amichelle723 - I'm sorry! I loved Gremlins. Then again, I was watching all kinds of horror films at a young age.

I'm tired of giving my toddler food only to gage him throw it all over the floor.

jedi, I have heard zulily can have a slow ship time, so order accordingly. I have had good luck getting snow boots at thrift stores here. They're destroyed after one season (6 months of winter here with daily use), so I don't like to spend a lot.

aydee I'm sorry! That sounds so stressful. I hope it gets better soon. Is it an issue with the nanny? or the transition?

aydee - That is stressful. Is there a way to supervise their day some how? Not with a nanny cam, but something that you can see how they are interacting together? Maybe it just isn't a good match? Maybe it is just a phase?

jedi zulily is the bomb and their shipping has gotten has gotten a lot faster. It can be a few weeks for some items, but if you don't think you'll need the boots in the next 2/3 wells I would go with them.

aydee, get a nanny cam. My friend waited six months for it to get better. It didn't. Nothing sinister was going on, she just felt her son wasn't getting enough interaction/attention after watching the cam.

Night 1 of solo parenting. It took K until 7 to eat her dinner (lunchable she picked out. Mother of the year here.) Let kids play outside for about 25 minutes, K dumped dirt in her hair. Had ice cream for dessert. Got baths. Skyped with H briefly. Read 1 book each and both are in bed with lights out at 840.

I also like Zulily! Plus I think before you actually place the order, you can get estimated shipping dates. It is kind of complicated for me to explain but I think the site explains why, it just has to do with how they run the business.
I ordered some Halloween shirts for E and I from there and they shipped this week, I can't wait to get them. They are black t shirts with print on the front like a X-ray to show what is in our bellies...a baby for me and candy for E! And I found one for DH on Amazon showing beer and pizza. We did a family Halloween theme last year so those will be our "costumes" this year.

mrspiatt there are names and phone numbers in your pics. I understand you're on a tight timeline and emotions are high and everything seems to be going wrong but there's nothing there that makes me think this guy is awful. He's coming as soon as he can and next day at that.
