Me too, I grew up near Middletown. I never put it together that the Kentucky influence was due to the steel mill.

I’m a sucker for nostalgia, this looks pretty good. They managed to get me, a good mix of radiohead and better than Ezra plus my favorite track off license to ill. But it’s contaminated with Disney soundtracks thanks to my 2.5 year old.

I don’t love the show but his advice that rhymes is awesome. “If you have to go potty, stop and go right away. Flush and wash and be on your way”

Good luck! My mom had her first diagnosis at 47 and her second at 63. Luckily it was completely treatable, she’s just had to endure two mastectomies and reconstructions. Luckily, we’re BRCA negative, but there’s still probably a family link since her mother asks had it twice but passed away at 57.

We always had coke salad growing up, made with maraschino cherries and pecans. I don’t know if it was a Mississippi thing or a Kentucky thing. My aunt made it for every big holiday meal. I also remember my grandad making the biscuits for Sunday supper after church when we still lived in Mississippi. He’d roll out the…

I’ve fallen out of the habit of opening the app but it was nice to get walk in kicks at target or another store I was going to anyway. But I always had trouble at Macy’s, the GPS just wouldn’t register I wss there. I probably have a gc I never redeemed out there.

I didn’t love that MNF broadcast but I think Rex Ryan really put a damper on it.

Almost completely off topic, but I saw her speak when I was a high school senior visiting USC. Our flight was a red eye back to the midwest so we had some extra time that evening and could choose between her and Michael Dukakis. Probably sealed the deal that I’d end up going to school there if those were the on-campus…

Oh well, I got it free on Saturday. They only had adult shots but the baby has his 12 month appointment this week so he might get it then.

I’ve always brought my own mat, just in case. I highly recommend finding a relaxation class or level 1 to get started.

Now I have to check this out. My husband and I love this movie and have already taught our daughter to say “Have fun storming the castle!” whenever someone leaves the house. (She also says it to daddy when I’m taking her to day care )

Personally, I’d rather focus on infant care. It’s SO hard to find care for babies under age 2. The most reasonable price I could find is still more than my mortgage for two kids.

We screw everything to the wall, dressers, bookcases, etc. Strap got the tv too

Together for 12 years this month, married for 7.

Infant care is especially hard to find. My day care provider decided to close right before I was going on maternity leave for baby #2. I scrambled and managed to find a space five months later and just kept both kids while on leave. That space is so precious that we’ve kept the kids in care for the past seven months…

You can do it, those first few weeks are the hardest. (Mine are nearly 1 and 2.5 right now). If I had HG, I definitely would have stopped with one kid. As it is, I’m almost done with pumping at work and there’s no way I’d have a third kid if it meant another 8 months (after 4 months maternity leave) of pumping…

Even without twins, my bff and his wife really appreciated me coming over and just holding the baby for them so they could shower, eat, do laundry, etc.

One handed food is the best. I made breast feeding support tote for a friend with Lara bars, a big water bottle, and a back up battery for charging your cell phone.

Even if they don’t clean, I would’ve just loved someone to come wash dishes and take out the garbage.

I agree. First I had the big double stroller so I could click in the car seat and have room for my toddler. After wheeling that behemoth around, my little umbrella stroller and my jogging stroller feel so light and easy to push.
