If only I’d gotten this category, maybe I wouldn’t have come in third. (It was actually my inability to ring in that tripped me up. The producers tried to coach me during every break.) My husband was right, I didn’t need to study, I just needed to play street fighter.

I’m guessing it’s Rhiannon with a B at the beginning.

I had the super sleeper too. I had roo wake her to eat as a newborn but she was up twice a night from 8 to 14 months. We had to night wean her to get her sleeping through the night again.

I just listened to this audiobook earlier in the year. The son is a total douchebag so I hope they focus on her story and not his. I really liked the story of the empty nest MILF and her new friendships when she takes a community college class.

Even though my husband is unemployed I give to the local diaper bank every month. When I have the opportunity, I also give boxes of diapers (along with tampons and laundry detergent) to the local domestic abuse charity.

I love Target diapers. My husband made us use Huggies with baby #1 but hasn’t said a word since I switched to all Up and Up, all the time. There’s a great deal right now for the super bulk box. You get a $10 gc when you spend $50 on target brand diapers this week, plus if you use a red card it’s another 15% off for…

My employer covers 80% of my premium but nothing for spouse or children. I took just enough PTO each pay period to cover my insurance while on maternity leave. Luckily I live in California so I got 12 weeks pay at 55% after each birth.

Per kid or for both kids? We pay $365 a week for two kids (exact same ages) because we get a sibling discount. So yes, I pay $19K per year and that’s one of the cheapest around. In-home is much cheaper than a center.

RemindsI me of this week’s bonus call on the better off podcast. Caller made $130k, was putting down her husband’s $85k as an academic, and she didn’t have any extra money to pay off her $40+K student loans on over $200k per year. It was infuriating that Jill didn’t call her on it.

I had a similar membership. The up front payment covered two or three years before the $50/year started

Oh yeah, I forgot about Wally. I love that one but the kids aren’t always as into it. Bobgoblin!

Like using the n-word at Thanksgiving dinner? The worst part is he worked with lots of POC while he was in the Air Force and was very open-minded but then he moved back to Mississippi and became a racist a-hole.

My grandfather wrote my mother a letter in college that she was never going to succeed and she should drop out and go work for the telephone company. She finished her B.A. with a triple major in 3.5 years, got an M.A. within two more years and paid for all of it herself. She also moved back in with them after that…

I think Sesame Street does lowercase too. but I also recommend Super Why. They sound out words as well as use all the letters.

I was surprised that there was a second season of Trolls so quickly. They must have planned to release more at once originally and the back half wasn’t done yet. I don’t love it but my daughter does. She calls it “different Trolls.” She also enjoyed Llama, Llama and either are step up from the Little Baby Bum that my…

exactly. If it comes in our house, we cut the envelope open closely, peek in, and throw it in the trash. Glitter cards have a certain crunch.

I had a roommate that worked as a dancer and she was specifically told “not” to use glitter in her hair or make-up.

I think I’ll keep going to my tailor who charges $5 to hem instead of $140 on pants with snaps. But I’d love to see more pants that come in multiple inseam options.

This is worded a little funny with your bullet points. I first thought it meant do both the 150 minutes of moderate exercise and the 75 minutes of vigorous exercise. I’m currently trying to do a mix of both. I try to take three 10-12 minute walks and one 20 minute walk Monday through Friday with a 45 minute run/walk…

Both that morning feed and last feed before bed were nice for bonding (when he still was interested in nursing) but it was also time spent away from my 2 year old. It’s so nice to just put him in the crib and walk away now or get them both up in the morning and just hand them a cup of milk and some breakfast.
