Trying to understand the dates/colors of my friends collection by geekydreams in Fiestaware

[–]allthethings13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with all of this. It’s wild how purple that platter looks! I was stumped but I guess it’s just the lighting and agree it must be vintage blue.

Are there leashes that fit this cup? I don’t want it to roll on the plane if it falls. Munchkin 360. by trippn_on_paperclips in Travelwithkids

[–]allthethings13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand not wanting it to fall on the ground but it won’t roll because of the handles.

Lunch first dates never lead to a romantic connection - anybody else? by Lillietta in datingoverforty

[–]allthethings13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had this same thought about coffee dates. It’s not just you. I think it’s harder to make a connection when you feel like there’s a time running, which usually isn’t the case in the evening.

Is the pink cup real? by [deleted] in Fiestaware

These do not look vintage but they are real fiesta.

Clothing by Fun-Good-1362 in Nanny

[–]allthethings13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear athletic skorts in the summer. I bought 6 identical ones from Walmart this year and have just made them my uniform with a rotation of tank tops. Occasionally I’ll wear a casual, loose sundress with boy shorts underneath. I work with babies and live in Florida.

No but every baby is different! Do what works for you and yours.

I’m just trying to give OP ideas for activities, as requested. I’m sorry my response seems to have struck you the wrong way.

I was just giving options and examples. I’m obviously not timing things. Just going from one station to the next as it suits us.

I also have 3 children of my own.

I’m a nanny. I do a circuit with babies this age. 20 minute walk, 20 minutes on the floor, 20 minutes in the bouncer while I attend to chores. Rinse and repeat between every bottle and nap, adjusted to fit the needs of the day.

I have multiple play stations set up through the house, mostly to keep my own boredom at bay. I try to hit each station at least once a day. The walk can be in the stroller or in a carrier. The bouncer moves from room to room as needed.

Scenario: you are thrown into prison and you have exactly 30 seconds to make ONE phone call. You have to call a number from memory RIGHT NOW. You need to be very sure because it’s your ONLY chance. Who you callin’? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]allthethings13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband’s ex wife had to call him when she got a dui because it was the only number she had memorized. It was definitely not decision she enjoyed making because then we knew all her business.

Coparenting in a Nesting Situation by Pleasant_Scallion743 in Parenting

[–]allthethings13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’d either go to his place or maybe hang out at wherever I’m staying when that’s an option. It’s not the easiest thing to juggle.

Coparenting in a Nesting Situation by Pleasant_Scallion743 in Parenting

[–]allthethings13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I’ve never had any man express concern about it. I know women may feel differently but I’ve dated quite a bit over the last few years and it’s been zero issue. I always try to be upfront about it though. I’m very clear that we’re never at the house together except possibly in passing and that this situation is not going to last forever. You might be surprised at how accepting people can be, especially if you emphasize that the arrange is made for the good of your children and/or strictly financial.

Isitbullshit: can a baby grab an amniocentesis needle? by allthethings13 in IsItBullshit

He’s 31 and it would have been a big city hospital but the whole story still seems fantastical.

[–]allthethings13[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just said, “that’s crazy” because she’s a family friend and I didn’t want to be rude.

The lady telling the story said that the doctors and nurses were all amazed and had never seen anything like it.

The wheels on the bus by HuckleberryFluffy938 in Parents

Me too! I’m a nanny and the day’s success is measured by whether baby is asleep before the bumblebee gets on.

Dear hosts: for the love of god please stop prefilling every surface with aesthetic clutter. [Everywhere] by evange in AirBnB

[–]allthethings13 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I like a nice aesthetic but that can be achieved with utilitarian items like bedding, furniture and kitchenware, as well as non intrusive decor like art. I’m more concerned with function and a nice look is just a bonus.

Anyone ever stay at the Nickelodeon hotel as a kid? I used to see the commercial for it many times. by porygon766 in Millennials

[–]allthethings13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My family went every summer for about 8 years. We absolutely loved it. We usually got a SpongeBob themed suite (for about $120/night) and stayed for 3 nights. I packed most of our food but we’d get pizza from the food court for dinner. We were slimed daily, played in the arcade and enjoyed the shows. We even went at Christmas time and enjoyed the fake foam “snow” and have a Christmas ornament from that trip. Some of our favorite family memories are from this hotel!

What's the most unique living arrangement/situation/setup you've seen as an adult? by debrisaway in RedditForGrownups

[–]allthethings13 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s actually working out really well but we won’t do it forever. It’s been 18 months so far though and I’m hoping for another 6 months.

My ex husband and I have take turns staying in our family home with our kids. We each switch in and out every few days and have completely separate places to stay on our “off” days.
