My brother packed two lunches and would sneak breakfast to his friend in elementary school. Once my mom caught on he and his brothers ate dinner with us like 3-5 times a week. They said otherwise they'd have nothing. It broke my heart.
Why can't the post office get it together? I'm just finally starting to get boxes of stuff from the holidays that our parents shipped and stuff shipped last Monday just finally arrived today, except only 1 box of 2 showed up. I'm sure the other will be here tomorrow but come on. The exact same thing happened with another few boxes. 2 showed up 1 day, the other the next. If stuff is shipped together it should arrive together.
Anyone have thoughts on cameras that go straight to your Iphone? Does anyone have one?
That's what we have. Â We have a drop cam and then an app on our phones. Â I love it! Â Nothing extra to carry around and the picture quality when it's dark is much better than on the monitors our friends have (maybe there are better ones out there, I don't know).
Thanks!!! Do you get better range with it ? honestly, on the other side of my house my monitor doesn't even work because it's too far away which is frustrating

As long as I have a wifi signal it's perfect since it's wifi, not whatever frequency monitors are on. So sometimes on our back deck wifi can be a little spotty and that gets tricky but other than that it's not a problem.
SQ, what size are you buying for spring/summer? Like do kids normally go up a size around their birthday or halfway through that year? I miss when clothes were by month, haha.
We're going on vacation in March so I have been looking for warm weather clothes for W but IDK what size to get. She's in a 2T now for length but I have to cinch the waists quite a bit. I worry I'll buy 2s and by summer need 3T.
W locked herself in my office while I peed. That was a fun heartattack while I frantically looked for the key while she giggled on the other side of the door.

That's right. Gooo C-BUS! I love this city.
"Columbus, however, has the best library in the country, the best zoo in the country, the best science center in America, and America’s largest University. This may have led it to being known as the one of the 7 Smartest Cities in the World and why we won the U.S. Department of Transportation $40 million Smart City Challenge. We have so much more potential. We may not be as pretty as Paris or Venice or even New York, but Columbus has personality."

I've been buying some clothes for summer/spring on sale as I see them. M is in 24m stuff now and it's not anywhere close to being grown out so I'm buying 2T.

G is in 24m and 2T stuff now. My friend just gave me a bunch of 2T stuff for our vacation next week. If she doesn't grow out of this stuff by then, I will be buying 3t for the summer.

I've been buying 3T for N but now I'm second guessing it... she just hit a major growth spurt and grew out of all her 2T stuff, which sucks because I have all winter 2t and spring/summer 3t... I just had to go out and buy a bunch of 3T clothes that she can wear now. I'm hoping her growth finally slows down some so she can actually wear these clothes longer than a couple months at a time!!
bwisco123, my mom went through all the same struggles. I get it. Is it the same kid(s) looking for food or just it vary?
It varies by the day. The thing too is it's literally like an hour before lunch. And they get milk from the school. So part of me is like they can have their milk and wait until lunch?! Or bring a snack !
That's tough. I was thinking if it's the same kids you can could see if they are on the free programs. If not, maybe they qualify and their parents have no idea it's an option. Some parents here don't fill out the paperwork.

DH is at like a 15 tonight. I got home and he was bathing J. He took off almost immediately after I took over putting J in his jammies and when I knocked to go into the bathroom to brush Js teeth (the bath was running, so I assumed he was going to relax in the jacuzzi tub, totally fine, no issue) he was like "what the ?!&*, can't I just have a moment of peace alone?"
I told him he needed to take it down a notch and that he was at an 11 and the situation warranted about a 2.
Proceeded to do bedtime with J. I can now hear him draining the tub and prepping to come downstairs. Not really sure what his deal is but he leaves right after work tomorrow for his poker/Super Bowl weekend and won't be back until Monday night. So if anyone gets to be wound, it's the mama who had an absolute gong show week at work and is now facing solo parenting for the next 4 days.
I am so sick of being sick!!!!! Over the past month, MH N and I have all had this cold 3 times!!! Each time we've had it for a few days, then get better for a few days, then come down with it again, then get better for a few days, and so on. This is the 3RD TIME I've been sick with this nasal congestion/burning/watery eyes/sore throat shit and I'm literally about to lose it. I'm soooo over this winter.
I'm not really sure what set him off but he has like zero stress resistance lately. You would think that knowing he's leaving for the weekend he would attempt to be human and not have a meltdown over something so insignificant.
Plus, when was the last time I had time alone that didn't involve domestic responsibilities?! And when I did, it sure AF wasn't 3.5 days worth.
Seriously though, I think he needs to get back to his doctor and start dealing with some shit. He's wound so tight all the time. It's terrible.

End rant.
Ewww, nooo. That was what I had the last week or so and it was awful.
Re: clothes, my kid must be a peanut because she's just growing out of 18m. I have her I'm 24m now because they're all winter clothes and I want to get the use out of them, but they're pretty baggy. I find it so hard to predict future sizes, I just don't shop in advance.
Same for my kid lol. We are easily in 18m clothes, juuuust barely in 24 month, but most 24m pants are just too long and I have to roll up the hems.
I also don't buy in advance unless I see something super awesome.
My kid keeps licking things. I'll wipe down the coffee table, and I turn around and she's licking it. She keeps trying to lick my sisters face, the dog bowl, my iPad. I have no idea why she is doing this all of a sudden- but how gross!!
Same. DS was licking the couch and giggling about just this afternoon. So odd, lol.
Hey guys. I was up half the night with an upset stomach and didn't feel well at work, so I left at noon. It's better now so I'm hoping it's not the dreaded norovirus going around 😷. DNW and even more so DNW for M.
