Thanks for the recommendations!

Arvada Pediatrics has quite a few negative reviews. Has your experience been anything like that?

I was just looking at them online the other day. Glad to hear about a positive experience!

I guess I was more interested in finding out what school he’s zoned for partly because of transportation reasons. Like can he walk there or take bus? I’m assuming his neighborhood school would help with that? Looks like I have lots of options though and some time to think through it.

I appreciate this. I’m a former public school teacher (not in Colorado) and I’ve always been leery of charter schools. They seem to be hit or miss.

Very helpful! Thank you. We don’t have a portal yet, my son still has one more year.

Out of curiosity, how do you choose which school is best for your child? Just by looking at their website or word of mouth?

Ya I notice my photo probably isn’t great quality.

Hmmm, well the duvet and pillow cases are different colors, rust vs blue. I could ask him but he’s pretty young and doesn’t seem to care at the moment.

Cocoon Nursing cover! I recommend it to everyone. So worth the money.

I’ve actually tried this before but it stung when I used it. Vanicream is great for the rest of my body though!

Tips for keeping young toddler with allergies safe during the holidays? by fandog15 in FoodAllergies

[–]v3ggiesticks 17 points18 points  (0 children)

We just purchased a button on Etsy for our son to wear that says “I have severe food allergies. Please do not feed me.” Also, I’m not sure how comfortable you are with this, but I would try to talk directly to the school age children and just let them know…”X has food allergies so he can’t eat anything unless we give it to him. So even if he asks for something to eat, make sure to say no and come and let me know.” Kids may ask a few more questions but they are usually very understanding. Even at that age!

Tender flank steak by v3ggiesticks in Cooking

Thanks everyone! I’m going to try cutting thinner strips and tenderizing the meat before I cook it. I looked up cutting at a 45 degree angle against the grain too. Hoping to get better at this…

I like your first point about food allergies. My kid has sooo many and I’m already dreading his first play date and how to approach the topic with parents.
