I have two kids, and I consider it a success if there's not fruit flies buzzing around and 75% of the floor is visible...
I have 4 kids. No such thing as a "clean" house. More like organized clutter with a sprinkle of Legos....
My question is, when did kids start getting gifts for Easter? I remember getting chocolate and going on the egg hunt. And I loved it. We really ought to limit gifts to two times per year—birthdays and the respective traditional religious gift-giving holiday. Increasing it to every holiday out there only makes us more…

If a bunch of white guys were complaining about Indians playing DND and saying it was a game for white people only, Indians aren't good at it and therefore Indian men shouldn't butt in, you'd call that racist right? You'd be offended that your skill level was perceived as non-existent based on your ethnicity wouldn't…
I'm going to go ahead and admit it: my boyfriend has more hobbies and interests than I do. He mountain bikes more, chats with his internet communities more, and listens to more music. A lot of the time I feel I honestly don't have time for hobbies. I could be combing through new music on Spotify every day, but I have…
Does anyone want to put money on how many of these stories will take place in Chicago or Boston?
Haha, they spelled "cids" wrong.
My spouse likes horror movies, I don't. I've traveled alone, she hasn't. I'm more chuck it all (though it wouldn't involve a boat) and she's more stability.
Gotta love the NHS. I had two tours of the birthing center with my first kid, a few weeks of pre-natal classes, a private room and then they had a "reunion" of all the moms and babies in that birth class. My next two kids were born at home with the midwives at my house. Cost me a fat zero. Congrats on your pregnancy,…
The Alzheimer's Association has some great (but depressing) support forums at alzconnected.org. They also have an 800 number that you can call for advice. Even from so far away, there are ways you can help your stepmom deal with this. I have a monthly support group for caregivers at the local hospital, and that really…
Just getting this out here, especially for new and expecting mothers: as long as you love your child and have their best interests at heart, whatever decision you make about them is fine. You will screw up at times and will have to make the least worst choice when faced with very crappy options, but unless if you're…
I ran what he said about Rob Lowe in a quick Baldwin > Sane People translator and I'm fairly sure it was really:
I just feel like I need to say this: After your children are born, your happiness should now be second to theirs. Your childrens' needs should always come first, and a prospective parent should consider that before making such a huge commitment!
Benedict Cumberbatch does nothing for me, you ladies can have at him.
I was watching The Outsiders a few weeks ago (man were Tom Cruise's teeth jacked up!) and that movie was stuffed with hotties. Rob Lowe, Matt Dillon, Patrick Swayze... goddddammmn! I hadn't watched it in a long time and boy was it super-sensitive and emotional; it was a movie about rough boys and gang fighting.
The answer as a parent is you get out the camera as quickly as possible and capture that moment before they notice you're recording. The second they start paying attention to you, it's over and you don't get it back. Little Beans figured out what the camera was at about 10 months and would stop doing whatever she was…
You are fabulous, and your children are going to be fabulous. Thank you. <3
on a ski trip a few years back we took space bags that are compressible by vacuum. of course we had to make sure we would have a vacuum on the other end... but they allowed us to fit more equipment in a small amount of luggage!
