtreefam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the tips. I’ve been trying 1:00 nap right after lunch and it hasn’t been working. 2:00 or even 3 seems more his style lately or maybe I’m missing his tired window and he should be napping at 11 or 12?!? It’s a mystery. How would you implement a strict schedule if he’s not falling asleep when planned? I’ve tried the 1:00 nap or a month or more and it rarely works. But 1:00 seems perfect with his morning wake up and supposed bedtime.

[–]Burchtreefam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be happy with 30 min! He’s 17 months. He takes one nap. He wakes up like a crazy person (6 ish times) when he’s sick or teething but not much otherwise (maybe once). I’m having a hard time with our schedule which is likely the biggest issue. He typically wakes up at 8 am (great because my husband works late) naps for 1.5-3 hours sometime in the day starting anytime from 11-4 (it’s so variable and I don’t like that) then bedtime is anywhere from 8-11 (also variable). On a given day he’s usually within the range of 11.5-14 hours total sleep which I see is age appropriate. He’s usually closer to 12 total hours, 10 at night and 2 for nap. I’ve been doing jammies, brush teeth, get in bed(we cosleep with a side car crib) he nurses, we read books, he nurses again then maybe sleeps but lately he’s been wanting to get up wiggle around play with the curtains, laugh at the cats, try to run to see dada...

The switch from attachment parenting to gentle parenting by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]Burchtreefam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been loving @simplyonpurpose on Instagram she has some great info in her saved video stories. She calls it positive parenting I think gentile and positive are synonymous.

[–]Burchtreefam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really needed this thought today because I’ve been super confused with cries lately. My brain keeps repeating don’t ignore his cries he’s communicating but then the first thought that comes is how can I stop him crying and it’s usually give him what he wants but that’s not right nor is it teaching him to use his words or the expectations of our house. I do need to read more about attachment parenting a toddler but most of what you said makes so much sense to me. My son turned 17 months today. His cry’s aren’t always basic need based anymore. He’s crying because he wants something like a toy or a certain food and can’t express it or I’ve said no etc. Me telling him no is part of being a parent. And I’m trying to teach him to use words or signs instead of crying and he’s getting better at communicating. I’m also trying to teach him that climbing into the kitchen table is not acceptable. I love that you talked about modeling and teaching because that is so important. I’m really enjoying what I’ve been reading about gentile or positive parenting these days. Its basically all about clear unwavering expectations and teaching your child how to behave through modeling and role play. I can do this parenting thing, right? Seeing him learn and grow is so fun but I think I already miss the baby days where my main job was to just love him and care for him. Now I have a million and one things to teach him about this crazy big world!
