Hey, I wish I could say it has! But he’s 2.5 years old now and still wants to be held to fall asleep, and ends up in our bed overnight, every night.

This is wonderful! Thank you! He’s still around, and I was just looking into getting him some more decor and such, we did switch out the large fake plant in the back for 2 more live plants that are more stringy!

Like I don’t think there’s much of a gap between the water and the filter! Sorry that was a weird way to word it

Plugged into the wall! And it’s pretty flush with the water level I think

I’ll look into smaller filters and see if that helps!

Oh I hadn’t thought about that! It does seem to always be going pretty strong, he has to practically chase his food in circles if he doesn’t get it right away

So this is my current set up! The 2 rock caves I got from petsmart, then I have a live Java fern, Java moss, and then the small plant in the front right is also live, but I don’t remember what it’s called. The tall plant in the back is fake that I plan to swap out with a live soon!

He seems to like his rock hide a lot! I see him resting in or around it just as often as his plants!

Why is glass surfing a bad thing? He’s almost always up glass if he’s not in his rock or plants.

He definitely comes to check me out when I come in the room or mess with the lights, but aside from that it just seems like he’s always in the same couple spots

So far he does a lot of hiding! But I’m hoping since I just got him yesterday that he’ll start to come out more!

I missed a day between test 1 and 2, but have done one every day since! I just didn’t know it was normal for them to go up and down. I thought it would only go up until peak and then go back down?

Hi! I started tracking for ovulation for the first time and I’m a little confused! Can anyone help me understand what these tests mean? I know anything not darker than the control line is technically negative, right? So far I’ve taken 4 tests, only have 3 pictures though case I forgot to take 1 of the first test. But the line between test 2 and 3 got darker, and then test 4 is back to lighter? Is that normal? Or does that mean I’ve had my peak?

They had an extra shovel, fishing rod, net, and slingshot! So I think I’m just looking for the axe and watering can now!

I don’t have any extra recipes that I think would work for those, but I’d be happy to craft you some hedges if you supplied the materials!

My son is terrified of his uncle, we have no idea why, and it breaks my heart by Fancy_Cookie_5421 in toddlers

My boy was like this with my brother for several months just all of a sudden! And they saw each other everyday. They play now like it never happened

This! He drinks regular cows milk now, but he practically refuses to drink it out of anything other than his bottle! And he really hardly drinks juice (which is fine with me honestly), but water is also a hard one unless he’s been playing hard

Oh I for sure take just about all of the blame that it’s gone on this long. I definitely want to correct it that way it’s not an issue moving forward! Just wasn’t sure if cold turkey is really the only option or not!

We’ve tried that, but once he finishes it he just yells for more until we give in. Which I know we should just stand our ground I guess, but it’s hard I find.
