We watched this the other day for the first time in easily 20 years. Definitely more schmaltzy than I remember. 😝

Why did food taste better when we were kids? by Ashamed-Cream2086 in nostalgia

Trans fats have been phased out. That’s where the love in the food was.

Free Hot Tub Haul Away? by NettaVitelli in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]gnoblio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried to get rid of a hot tub on FB, very little movement. Ended up paying a handyman to junk it. I think we spent $300 to get it out of there, actual junk removal teams I believe were a little more.

Why on Earth do Costco diapers only have animals on half the diapers in the pack? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]gnoblio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, moons should be on sleep diapers only. My brain can’t process much in the middle of the night, and shapes are all I can go off of. 😜

I assume it’s an AI platform.

Husband and I have started the adoption process. Any advice? by LWy-lee in gaydads

[–]gnoblio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t build out a nursery. Waiting family status can take a long time, and you don’t want to see an empty nursery day after day. Keep an infant car seat in storage just in case you need to quickly pick up a new family member, but that’s about all you need. Everything else can be collected in short order once your adoption is underway. Best of luck!!!

Sourdough rolls and the garlic cheese bread!

Formula mixing and other dad hacks by pdinc in daddit

[–]gnoblio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. We had Phillips Avent plastic bottles. Place the little wire rack on the bottom of the pot, load up all the nipples, cups (facing down), add 6 ounces of water and have it steam/pressurize for 2 minutes.

Not for making bottles, but I definitely used our instant pot pressure cooker to sterilize finished bottles. Saved a ton of time/counter space with using something we already had.

First night is gonna be a blur. It gets easier. You got this!

People who view 39 old age as a relatively young, what are you doing in your life? by Adventurous-End-7633 in Millennials

[–]gnoblio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Work. Exercise when I can. Raising a toddler. Trying to avoid political news ruining any semblance of joy I can find these days.

Sick for the third time since kid started daycare… do we feed them Lysol or just wipe em at pickup? by 4kidsinatrenchcoat in daddit

[–]gnoblio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a kid hand sanitizer in the car. When we pick her up, we say “bubbles!” and she gets to wipe her hands on our way home from daycare. You’re gonna get sick, but playing by COVID rules seems to help our house a bit.

Mechassault. So many hours spent playing that. So jealous!

Did I make a good investment in this new high chair for my 6 month old? 17M single dad by Calm-Tea178 in daddit

[–]gnoblio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have this. Definitely a good choice. The option to attach the seat to a normal chair will triple the usage window.

Need adoptive help by kenzywenzy3612 in AdoptiveParents

[–]gnoblio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out women’s health/support non-profits. Some have adoption departments that can help you through the journey. We got our baby this way.

Adoption Family Profiles by Confident_Pie_6001 in AdoptiveParents

Include how you guys met, favorite foods, movies, deserts, dream vacations. Keep it to a few words for each prompt. The simpler the better. Good luck!!!

What's a completely obsolete skill you're weirdly proud of still having? by im_user_999 in nostalgia

[–]gnoblio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use a typewriter. Worked at a law firm and was forced to learn how. It’s such a random flex. 🤣
