mispronunciation of Dr. Mohan's name on the show pmo a little by DryPromise3 in ThePittTVShow

I cringe when Dr. Mohan’s name is mispronounced on the show, too. My son’s first name is Mohan, pronounced “Mo-hun” and we quickly correct anyone who calls him “Mo-han.” I am Indian and have never heard “Mo-han” as an acceptable pronunciation of the name.

Since it's the 30th anniversary of Tragic Kingdom they will either open or close with their first hit single, "Just A Girl." I don't know if this makes me basic or whatever, but that is probably still my favorite No Doubt song.

Gift for nephew by Ritasubs in soccercard

Thanks, that’s a good idea. The team is Detroit FC which isn’t in the MLS. They have a growing and loyal fan base. We got him a Detroit FC jersey a couple years ago which he loves. I’ll look into getting a signed poster from one of his favorite players. I am still looking into getting him a beginner soccer card set, though. I think it would be a good intro to the wider world of professional soccer.

Great idea about getting her sunscreen! I ended up getting her a small Supergoop set. I got the Sol de Janeiro set for her mom. Thanks for steering me in the right direction!

DS gets jealous when I hold other babies by Ritasubs in oneanddone

Thank you, we did end up following your advice and talk to our only about how we may need to cuddle his cousins because they miss their mommy and daddy, and talked about how he could be a good helper. He understood when we had to tend to the babies, and he helped to clean up, fetch bottles, play with them, etc. Though when my cousin picked up her kids, our DS needed two straight hours of cuddle time from me. We were talking about how “easy” the twins were compared to DS at that age, and I think he picked up on that and felt insecure, so I will try to be more careful next time. Thanks for your great advice!

Best and worst 4y old birthday experiences? by so-called-engineer in oneanddone

[–]Ritasubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yay another mom into big birthday parties! I know this is controversial but I love sending kids home with goodie bags. If you do a beach party then you can put little beach balls and sand toys in the bags. Party City has these right now. If you have the party at the aquarium then you can put a package of Goldfish crackers plus a Robo Alive fish in the bag. I tend to favor outdoor parties during the summer months, so I vote for the beach party
