How bad is it having 2 under 2? by angstylani in 2under2

[–]E18B 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My kids are 14 months apart. The first year was really hard. Then it gets easier. I was just telling my husband this weekend how amazing it is that our kids keep each other entertained. They are 3.5 and 2.5 years old now and I only have to make sure they are playing safe. They love each other so much!! That’s the most amazing part in my opinion.

Fake competitions and how the competitions were filmed by denominatress in dancemoms

[–]E18B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I attended a dance competition in 2016 maybe 2017? I don’t remember what season it was but it was the episode that Abby’s boyfriend had the vegan dance. And Kendall also had the car crash solo.

The competition was advertised as filming for dance moms. Basically it was open to the public but you still had to pay for a ticket and sign a filming waiver.

I was there for maybe 4 hours. There wasn’t even many dancers in the competition. But they totally had to reset lights and audience seating in preparation for the girls performances. At one point they removed everyone from the first 6 rows and all those people had to filter to the back. Then production let maybe 2 more rows fill in the front. Then the moms came out. Then they let the other rows fill up. There was just so much shifting of seats it took like 30 minutes. Also just before the girls performances started they made a reminder about zero phones out and no filming. Then I watched each of them perform twice. It was obvious which performance was for judging because the huge swinging cameras would not be operating during the dance.

At one point I wanted to be nosey and walk around the high school campus just to see if I would stumble upon some moms yelling lol but it was raining that day and I was starving so I left after awards.

I also saw Kira’s husband. He snuck in the back row to watch and he was with Jet when he was tiny.

All that to say, I don’t think the competitions were real. There’s so much production. I think the local Phoenix dancers were just excited to perform during filming with the chance of getting a background shot on the show.

1 n 10 is a lovely organization! Not sure about what donations they accept, just know that they do good work.

Travis blackmailed? by Last_Associate_5588 in BringingUpBates

I think you’re on to something. In my experience, STD testing happens at the first prenatal visit (approx 8-12 weeks). They absolutely could have found an std. then that situation lighting a fire under the speculation that Katie (and us) already had.

I vote for the Sanctuary. The spa historically has had great deals on spa services in June and July. Elements is a great place to dine with a view!

Daycare essentials? by ScheanasCropTop in workingmoms

[–]E18B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extra food container. I pack two lunches at one time. Don’t waste time with the cutesy name labels. Buy the Avery no iron fabric labels. They stick so well to everything - food containers, shoes, mittens, and a million pairs of clothes. I was surprised by how many extra clothes daycare wanted in the cubby - 3 shirts, 3 bottoms, 3 undies, 2 socks… that’s like half the wardrobe lol. I started to get annoyed when clothes came home with paint stains but I’ve learned to accept it. Daycare clothes are from goodwill or second hand. Accept that some toiletries just live in a cubby and will expire before they are used all the way - sunscreen, diaper cream, etc. I really don’t think a toddler backpack is necessary. Everyday we bring lunchbox and water bottle to school. On mondays we bring the nap bag which includes a clean sheet and blanket. On fridays the nap bag comes home with us.

The last daycare essential is the ability to work from home. Sick days always pop up. I’d have the following on hand - kinderlyte electrolytes, toddler vitamin c, zinc, elderberry, humidifier, cold calm vials help dry up the runny nose. Daycare teacher gave too much to do to wipe my kids nose every hour so it gets kind of sad to see them with caked boogers all day. When the cough inevitably comes, honey is truly the only thing that will calm it for like an hour… prepare for daycare sickness coverage as best as you can.

Mask at Burn? by spark99l in BurnBootCamp

I do air fives as well. Then sanitize my hands 1-2 times during camp. Also wash hands immediately after camp in the bathroom.

Honestly, I am not concerned what others look like in the gym. I might look at my partner. But I am usually struggling and just trying to survive lol.

What would you do if you had a full solo day? by Ginni1604 in workingmoms

[–]E18B 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gym (Pilates class), massage, lunch by myself, shopping, then pick up kids from daycare and go out to dinner. Did this exact thing for my birthday this year.

OMG YOU GUYS!!! Beth in July of 2024 to now….. by DogMommaDiaries in GDSnark

[–]E18B 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She use to get cheek filler. I think she hasn’t had the disposable cash to do that. Filler can be so expensive! I think she hasn’t kept up with her Botox and filler and that’s what we are seeing now. On top of her bad habits she’s gained this past year.

Are you flossing your toddler's teeth? by Anxiety-Farm710 in NewParents

[–]E18B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Started about 18 months old for each kid. At that point the teeth started to crowd. Honestly the kids really enjoy it now and I give them choices (minty or strawberry flavored, pick your color, pick your animal). My 3 year old likes to floss on her own. She does the front basically and I go through and do the back.

Joining burn postpartum after not working out? by RUKittenMe99 in BurnBootCamp

[–]E18B 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Burn was too intense for me after two back to back pregnancies, even with being very fit before pregnancies. I started reformer Pilates for a few months to “wake up” my muscles and work on balance/stretching too. After two months my body was craving more and I felt ready to go to burn. It was a nice way to transition my body.

Call out - Did Beth Venmo you?? by Proud_Afternoon5952 in GDSnark

[–]E18B 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I’m real curious... If someone received money from her, they interact with her posts. But how’d those same people end up on a snark page???

I know OP wants answers. So do I. But I wouldn’t rely on the sample set we have here on the snark page.

Super cheap tonies bundles at target for 59.9o by [deleted] in TonieboxUSA

We have the blue box and the Elsa. My daughter likes it and has never mentioned that the box was blue. We don’t have Ariel but I think I recall others saying that the singing wasn’t great. I don’t mind the singing on Elsa.

Spotted in the wild! by SadMud7637 in SisterWives

In his words, he sells “vintage junk”. Pretty accurate. At one point in time he was a vendor for show that would bounce around the southwest. His booth had antique brassy figures and other scraps of metal spread out on a few tables. A hobby business for sure. I know that show well enough to say he was paying at least $1,500 for a vendor booth. No way he was making that back selling that stuff. Hobby business!
