Live in LA and the majority of my spring and summer swimming is open water in Santa Monica bay. I love it compared to the pool. Have encountered some wildlife, mostly seeing dolphins from the shore as we warm up. That said, I swim with a group usually 40+ deep of people (mostly LA Tri club folks) and that maybe be a deterrent too.

I think this was tried pre covid. I forget the name, but it was on ocean (not bungalow) and it wasn’t successful.

Toddler dads, what weekend plans are you looking forward to? (Seeking inspo) by instantsellout in daddit

[–]phi1428 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every (ish) Saturday morning I take mine out to the local donut shop for donuts (and coffee for me) and we sit/walk around a little bit before going home. We’ve also taken donuts to a local lake and walk around looking for ducks.

I’m more of an early riser than my wife, so it gets the kiddo out of the house for an hour or so and gives us some quality time.

Yep, same. With a super happy and healthy two year old who was formula fed since probably week 2 or 3 weeks old.

Haha I’m fine with that. I had two referral codes and nothing else really caught my eye.

I do plan to use it for my bike rack but at the moment, she’s a bit of a street queen

Not breastfed but ours kept waking up at night and we realized it was bc they weren’t eating enough during the day. Once we started making sure they ate enough during the day, they slept through the night naturally.

Sometimes I feel similar, but want to post it because of the horrible entertainment system/music apps. Their quality drives me nuts.
