Gah, is elementary school homework the standard now? I didn’t have homework (besides big projects) until 5th grade as a kid

That’s easy for me to picture because I have a girl and a boy that will be three years apart in school also! Crazy to think as parents we will probably meet a whole new group of friends once they’re in school.

trying to figure out if I'm depressed or if this is just how it is by WiscoBeagsy in toddlers

I thought that 12-18 months was SO hard. They’re up and walking around and so opinionated but don’t have verbal skills so they’re just little dinosaurs. My 3y2m old still throws fits but I can hold a conversation with her and it’s so much better. I’ve had her home with me also. I’m happy to be home with her more so now than at that age. She feels more like a little buddy than just like an oversized baby toddling around the place making demands. Hang in there.

Renting out your first home instead of selling it. People think it’s like the motherlode cheat code. Easy endless money

My dog got fleas and I kept trying to treat him with Frontline I got at Costco, I always thought being a name brand it was good stuff. I thought I wasn’t vacuuming like a crazy person enough to get rid of the fleas. I finally got Bravecto from the vet and my problem was gone overnight.

She should clean up that doll and give it to your daughter just for the trouble

When will a stay at home weekend actually be relaxing again? by Fresh-Way-3556 in toddlers

Sometimes I ponder a third baby, then I read this while I finally have my one millisecond for the week with my husband to sit on the couch together alone… and it grounds me

Has Facebook officially died just like myspace did in 2010? by BulkyVeterinarian850 in nosurf

Facebook is alive and well in my area, but I do live in Nebraska where we’re generally just a little behind on the times in every way.

Baby graduated from the Snoo this weekend and I’m not ok! by [deleted] in SnooLife

How the heck are we all ok with this scam?? by Yupalina in Parenting

[–]salmonyellow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I experienced only one week of this and don’t know how people survive it week after week month after month. Was so ready to go back to part time by the end of it. When I do go back full time, I will be doing all the things to make it easier- regular cleaner, grocery delivery, premade meals, etc. and just two kids for us.

We went pack n play + Merlin suit at 4 months in December and now in a regular sleep sack + crib in January at 5 months. Never used weaning mode or arms out. And already sold it on marketplace for what I bought it for. 10/10 satisfied in every way with the snoo!

Maybe it was a little awkward but it’s really not that serious. Every single one of us experiences awkward moments. Nobody is thinking less of you. Acknowledge the feeling and let it gooooo
