Hi ladies. Sorry for my sporadicism (if that is a word, the red underline is telling me that it's not but, meh, who cares!) around here lately.

I have been "thinking too much" probably for the...

Elle goes to the YMCA preschool and it is VERY good. They have a sliding fee scale here. I would check them out. I also like that our school is very diverse as we live in a pretty segregated city...

I don't think it is too harsh at all. I probably would have taken the puzzles too.

I agree with the above about following through on threats.

I really don't have many issues with my kids discipline wise. I have pretty easy expectations of them IMO that are age appropriate and...

Honestly, I don't care if my DH takes our daughter into a men's room. I would never have thought to even tell him to go into a ladies room with our daughter and I doubt he would do it if I suggested...

Ky and Elle recently had to share a room and it was total chaos so I understand your plight. Luckily they don't get out of bed after bedtime. That is just a rule of ours and they cannot have a...

You should have seen the videos Mandy. They were outrageous!!! My cousin said she would just pick up random guys and bring them home. One of them approached my cousin for a threesome! And that...

I agree you're not crummy Myles. To make you feel better and to make myself look kind of bad, I will admit that I am a horrible little kid (like 3+ years old) "I'm-scared" sort of mom. I think...

I also don't cater to my kids and I also have a husband who is antagonistic with the children. I will say things to him sometimes but most of the time I don't. I let him and them have their own...

I am a HUGE Martha Stewart fan, something most people who know me think is crazy but I just love her for some reason. I was sooooo pissed off when they took her show off of NBC like 5 or 6 years ago...

LOL Mandy. Hopefully she was just wanting to get them together because they have a lot in common and may bond over their tongue sucking experiences lol.

Practically all our utility companies are...

I know a rock guy too Mandy lol. Rocks are much more expensive. Luckily here everything is pretty cheap IMO. The truckload of dirt is going to only set us back $80 which is pretty good IMO for the...

Elle also has a great memory. She is 4 and can remember things that happened when she was 1 year old and couldn't walk. It is really freaky lol.

She also is super smart. I think I am blinded by...

So sorry about your dog.

I hope your little girl is better soon. Your OP scared me, I would be extremely scared if something like that happened to any kid I know. Our little cousin stopped...

Yes, I have missed you all. Even when my aunt was staying with us and I didn't have much time to type, I still kept up with my lurking, but since the internet was down for over a week, I haven't...

Hi all. I finally got my internet back working. After cursing AT&T and actually calling Comcast and being willing to shell out $50 a month for internet (which is a CRAZY consideration for me being...

I can never remember a time when I didn't feel like religion couldn't be explained. But I felt that I should believe and I tried to do so for many years. I even read the entire bible as a 10 year...

Elle is also going through this now. She is 4.5. She looks heartbroken over practically everything. Even though it is bad, I think it is pretty funny most of the time, I don't laugh at her though,...

Only at the table/in the kitchen. This also goes for drinks and any snacks. For special occasions like movie nights, I will let the kids eat snacks and not as messy meals, like chicken tenders or...

We make TV watching very limited. I tell Elle it is because I want her to develop a super imagination and learn to do more things than watch TV. Even though she loves her some Clifford, she seems...

Hey people! Haven't had time to catch up in here. I had a great time for my birthday in the Myrtle Beach area and am planning on going back for DHs and Elle's birthday because all of us enjoyed it...

Kai is a hoot lol!!! I would probably egg him on, I am also very dramatic. My Ky sometimes even takes my dramatics seriously when I am being obviously, overtly dramatic. He is WAY too serious for...

Mandy, that is really strange about what is going on at your job. I hope however it turns out that you will like whatever position you decide to take there. Very strange though that someone has a...

I also hope it is a joke thing Chrissy I would probably be nutso mom if I saw that. Y'all speaking of my cleaning has reminded me that I am not cleaning how I used to since my relatives are around. ...

Forgot to mention that reading that article makes me want to move back to Ohio. Their cutoff is 10/1 and Elle would be in kindergarten if we were in Ohio. She would probably be the youngest, but I...
