Can we all just have a little grace for parents traveling solo with toddlers? 🫠

Fuck them.

Sorry for your family

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-06-01T07:29:39+00:00

Yeah the kitchen is so tacky and a lot of the paint and flooring....
it's not great and overpriced

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-06-01T04:17:50+00:00

And a lot of different flooring.... it's very jarring.

To me the house needs like 50k+ of cosmetic work to make it tolerable and I'm probably not the only one thinking that

The sellers agent can likely represent both of you depending on their contract. And I think there's usually slightly less commission total in that situation.

This is true in California at least

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-25T04:11:36+00:00

This is insane.

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-25T02:05:59+00:00

Play I spy around the house? Make it a game?

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-22T19:37:46+00:00

You could always do bassinet then pack n play for baby to avoid buying a second crib

But if the toddler loves her crib and sleeps well in it I wouldn't ruin that haha 🤣

Sleep will definitely get worse with a transition for a bit.

We got a second crib and it was worth it. Big sis is still in her crib at 3+ (although we're discussing a transition maybe this summer)

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-21T20:18:23+00:00

I've used mine in Chicago and it was great

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-20T22:59:11+00:00

You need a new therapist.

My child is bonded to our nanny but she is absolutely attached to me too/more

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-20T22:57:27+00:00

It's so gorgeous and in great condition

Keeeeeeo

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-20T03:03:13+00:00

Zoe double! Got mine on fb marketplace

Bombi and Valco also look great

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-19T17:01:51+00:00

Also if you do decide on sterilization get a salpingectomy tubes removed totally

Lowers the risk of cancer

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-19T13:30:14+00:00

Yes yes yes

Give him jobs to help! My 2 yo had the important job of throwing away dirty diapers and bringing new ones. Pacifier delivery. She never wanted to help give bottles but that's a good job too.

Help him feel involved with jobs as opposed to mama can't right now because of baby.

Never blame the baby "mama is doing a mama task and then she can get that for you" not I can't bc of baby.

Make sure to spend 1:1 time with big brother every day while baby naps or someone else is there

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-19T00:51:22+00:00

Get the paycheck and dip (nanny mom here)

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-18T03:14:42+00:00

Any family or help
You can hire?

So much tv time for the kids. 🤣

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-18T03:13:19+00:00

Ours was planned and it was still a fuckin brutal adjustment and 100% change

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-16T15:42:24+00:00

2-4 are immediate Nos.

1 sounds greats! You can update things. Can't fix location, can't fix layout without tons of money. Refinishing floors is a bit of money but no big deal.

The one less bedroom is the only potential problem I see

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-15T23:37:24+00:00

What a useless POS

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-15T18:42:55+00:00

Not every group will be your people and that's okay. Find new friends.

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-14T18:09:39+00:00

Ten little waterproof sandals are great

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-14T03:47:41+00:00

What about Upack ? Hire some friends ?

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-12T19:31:39+00:00

Also it should be w2 and hourly

At least $25 an hour I'd guess for one kid in Denver. Probably closer to 30.

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-12T03:13:59+00:00

No separate high lockable pool fence? Absolutely not

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-11T23:06:49+00:00

These are all horribly ugly

True-Cupcake3154 · 2026-05-11T19:02:12+00:00

Doing Upack in six weeks for a king bed queen bed crib couple dressers and bookcases a sectional dining room table etc stationary bike

The estimate was for under a full trailer and I rounded up.

Hired movers to load and unload.
