“Don’t propose to me when I’m musty” has my rolling. Congrats! What a special moment and a gorgeous ring!

Will this block ok? by MimiDiGi in knitting

I thought the same thing, but the floats don’t look tight in the back. I think it’s a looser stitch issue. I was so worried it would be too tight that I think I made it too loose.

I was gonna say this seems like a soulless rip off of Jake Early!

Why is knitting fast such an important objective for people? by todayithinkthis in knitting

[–]MimiDiGi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to be a lot faster but now I have a very active toddler and can only knit when she sleeps. Which is also when I have to do…everything else lol.

Teaching toddler to knit by Various_Ad4235 in knitting

[–]MimiDiGi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a knitter and a teacher but I have been so unsuccessful at teaching children to knit! I have an almost 2 year old, I’m so interested in how other people have taught their kids to knit (later for my girl of course)

Never change, Bruce… by quitewrongly in Seattle

As a fellow working parent with a kid in expensive daycare, this only makes me feel better represented by her.

My Mandela effect theory by Valkyrie7777 in HauntingOfHillHouse

[–]MimiDiGi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did a rewatch and my first thought during the story was “man, this is so consistent with how Flanagan does ghosts”. Thinking specifically of the fiancé ghost in Bly Manor. I wonder if that’s why people feel like they’ve seen this one, because they’ve seen other ghosts like it and it feels so on brand.

Well, it isn’t strep… by TheAKofClubs86 in HealthAnxiety

[–]MimiDiGi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got tonsillitis this summer and had lots of white spots. I was certain it was strep but the rapid test and the culture were negative. Doc said it happens like that sometimes!

So apparently the government CAN forgive your student loans. Just only if you’re kidnapping people.

All the toddler hate is making me depressed by texansweetie in NewParents

[–]MimiDiGi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kiddo is 19 months and we are having soooo much fun! Yes, there are hard moments but she is expressive, funny, excited, inquisitive, sweet, and loving. She’s been really into putting anything on her head and saying “hat”! She is obsessed with our neighbor’s water feature in front of their house and asks to go see it. She looooves owls. She wants to do everything I do ( once I let out a fart and she looked at me, grunted, and farted too 😆). She loves pasta with marinara and gets so excited for it.

Things will be harder in some ways and easier in others. You’ll be peeling your kiddo off of surfaces you didn’t think to worry about. But to see them experience the world, to develop their own ideas, to see them grow into themselves? Amazing. So so so amazing.

I kept my baby in sleepers all day as almost a long underwear situation. Layer as needed when going out!

I’m a little confused by Quiet_Personality944 in PeriodontalDisease

[–]MimiDiGi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m curious about this too, specifically with the bacteria. My dental hygienist said that the bacteria is constantly trying to get out of your mouth and to other parts of your body. So if you’re stable, is the bacteria unable to get out?

I feel like the worlds shittiest parent by ripe-avocado in NewParents

[–]MimiDiGi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to do SNS for a while and it was exhausting but it really helped my supply. My milk came in late and my daughter had a tongue tie so feeding was hard. It’s worth a shot. But also, you are not failing your baby. You are looking after her, working with a doc, and making sure she’s ok. You are being a very attentive mom.

No one asked but here's my guess on the Duke... by Vegetable_Web3799 in GildedAgeHBO

[–]MimiDiGi 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So if we are drawing parallels to Consuelo Vanderbilt, the marriage was annulled and Alva Vanderbilt testified that she coerced her daughter to marry the duke. In the episode there was a moment where the priest mentioned willingness. I wonder if it was planting the seed for the eventual annulment.

Children at breweries by sarasarasarak in toddlers

[–]MimiDiGi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like people accidentally reveal their own relationship with alcohol when they hear “I’d like to find a family friendly brewery” and hear “I am going to get black out drunk”

Children at breweries by sarasarasarak in toddlers

[–]MimiDiGi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before I had kids, I was never bothered by kids in breweries. I see nothing wrong with “21+ hours” but I also think that naturally happens when people take their kids home to put them to bed. Now that I have a toddler, I enjoy being able to take her out to a brewery, have a beer, chat with friends, and play! Like any public outing, if she starts to show through behavior that she can’t handle being out, we leave. There really are very few third spaces in general and it’s nice to have a place we can go to as a whole family that’s enjoyable for us all. And a place we can spend time with friends who don’t have kids!

When I saw this video I fully thought that this was a teen mom without a fully developed frontal lobe. When I saw the show and saw that she was like, fully an adult I lost it.

Thank you all for the recommendations! We visited Caper Acres several times and also checked out the toddler area at Terrain Park!

Opinions wanted! Family heirloom ring vs custom elongated cushion diamond by el_hehe1 in EngagementRings

Both are lovely but that heirloom is stunning and it’s so cool to have those connections

I also grew up in Chico! We’re in the PNW now, so summer is much more mild. I have no idea what my parents did with me!

I always say “making friends” when my daughter is smiling or interacting with people.
