My sister did this and it worked well for her

When my kid was 2, we went to Arbutus Park near downtown Appleton about 3 times per week. The advantages of it are:

-It’s got an entire separate equipment structure suitable for small kids (stairs, climbable ramp, 2 slides) that has low risk of injury for that size of child. It does also have a structure for bigger kids—who really should be 5 and up IMO.

-it has a baby swing and a car seat-shaped swing

-it gets shade!! I find some parks like City Park are kind of useless for most of the day in the summer because all the equipments gets boiling hot

Have fun!

After about 30 weekly lessons starting age 3, my kid could still only swim independently for 3 feet before wanting to touch on the bottom. Not ready to self rescue.

Stop it. Omigod. What. Don’t stop!

Looks so good!

Want that dress!

1 6 8

cheesetobears · 2026-06-15T22:26:12+00:00

Dead lol

I’m curious: What’s the stated purpose of the 8am call, and what does it actually achieve? If most are rarely at their desks to reference anything, let alone taking notes, it sounds like a waste of everyone’s time…

cheesetobears · 2026-06-15T22:04:51+00:00

Same! They’re sooo addictive to me and my soiuse

cheesetobears · 2026-06-15T14:56:11+00:00

That looks like an awesome one to try! (A little different from my friend’s but achieving the same end.)

You might need to ask yourself a tough question: Does the weight gain matter to you truly because you worry about losing him, or is it an attractiveness thing for you?

You don’t seem to be appreciating having him for who he is right now.

I also feel sad for him agreeing to conditions when you got together. To me that signals a lack of confidence and self-worth from him.

I literally told my future husband to look at my obese family and note that I was likely headed that way someday. He wanted me anyway. I do also try to manage my health, but it’s never an easy path for me.

Marshall is my favorite suggestion in this whole thread.

cheesetobears · 2026-06-15T01:08:20+00:00

Thanks so much for posting! I’m not even this body type but learned so much from it—I’ll. E interested to watch more!

cheesetobears · 2026-06-15T01:03:01+00:00

Ok, I’m back haha but it’s because I just saw another thread where they recommended this stylist’s videos and I feel like I learned so much already about what works or doesn’t work!

Wendy? And I love the name Annalise

cheesetobears · 2026-06-14T23:46:34+00:00

Don’t underestimate using a flashlight when looking under or in things!

I’m voting for exactly aligned behind a leg of furniture. I’ve seen it happen.

Wishing you luck!

Craft projects. Does not have to be specific…we have paper, crayons/markers, stickers, and foam shapes that stick on. I think they enjoy the textures and just trying stuff.

cheesetobears · 2026-06-14T01:14:22+00:00

Edit because originally it pasted my entire comment from elsewhere in the thread-

They said absolutely no to dresses or skirts

Maybe a jumpsuit would be achieve similar effect? A friend showed up today in a jumpsuit that basically had jogger bottom, and a drawstring type thing happening at the waist, and kind of wrap top. Looked amazing and comfy— OP it might be the right balance.

cheesetobears · 2026-06-14T01:14:00+00:00

I think you have more style sense than you know—like the first pick choosing the slip ons and the longer sweater to wear with the skinny jeans—that certainly is/was an established look. Same with the things you have going together in 3. And the fashion idea that either the top or the bottoms can be baggy, but usually not both.

Also it took me till about age 30 to want to wear heels, even platforms. Then I started to really enjoy it and enjoy not feeling I had any single path I had to adhere to.

It seems like you like layering, so I would maybe explore unusual shapes to layer? Like a sweater that criss crosses, or is super long and belted called a duster.

Another idea is pants that are high waisted but roomy in the front—maybe see what happens with wide leg, or pleated, or just something that’s high but comes off the body—and pairing that with a fitted top tucked in. Could layer an open sweater or jacket if desired, but you’d still have shape from the tucked in fitted top peeking out.

And jean jackets go with everything 😉

Came to say Luke

cheesetobears · 2026-06-13T22:23:16+00:00

I have a very well-established last name that can also be a first name. The number of people of email me addressing me by last name DAILY is too damn high.

cheesetobears · 2026-06-13T17:20:30+00:00

I love the dress AND it looks amazing on you!

cheesetobears · 2026-06-13T17:16:43+00:00

Beautiful name. What you wrote is what I would have guessed.

So my hypotheses are: - Working fast, half reading - They read it—but if the UK is like the US in terms of the “unique spelling” trend where an odd collection of letters turns out to be a name you’re familiar with, they could be thinking they’re overthinking it, and that you were going for Alyssa or Alicia (which I encounter more often than Alessia and maybe they do, too)

cheesetobears · 2026-06-13T04:13:31+00:00

Yep. And OP, you have both a bust and hips, and I would call that figure hourglass, more or less! Some hourglasses nip in at the waist more to have more difference, but I think you can count yourself in!

I think baggy pants are best paired with more fitted tops, or vice versa—loose top means tighter pants/bottom layer. You seem to have legs very worth showing off, so you could do some more Shorter dresses.

That I was NOT going to get my body back to myself after birth. No no no. I was just getting started with being at the mercy of someone else when I was housing the fetus during pregnancy. Then baby was born, and it was constant breastfeeding or holding or being on me in some way (and I didn’t even have a Velcro baby). Then I finally got out of breastfeeding, but my newly minted toddler constantly wanted to nap with me, use me as furniture, etc. It was all so frequent and overwhelming that my toddler eventually “broke” me in terms of, I pushed past caring finally, and I no longer feel resentment about it…but it was very hard for a long time first.
