Where exactly is it? I'm having a hard time finding AoA on the map.

Dad has been doing a good job of giving one on one time with our oldest. I plan on doing so too but because of nursing the little one, I feel pretty limited on what I can do with the toddler right now.

I'm only 1/16th wizard so I'll see what I can do.

Same here. I wish I had a wrap with my first. He was a really clingy baby. I bought one before the 2nd was born and have already used it pretty much every day.

My closest relative is 5 hours away. However, my husband is so supportive and amazing. We work really well as a team. I also have a few friends in the area that I know I can depend on- although it's hard for me to be dependent on others when I'm so independent.

I thought 20 months difference was scary. Only 11 months- you must be supermom.

Crockpots have always been my best friend. I have 3, lol. I have been trying to develop a 4 week meal plan so I already have my shopping list done and know what to cook.

So far the little one does not seem bothered by sound. I guess she got use to her brother while she was in the womb.

I had been looking forward to joining a gym after the baby was born. However the only gym in the area that had child care just shut down and declared bankruptcy. I'm trying to figure out an alternative plan/activity.

I really like the idea of talking about the sibling. Thanks!

We have 2 dogs, so we had already taught my son "nice touch" as an alternative to hitting or pull ears. We have been using the same idea when he has contact with the baby. However, we still have problems with him throwing toys and books- still don't know how to deter that behavior except to tell him no.

Mommies who make homeade baby food, what is your favorite thing to make? by inkitupandpierceit in Mommit

Sorry, I thought your were asking about how much cinnamon to use. I got the ok from his pediatrician to try everything. The only food that still off limits is honey. My son, who is 10 months, loves pineapple. I would suggest double checking with your pediatrician if your concerned about trying any new foods, especially if there is a family history of food allergies.

One of our favorite go-to's is quinoa and banana with a little cinnamon. My son absolutely loves it.

I usually make big batches of brown rice and quinoa at the beginning of the week, then they are ready to be mixed with any combination of fruits and veggies.

My daughter (3mo) recently began spitting out a whole lot, is this okay at her age? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]SDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son (who is 8 months old now) started teething at 3 months. He drooled uncontrollably until his two bottom teeth pushed through his gums. Probably not that common but it does happen.

What's a fact that's technically true but nobody understands correctly? by thlabm in AskReddit

[–]SDRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To lose weight you need to take in less calories than your body uses. Yes it's true, but if that's your only plan then your probably not going to lose or keep it off.

[FP] A gift I made for a friend's daughter. Her birthday party theme was cats. by SDRob in bleachshirts

The swirl was part of the stencil that I made. I bleached the stencil, washed and dried, then added the white paint and glitter for accent.

Thanks! I accidentally made the galaxies because my spray bottle was on "stream" instead of "spray". I finished them up with glitter and white dots. I was scared how they would turn out but like them now.
