I'm now scared to stop breastfeeding thanks to peachsmama and yummeecookee . When I stopped with S I was down to only morning and night and one morning i skipped bc mh let me sleep in, then we were out that night. The next day I thought well it's been 36 hours, I might as well stop. It never hurt, I never leaked, nothing. It was a total non event. I pray it's that easy this time! Yeah, I think it took me about 2 weeks this time...along with a milk blister...and mastitis...not delightful at all. Yes I remember your experience as well. Terrible. I thought maybe your experience was also bad bc it was earlier. I remember the first 6/7 months or so I would hurt and still get engorged if I missed a feeding or pump. Then it went away. But hearing the others' experience I'm not so sure the timing had anything to do with it!

mwhip I didn't pick him up but he didn't go on the potty at all. He also talked back and didn't listen at all. cagoldi she didn't comment at all. I think she didn't believe me. When I dropped him off today his friend tommy was there. He hasn't been there since December so he was super happy and he said he wanted to show him what a big boy he is so hopefully today is better. calimocho Happy Birthday. Also I'm looking for options but so far nothing in my price range. I can't pay a nanny more then I can make in a day. But I'm still looking Yeah, I think this age can be a big challenge for in home providers because they're less structured and that probably isn't very conducive to being able to PT. Do you want me to ask around? I have a few friends with kids that are in Anaheim area schools. I think that they're all going to say the same thing about preschool and PT being a requirement but it doesn't hurt to check? FX he can be accident free today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Do you ever think it's funny what songs the kids really seem to take to?
Xander loves Jefferson Airplane's White Rabbit. So random.

I haven't read yet, but anyone have any SUPER quick appetizer ideas? We have a couple friends coming over tonight and I'm going to be in a big time crunch so looking for something easy to throw together in 5 minutes. My fall back is veggies and hummus.

I have 2 go-to's. One being mini caprese skewers, which is just a cherry tomato cut in half with a mozzarella ball and basil leaf stuck in between, with balsamic and olive oil drizzled over them. The other is a brie en crut, which is just wrapping a brie wheel in puff pastry and putting some combo of nuts and jam on top before you close up the pastry. #notfancy

joelies I was going to say the same! wineallthetime Another one is spoons with a little prosciutto, argula salad, pesto and mozzarella. Or slices of melon wrapped in Parma ham. Assortment of cheeses, crackers and grapes. Store bought blini's with a little smoked salmon and creme fresh with horse radish. Tortilla chips with salsa and guacamole.

I've had the same experience with ds, fingers crossed this time it's the same. I was down to nursing both boys only at night. Colin weaned within a week and Chase kept nursing for a month, until I decided to stop. Both were super easy on me, probably because of the gradual stepping down.

So that wedding is this weekend and I've been sort of hoping a dress would just materialize in my closet. Spoiler alert - it didn't. I just spent about $200 on a dress, clutch and shoes with expedited shipping. FX I like it otherwise I am totally screwed.

Green Onion Parmesan Dip is always a hit, serve with Rice thins, or any other basic cracker because the dip is a strong flavour www.canadianliving.com/food/recipe/green-onion-parmesan-dip-2Bruschetta with crusty bread Shrimp and dip

Happy Birthday calimocho! Glad A seems better this morning cagoldi. Def send Pete for removal! Off work today and tomorrow but headed to our place in AR to do some work. Update on summer services for S. The special education coordinator went and spent a few hours observing S. Then met with the day care owner and teacher. Then met with her school superintendent (for funding purposes). They definitely see the need for OT services for summer. But not speech or PT. I'm okay with that. OT was my biggest concern. We have a meeting Thursday morning to amend the IEP to include summer services. Services will start July 1! I will be asking more about the possibility of an aide for her during the school year then.

Exact same, except I think we went out of town. B just lost interest about 10-11 months. He didn't seem to miss it after we stopped. I think C will be a tougher customer, but I hope I'm wrong!
